In April 2022, MiAlgae, a biotech company, announced the launch of the omega-3 product NaturAlgae for aqua feed and pet food.
Food and beverages account for over half of the market share due to the growing demand for functional food and beverages. Similarly, Asia-Pacific dominates the algae products market, capturing the largest market share as the region's growing algae production and development of algae products. In June 2023, WTH Foods announced the expansion of its presence in European and Southeast Asian markets with the launch of microalgae-based vegan seafood products.
Dynamics
Health and Wellness Trend
Algae are rich sources of essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, proteins, and omega-3 fatty acids. Algae-derived compounds such as spirulina, chlorella, and astaxanthin are sought after for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting effects. Consumers are turning to algae supplements and functional foods as a convenient way to support their health and wellness goals.
Algae-based ingredients are increasingly being incorporated into functional foods, beverages, and dietary supplements due to their health-promoting properties. In March 2021, Triton Algae Innovations announced the launch of plant-based algae ingredients and its first retail product - a tuna analog - to show consumers the potential of the underwater crop in alternative proteins. Triton uses a single-celled algae species called Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, which can generate plant proteins.
Expanding Applications in Various Industries
Algae-based ingredients are increasingly being used in the food and beverage industry as functional ingredients, natural colorants, and flavor enhancers. Moreover, algae-derived supplements are gaining popularity among health-conscious consumers seeking natural alternatives to traditional supplements. Algae species like spirulina, chlorella, and astaxanthin are prized for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting properties.
Algae extracts are valued ingredients in the cosmetics and personal care industry for their moisturizing, anti-aging, and skin-nourishing properties. In November 2022, Merck launched 2 new marine cosmetic ingredients such as RonaCare JouvaMer and RonaCare ReviMer. By promoting the synthesis of collagen, RonaCare JouvaMer, an extract from Pelvetia canaliculata brown algae, acts as an anti-aging enhancer and minimizes wrinkles. It also maintains and safeguards the extracellular matrix, resulting in smoother, denser skin.
High Production Costs
Despite advancements in algae cultivation techniques, the production of algae-based products can still be relatively expensive compared to conventional alternatives. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI), an estimated $1,137 is spent on producing one short tonne (st) of algae at the baseline level.
Factors such as infrastructure costs, labor expenses, and energy requirements for cultivation, harvesting, and processing contribute to the overall production costs, making algae products less competitive in price-sensitive markets. Algae cultivation and harvesting also require skilled labor for tasks such as monitoring growth conditions, maintaining equipment, harvesting biomass, and processing algae into final products.
