Glycinates are the conjugate bases of glycine, comprising an alpha-amino acid anion that arises through deprotonation of the carboxy group. They serve as mineral supplements for preventing and treating low magnesium levels in the bloodstream. Due to their superior bioavailability compared to other compounds, glycinates are commonly incorporated into animal feed.
The primary glycinates encompass magnesium glycinate, calcium glycinate, zinc glycinate, iron glycinate, copper glycinate, manganese glycinate, and sodium glycinate. Magnesium glycinate, a compound derived from elemental magnesium and the amino acid glycine, is employed as a dietary supplement to provide a source of magnesium. Various formulations of glycinates, such as fluid, powder, and others, find application in food sources, beverages, nutraceuticals, animal feed, among other uses.
The glycinates market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides glycinates market statistics, including the glycinates industry's global market size, regional shares, competitors with a glycinates market share, detailed glycinates market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the glycinates industry. This glycinates market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The glycinates market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from$1.3 billion in 2024 to $1.38 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in demand in food supplements, nutritional fortification trend, expanding pharmaceutical industry, rise in cosmetics and personal care demand, animal feed applications
The glycinates market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.88 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to continued nutraceutical trends, advancements in cosmetic formulations, expansion of pharmaceutical applications, focus on sustainable ingredients, livestock production growth. Major trends in the forecast period include focus on sustainable and non-allergenic sources, innovation in glycinates for skincare, development of glycinate complexes for agriculture, advancements in production technologies, collaborations for research on glycinate applications.
The anticipated surge in demand for nutritional supplements is projected to drive the expansion of the glycinates market in the future. Nutritional supplements encompass products designed to enhance dietary intake, including vitamins, minerals, herbal remedies, or other ingestible preparations aimed at promoting health. The consumption of supplements aids in ensuring individuals receive essential nutrients in adequate amounts, contributing to the maintenance or improvement of their health. Glycinates serve as supplements that can positively impact health. Notably, in January 2022, VitaFood Insights, a UK-based community-powered knowledge platform for the nutraceutical industry, reported a 3.2% increase in U.S. supplement sales to $60.57 billion in 2022, indicating a growing demand for nutritional supplements and, consequently, propelling the glycinates market's growth.
The escalating consumption of meat is expected to be a driving force behind the glycinates market's growth. Meat consumption involves individuals ingesting and utilizing animal flesh, typically from livestock such as cattle, poultry, pigs, and other mammals, as part of their diet. Glycinates find applications in the meat industry for various purposes, including preservation, flavor enhancement, meat tenderizing, texture improvement, and more. For instance, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), in 2022, despite increased meat prices, the average consumer consumed around 227 pounds of poultry, beef, and pork, slightly up from the 224.9 pounds in 2021. Therefore, the rise in meat consumption contributes to the expansion of the glycinates market.
Major players in the glycinates market are pursuing strategic partnerships to advance amino acid production methods. These collaborations allow companies to leverage each other's strengths and resources for mutual benefit and success. For example, in June 2023, Ajinomoto Co., Inc., a biotechnology company based in Japan, teamed up with Logomix Inc., a genome engineering firm from the U.S., to create a sustainable amino acid production method. This partnership aims to innovate the biocycle of amino acid production and develop environmentally friendly amino acids through sustainable practices that reduce ecological impact.
Prominent companies in the glycinates market are directing their efforts toward pioneering solutions, such as pure magnesium bisglycinate. Pure magnesium bisglycinate is a form of magnesium supplement where each magnesium ion is bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine. In October 2022, Gadot Biochemical Industries, an Israel-based food and nutraceutical ingredients manufacturing company, launched 'Magnesium Bisglycinate,' emphasizing its 100% full reaction, chelation, and non-buffered nature, along with enhanced bioavailability compared to magnesium carbonate and sulfate. This soluble form of magnesium bisglycinate offers exceptional formulation flexibility and is characterized by minimal metallic taste, easily masked by flavors.
In October 2022, BASF, a Germany-based chemicals company involved in glycinates manufacturing, collaborated with Hannong Chemicals, a South Korea-based chemicals company, forming a joint venture. Under this partnership, BASF would hold a 51% stake, and Hannong Chemicals would hold a 49% stake in the newly established entity, BASF Hannong Chemicals Solutions Ltd. The joint venture aimed to position the new company in the non-ionic surfactants market and cater to customers in Asia.
