Spirulina microalgae is set to dominate the pet food sector, accounting for 64% of demand in 2021, driven by its nutritional benefits and rising pet adoption.
According to market survey conducted by FMI, the demand outlook for microalgae in the pet food sector is estimated to remain fairly positive, surpassing a valuation of US$ 22.2 Mn, with a year-on-year growth of 7% in 2021. The overall demand for microalgae is anticipated to surpass a valuation of US$ 35 million by 2031.
Between 2016 and 2020, the microalgae demand grew at CAGR of 4%. With rising adoption of dogs, cats, and other pets as companions for families, inclusion for microalgae in pet food is expected to grow in order to enhance its nutritional value & palatability of pet food. Against this backdrop, FMI sees prospects for the demand to rise at a CAGR of 4.8% over the forecast period 2021 to 2031.
Thanks to the progressively improving animal healthcare industry, the lifespan of pets has increased. With increasing age of pets, diseases such as cancer, arthritis, separation anxiety, and cardiovascular disease have become more common. As microalgae-based pet supplements assist in maintaining health and alleviating age-related pains and aches in elderly pets, the demand for microalgae in the pet food sector is expected to soar.
Spirulina microalgae is anticipated to register the high demand in the pet food sector. Owing to the presence of high micro- and macronutrients such as iron, protein, vitamins, carotenoids, and gamma-linolenic fatty acids, Spirulina microalgae is expected to account for over 64% of the market share in 2021.
“To cater to increasing demand for microalgae in the pet food industry, companies are focusing on developing innovative products such as anti-anxiety pet pill & pet supplement by using microalgae as a key ingredient. Besides this, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval on the use of Spirulina in food and beverage products is likely to fuel the demand for microalgae over the coming years,” says the FMI analyst.
