Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is considered a primary structural component of tissues like ligaments. It serves as a fibrous protein that provides strength, support, and elasticity to skin, bones, tendons, blood vessels, cartilage, and ligaments. It’s primarily made of amino acids like serine, proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline, and it forms a triple helix as a result, giving it remarkable rigidity and tensile strength. The body naturally makes collagen, which progressively decreases over the years and leads to joint flexibility, wrinkles, and other common signs of aging.

The collagen industry encompasses the production and distribution of collagen and its derivatives, such as gelatin and hydrolyzed collagen. These products are primarily sourced from animal by-products, including bovine, porcine, and marine origins. Collagen and its derivatives have a wide range of applications in various sectors, including nutraceuticals, personal care and cosmetics, food and beverages, and healthcare. The industry's growth can be attributed to an increasing consumer focus on health and wellness benefits, particularly regarding skin, joint health, and overall vitality. Additionally, advancements in extraction and processing technology have further supported this growth.
