Based on form, the fish protein hydrolysate market for animal feed and pet food application from the FPH powder segment is expected to reach USD 340 million by 2032, due to rising demand for ingredients for animal feed used in aquaculture, poultry, and piglets. With the utilization of fish protein hydrolysate in powder form, animals can have greater access to amino acids. Apart from this benefit, the absence of moisture lowers total weight, shipping costs, and the possibility of bacterial deterioration of fish protein hydrolysate.
In terms of technology, the fish protein hydrolysate market share for animal feed and pet food application from enzymatic hydrolysis technology segment is anticipated to cross USD 310 million by 2032. The technology can help produce FPHs that have wide applications in a broad range of industries, such as peptones, pet food, and animal feed product manufacture. It utilizes proteolytic enzymes, which increase the controllability of the hydrolysis process. Moreover, the ability of this technology to improve the product’s functional properties should further augment the market size.
The tuna source segment will record more than 5% CAGR through 2032. Many minerals, including magnesium, protein, niacin, iron, potassium, and omega-3 fatty acids, are present in tuna protein hydrolysate. As a result, tuna use in pet food and animal feed has increased in recent years. Improved growth performance and feed intake in carnivorous fish are two benefits of tuna protein hydrolysate that should boost its demand in the animal feed sector.
Europe fish protein hydrolysate market for animal feed and pet food application is estimated to observe more than 5% CAGR during 2023 to 2032. FPH when used in animal feed can enhances the metabolism and health of livestock. As a result, it is more widely used in animal feed and pet food products in Europe. The trend of pet humanization is growing, which has increased the demand for premium pet food. According to Euromonitor International’s Voice of the Consumer: Lifestyles Survey, 71% of pet owners globally consider pets as members of the family. The survey also showed that nearly 30% of pet owners have started buying sustainably produced items.
