The bovine hydrolyzed collagen segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2022, and the marine hydrolyzed collagen segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Hydrolyzed marine collagen is mainly obtained from different fish varieties, jellyfish, and sponges. It helps improve cartilage and skin health. In cell culture, marine collagen enhances collagen quality. When given to animals as a dietary supplement, it helps develop bone mineral density and toughness.

Thus, the demand for marine-sourced hydrolyzed collagen is increasing as a substitute for bovine and porcine. Hence, driving the hydrolyzed collagen market growth.
