Global Chitosan Market Generated ~$1.8 Billion Revenue in 2020, APAC Region was the Largest Contributor Says P&S Intelligence

NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Chitosan market generated revenue of ~$1.8 Billion in 2020 and is predicted to witness significant growth during 2021–2030, the soaring adoption of chitosan in various industries such as food and beverages, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, bioplastics, and fisheries, and increasing research and development (R&D) activities being carried out in chitosan are the major growth drivers of the global chitosan market. Furthermore, the mushrooming requirement for chitosan in wastewater treatment applications and surging demand for bioactive materials are also fueling the growth of the market.

The governments of many countries have imposed strict lockdowns for mitigating the spread of the COVID-19 disease. This caused the closing down of many industries, except the healthcare industry, which experienced sharp growth across the world. Moreover, many researchers identified chitosan as a potential agent for COVID-19 drug delivery devices during the pandemic, because of chitosan's flexible joining ability with other molecules. Due to these reasons, it can be said that the COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the progress of the chitosan market.

The chitosan market is divided into prawn, shrimp, lobster, and crab, depending on source. Out of these, the shrimp category dominated the market, both in terms of revenue and volume, between 2015 and 2020. Furthermore, the category is predicted to hold the largest share in the market during the forecast period. This is credited to the ability of shrimps to produce high-yield and high-quality chitosan and the burgeoning demand for shrimp chitosan.

Based on application, the chitosan market is categorized into medical, water treatment, food and beverages, and agriculture. Amongst these, the water treatment category dominated the market in 2020, because of the coagulating characteristics of chitosan, which assist in removing metal and non-metal ions from water.
