Chitosan is marketed under various grades, such as industrial, pharmaceutical, and food depending upon the purity of the product. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used as diluents for tablets, a binder in wet granulations, dis-integrant, drug carrier, and absorption enhancer. In addition, chitosan and its derivatives can easily penetrate the plasmatic membrane of microorganisms and kill bacteria, fungi, and other parasites. Hence, is used for treating infections in orthopedic, neurological, gynecological, and cardiovascular surgical procedures.
North America is expected to emerge as one of the major markets for chitosan during the forecasted period, registering a CAGR of 19.2% in terms of volume, between 2020 to 2027. The region has experienced a growing demand for chitosan products owing to increasing biobased industries. Manufacturers are heavily investing in R&D activities to develop the pure grade of chitosan. However, high production cost owing to the irregular supply of the raw material is anticipated to hamper market growth over the forecast period.
The market is highly fragmented in nature owing to the presence of a large number of small-scale players, especially in countries including Japan, China, Thailand, and South Korea. These countries have favorable government regulations to promote growth of their fishery industry.
