Astaxanthin Market Size & Share Analysis

Astaxanthin can be produced naturally or synthetically. Regardless of its abundant presence in natural sources, the traditional method of producing astaxanthin comprises chemical synthesis from petrochemicals. However, due to the recent shift in the global market toward “all-natural ingredients,” natural sources such as algae, yeast, and marine animals are increasingly utilized for the production of astaxanthin. Synthetic astaxanthin dominates the market as the product is economical as compared to naturally derived astaxanthin. However, despite its high cost, the natural astaxanthin market is growing at an exponential rate and is expected to overtake the market of its synthetic counterpart.

Astaxanthin Market Growth Dynamics

Drivers: Increasing demand for cosmetics products

There has been a significant increase in the global cosmetic industry as a result of the rising spending power of consumers across the globe. This growth is majorly seen in developing countries such as China, India, and Brazil. The demand for skin whitening products and the growing consumption of cosmetics in the rural and semi-urban areas are the major driving factors for the cosmetic industry in these countries. The trend of nutricosmetics and cosmeceuticals is gaining popularity, specifically in developed countries such as the US Canada.

Additionally, consumers across the globe are becoming more aware of nutritional products that contribute to skin health and disease prevention.

Restraints: Lack of R&D activities in under developed countries

The lack of research and development in African countries such as South Africa, Egypt, and Nigeria has led to low adoption of astaxanthin in these regions. European countries such as UK and Spain witness the highest carotenoid consumption. There is an increase in product innovation and exploration of new applications of carotenoids in the region. However, the penetration is significantly low, and no R&D activities are carried out to improvise the techniques for extracting astaxanthin in the underdeveloped countries in Africa. Hence, most astaxanthin manufacturers do not have production facilities in the region.

The standard of living of the people is low in underdeveloped countries such as Bangladesh and Cambodia, which does not enable the people to spend more on healthcare and supplements to improve their health, and the awareness levels regarding the benefits of using astaxanthin are also low in these regions.

Opportunities: Government initiatives to support aquaculture

The aquaculture industry is growing due to various initiatives undertaken by the governments of distinguished countries worldwide. For instance, in India, the Ministry of Agriculture is responsible for the planning, monitoring, and funding of centrally sponsored developmental schemes related to fisheries and aquaculture in all Indian states. It provides an opportunity for the Indian aquaculture industry to focus on enhancing the country’s aquaculture sector. For instance, Pradhan Mantri Matsya Smapada Yojana (PMMSY) aims to upkeep the aquaculture industry and augment production; it also includes an export approach to help double farmers' income. This kind of initiatives provide support and flexibility to manufacturers in the aquafeed industry and provide them the opportunity to further expand globally. Aquaculture is the largest market for astaxanthin, wherein the growth of aquafeed is expected to directly result in the growth of the astaxanthin market.

Challenges: Risks associated with adulteration and clean label requirements

The concern about adulteration in astaxanthin has become a major challenge for the astaxanthin market. Adulterated astaxanthin is extremely dangerous for animals, humans, and the environment. Unlike plants, animals cannot independently synthesize astaxanthin and depend on food for its intake. Not adding proper nutrients to the feed and food products can prove fatal to animals and humans, respectively. The rate of adulteration of astaxanthin, specifically in North America, is increasing. Synthetic astaxanthin sold in the US is made from petrochemicals or genetically mutated yeast, and it is dangerous for human consumption.

Additionally, natural astaxanthin might be very challenging to grow as it is labor-intensive and has a rather expensive process of production from microalgae. Astaxanthin is a high-valued product whose demand is increasing significantly in the region. Due to this, adulterated products are being sold in the market to gain profits. Thus, adulteration poses a significant challenge to the growth of the market. Clean-label requirements are essential in food-grade products, and as astaxanthin is used in combination with other ingredients, it cannot get the clean label, which acts as a setback to its growth in the food and supplements market.

Key features of Astaxanthin Market

  • Antioxidant properties: Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that has been shown to have a range of health benefits.
  • Versatile applications: Astaxanthin has a wide range of applications, including as a dietary supplement, a cosmetic ingredient, and as a feed additive for aquaculture.

  • Market growth: The astaxanthin market is expected to grow in the coming years due to increased demand for natural and functional ingredients in the food, beverage, and dietary supplement industries.
  • Growing demand: The demand for astaxanthin is growing as consumers become more aware of the health benefits associated with this natural compound.

Astaxanthin Market Segmentation

The delevopment in retail industry is driving the astaxanthin market.

The retail food industry witnessed significant growth among consumers over the past few years globally. The growth in the Asian market is attributed to foreign direct investment, domestic conglomerates, and government investments. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the Indian retail industry is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. This market was valued at USD 672 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 1,200 billion in 2021. The relationships between the retail, food processing, and logistics sectors have witnessed significant growth, facilitating the easy availability of a wide range of products to rural towns.

The development of retail channels in the form of supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores, has encouraged the growth of the astaxanthin market globally. These large food chains are the major outlets for functional food products, which are generally rich in astaxanthin due to the increase in on-the-go consumption. With this, supermarkets are also able to capture their share in the astaxanthin market. This trend is projected to drive the market demand for astaxanthin over the next few years.

Chemically synthesized astaxanthin dominated the market, accounting for a share of 44.0% in 2020

Astaxanthin synthesized chemically as hydroxyl-astaxanthin from petrochemicals. Various strategies are used for synthetic production. However, the oldest and most widely used is the Wittig reaction of two C15-phosphonium salts with a C10-dialdehyde. Synthetic astaxanthin contains the 3S,3S, 3R,3S, and 3R,3R isomers. It is not esterified, while natural astaxanthin mostly occurs in esterified form or a complex with proteins or lipids. Astaxanthin produced by chemical synthesis is the most economical but is not considered fit for human consumption as it liberates toxic greenhouse gases and harmful byproducts, despite the high demand for synthetic astaxanthin for aquaculture and animal consumption.

The fermentation segment, by method of production, is projected to witness a significant CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period.

The production of astaxanthin on an industrial scale through Phaffia rhodozyma/Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous (yeast) using the microbial fermentation process is one of the important methods to produce astaxanthin, after microalgae cultivation. A major advantage of this organism is its quick growth and high cell density, which makes the production process fast and economical. Natural astaxanthin produced from the yeast, Phaffia rhodozyma is widely used in the aquaculture of fish and shellfish.

Astaxanthin produced through the fermentation of yeast can be produced efficiently using low-cost raw materials from industrial and agricultural origins, such as sugarcane juice and diluted urea. The use of inexpensive raw materials reduces the cost of production. These raw materials are adopted to get maximum astaxanthin productivity from an industrial perspective.
