Global Alginate Oligosaccharide (AOS) Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Alginate Oligosaccharide (AOS) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 838 million in 2025 to US$ 1623 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.0% from 2026 to 2032.
Alginate Oligosaccharide (AOS) is a low-molecular-weight carbohydrate derived from the controlled depolymerization of alginate extracted from brown seaweed, known for its bioactive properties such as immunomodulation, antioxidant activity, and plant growth stimulation. In 2025, the average global price of alginate oligosaccharide is approximately US$95 per kilogram, with global sales volume reaching around 8,900 tons and production volume estimated at about 9,600 tons. The industry typically maintains a gross margin of 48%–65%, supported by enzymatic or controlled chemical production processes, functional differentiation by degree of polymerization, and expanding demand across food, agriculture, and biomedical applications. The value chain includes upstream seaweed raw materials and enzymes; midstream producers focus on alginate extraction, depolymerization, purification, and quality control; downstream customers primarily include nutraceutical manufacturers, agricultural input suppliers, pharmaceutical developers, cosmetic brands, and research institutions.
The alginate oligosaccharide (AOS) market has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by several key trends. Here are some of the notable trends in the AOS market:Growing demand in the food and beverage industry: Alginate oligosaccharide has various applications in the food and beverage industry, including as a stabilizer, thickening agent, and emulsifier. It is used in products such as dairy, bakery, and confectionery items. The increasing demand for natural and clean label ingredients in the food and beverage sector is driving the growth of the AOS market.
