Chitosan Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Grade (Food Grade, Industrial Grade, Medical Grade), By Application (Cosmetics, Food and Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Agrochemicals, Water Treatment, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Description

The Chitosan Market is projected to expand from USD 2.015 billion in 2025 to USD 4.065 billion in 2030, driven by a 15.07% compound annual growth rate (CAGR).

Rising application of chitosan in cosmetics, water treatment, and medical industries is boosting the growth of chitosan market. Rising demand for water and wastewater treatment due to growing global population and increasing urbanization is also spurring the demand for chitosan in this sector. High availability of raw material is also supporting the growth of chitosan market globally. Rising production of chitosan from non-aquatic sources will further continue to propel the growth of chitosan market during the forecast period. However, strict regulatory compliance related to shrimp farming is hindering the growth of chitosan market. Geographically, chitosan market is segmented as North America, South America, Europe, Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific. APAC holds a significant market share owing to the high usage of chitosan in Korea and Japan as a food additive and for water treatment application. Moreover, high production of shrimp in countries such as China and Thailand is a key factor to drive the regional market growth in terms of raw material supply.
