Global Medicinal Gelatin Market Size, Share, and Trends Analysis Report, By Type (Bone Medical Gelatin, and Leather Medical Gelatin), By Application (Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoporosis, Weight Loss, Surgery, and Other), and By End-user (Hospitals, Speciality Clinics, and Others), Forecast (2022-2028)

The global medicinal gelatin market is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period (2022-2028). Medicinal gelatin is a protein obtained from animal collagen sources, including cows or pigs. Medicinal gelatin is used in medicines for its wide variety of applications in several diseases and procedures, including osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, surgeries, and others. The major factor attributing to the growth of the global medicinal gelatin market includes the increasing number of patients with osteoarthritis and osteoporosis around the globe. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 32.5 million adults are affected by osteoarthritis in the US alone in 2021. Osteoarthritis is caused due to the damage or breakdown of joint cartilage between the bones showing several symptoms, including pain, stiffness, swelling, and decreased flexibility. Furthermore, according to the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF), around 8.9 million people are affected by fractures due to osteoporosis every year. Thus, increasing the demand for medicinal gelatin.

In addition, the application of medicinal gelatin in weight loss supplements due to the increasing number of obese patients is also contributing to the growth of the global medicinal gelatin market. According to an article published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in June 2021, around 2.8 million mortalities occur due to obesity every year. This increasing rate of mortality due to overweight is raising awareness for weight loss among people resulting in the increasing demand for weight loss supplements containing medicinal gelatin. Furthermore, medicinal gelating is used as the hemostatic agent by surgeons for blood loss control during surgery. According to the report published by the National Library of Medicine (NIH) in September 2020, around 310 million major surgeries are performed globally every year.

The market players are also contributing significantly to the growth of the market by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, partnerships, collaborations, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in March 2022, Hempu Time launched its CBD liquid gel capsules in Malaysia. CBD liquid gel capsules are made of medium-chain triglyceride oil, hemp seed oil, CBD, and medicinal gelatin, designed to dissolve in the mouth for their beneficial effect on oral health.
