According to European Algae Biomass Association, by 2050, the world will need to produce 70% more food to feed a population of 10 billion people. These foods will need to meet a high nutritional standard while reducing their impact on the environment. The companies Unilever Food Solutions and Algenuity recognize the key role that diverse, plant-based proteins like microalgae will play in transitioning toward this new food system. Chlorella Vulgaris, a widely recognized (micro)algae, is a nutrient-rich, plant-based source of protein and fiber with a low environmental footprint. Chlorella possesses several additional beneficial nutrients, including antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. It has been consumed globally for many years, yet its high chlorophyll content, which gives plants their green color and a bitter taste and smell, has proven a barrier to its inclusion in mainstream diets. These factors may drive the algae protein market.
The availability of a wide range of protein substitutes may impede the use of algae proteins in food products. While algae are emerging as a popular source of nutrients and proteins and are being added to fortified food products, the presence of different protein-based food products is a key challenge. Additionally, meat remains a crucial part of the diet for many people, despite the ongoing shift toward plant-based protein and vegan food alternatives. For instance, according to a survey published in Food Research International involving 4322 respondents across 5 EU countries, 40% of those respondents remained inclined towards animal-based foods with relatively low interest in switching to plant alternatives.
Spirulina provides a rich green color to smoothies and protein shakes. This algae is great for heart health as it helps lower cholesterol while having anti-inflammatory effects. Due to its high vitamin content, spirulina is extensively commercialized for sports nutrition products. Spirulina is a high-protein source of plant-based foods, containing approximately 50% to 70% protein by dry weight. Spirulina's low nucleic acid content, high vitamin and mineral content, and easy digestibility of the cell wall relative to other microbes have attracted a variety of food and feed manufacturers. Animal feed also contains high amounts of spirulina, making it a strong and soaring market in the coming future.
Consumption of algae protein in liquid form offers many benefits, such as easy absorption of a wide range of vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids, and essential nutrients. Multiple foods and beverage companies are adding algae to introduce unique nutritional offerings. For instance, in February 2022, Ful launched Ful Soda, a healthy drink that uses spirulina to provide a nutritional boost. Furthermore, developments in plant-based dairy will offer lucrative scope for the use of algae. The Singapore-based food tech company, on 4 May 2021, Sophie's Bionutrients introduced the world's first-ever algae milk, eliminating the concerns associated with lactose intolerance and other allergies. The milk replacement is made with Sophie's Bionutrients signature micro-algae protein flour with the same essential amino acids as micro-algae. The flour is then homogenized with water to create a dairy-free alternative.
Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period due to rising exports and domestic demand for plant-based ingredients are driving the growth of the global algae protein market. Changing dietary patterns has encouraged manufacturers to utilize algae proteins in bakery & confectionery, protein drinks, breakfast cereals, snacks, and many other products. Growing consumer inclination towards protein-based diets and the inclusion of plant-based or natural ingredients into daily diets have boosted the adoption of algae protein in Asia.
China is one of the region's largest manufacturers of plant-based ingredients due to the easy obtainability of raw materials in the country. According to Food and Agriculture Organization, global cultivation of algae, dominated by marine macroalgae known as seaweeds, grew by half a million tonnes in 2020, up by 1.4 percent from 34.6 million tonnes in 2019. Some major producing countries, including China and Japan, experienced growth in 2020. In addition to the 178 million tonnes of aquatic animals, algae produced 36 million tonnes (wet weight) in 2020, of which 97 percent originated from aquaculture. Algae production has experienced impressive growth in the past few decades, at 12 million tonnes in 2000 and 21 million tonnes in 2010. However, it increased by only 2 percent in 2020 compared with 2019. Asian countries confirmed their role as major producers, with a share of 97 percent of the total production of algae. 5 The remaining 6 percent of finfish comprised diadromous species. As the leading producer, China alone accounted for 58 percent of the overall total in 2020, followed by Indonesia (27 percent) and the Republic of Korea (5 percent).
The global algae protein market is competitive in nature, with many domestic and multinational players competing for market share. Emphasis is given to the merger, expansion, acquisition, and partnership of the companies, along with new product development, as strategic approaches adopted by the leading companies to boost their brand presence among consumers.
