Increasing demand for astaxanthin is being driven by its expanded usage across multiple industries including aquaculture, animal feed, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, as well as food and beverage, among others. It is applied extensively as a food ingredient in prawns and fish like salmon, trout, and ornamental fish to provide pigmentation and commercial value.
Other advantages for aquatic animals include an increase in stress tolerance, performance, immune-related gene expressions, reproductive potential, survival improvement, and disease resistance. Major companies are concentrating on new product launches and co-operative agreements to catch up with the growing demand in aquaculture.
The growing awareness regarding nutrition for a healthy life and the growing demand for dietary supplements due to the high cost of hospitalization are expected to fuel the demand for nutraceuticals & natural antioxidants. The market players are largely expanding their production capacities to match the rising demand for nutraceutical products
There has been rising notice of rising customer demand for natural and organic ingredients in food, soft drinks and skincare products. Microalgae-derived Astaxanthin having an antioxidant characteristic puts the growing align with demand trend. This shifting sentiment is highly significant for markets including dietary supplements and cosmetics where synthetic chemicals are substituted by astaxanthin presented as safer and ecologically friendly products.
Here, firms are riding the wave of branding themselves as manufacturers of natural, organic and Non-GMO ingredients through exercising and expanding transparency and clean labelling. As the understanding has grown regarding the harmful effects caused by artificial additives and preservatives, there has been a paradigm shift towards the use of natural antioxidants for astaxanthin which is to boost its sale globally. It is expected that this will widen, especially with the rise in the number of individuals turning to a vegan lifestyle and moving away from the utilization of artificial wellness products.
For instance, the growing consumer preference for natural and plant-based ingredients has significantly boosted the demand for natural astaxanthin across various industries. Astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant primarily sourced from microalgae like Haematococcus pluvialis, is gaining prominence due to its health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. This trend is particularly evident in the nutraceutical sector, where natural astaxanthin is favored over synthetic alternatives. Moreover, the cosmetics industry is increasingly incorporating natural astaxanthin into skincare products, capitalizing on its ability to protect the skin from environmental damage and improve skin elasticity. Advancements in production technologies, such as eco-friendly microalgae cultivation methods, have further enhanced the appeal of natural astaxanthin by ensuring sustainable and high-quality production.
Compared to natural astaxanthin, synthetic alternatives are frequently less expensive to produce and may have a competitive price advantage. This may be a problem for the market for natural astaxanthin, especially in niches where pricing is a factor.
The natural astaxanthin industry faces significant challenges due to competition from synthetic alternatives. Synthetic astaxanthin is widely utilized in aquaculture, particularly in shrimp farming, to enhance feed efficiency, growth performance, pigmentation, and overall product quality. Studies have demonstrated that synthetic variants can outperform natural ones in promoting shrimp growth and pigmentation, making them a cost-effective choice for aquaculture operations. Moreover, synthetic astaxanthin offers advantages such as high purity, batch consistency, and cost-effectiveness, which are appealing to manufacturers aiming to meet large-scale production demands. These attributes position synthetic astaxanthin as a key driver for market expansion, potentially limiting the growth prospects of natural astaxanthin in certain applications. Additionally, the production of synthetic astaxanthin is less complex and more scalable compared to natural extraction methods, which involve intricate cultivation and extraction processes from microalgae. This scalability and lower production complexity contribute to the competitive pricing of synthetic astaxanthin, further challenging the market share of natural astaxanthin. Synthetic astaxanthin, which is primarily derived from petrochemical sources, is widely used in aquaculture due to its cost-effectiveness and ease of mass production.
For instance, in the salmon farming industry, synthetic astaxanthin accounts for more than 95% of the pigment used to enhance the pink coloration of farmed fish. While natural astaxanthin, extracted mainly from microalgae like Haematococcus pluvialis, is preferred in the nutraceutical and cosmetics sectors for its superior antioxidant properties, it is considerably more expensive to produce. This price disparity makes it difficult for natural astaxanthin to compete in large-scale commercial applications, especially in markets driven by cost-efficiency rather than product differentiation. As a result, many manufacturers and end-users continue to favor synthetic options, restraining the broader adoption and market expansion of natural astaxanthin.
