Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body. It is considered a primary structural component of tissues such as 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 mainly come from animal by-products, such as bovine, porcine, and marine sources. The nutraceuticals, personal care and cosmetics, food and beverages, and healthcare industries use collagen and its derivatives. Collagen demand is driven by rising consumer interest in health and wellness benefits, particularly for skin, joint health, and overall vitality. Furthermore, improvements in extraction and processing technology have helped this growth.
