Global Omega-3 Product Market Report 2017: Increased Demand for Infant Formula Products in Developing Regions - Research and Markets


The "Global Omega-3 Product Market - Segmented by Type, Application, and Geography (2017 - 2022)" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The global Omega-3 product market is being dominantly driven by the strong demand of infant formula products, in developing regions, such as China. The Omega-3 demand is growing at a faster rate in infant food fortification, as it provides the essential DHA for infant brain development. In addition, the global dietary supplement market is growing at a quick pace, which has further increased the demand of Omega-3 supplements.

However, the major restraint for the market is the depleting fish population, the primary source of Omega-3. The other marine sources of Omega-3 are - krill oil, algae oil, other than fish. Algae sourced Omega-3 is the fastest growing segment, due to various factors. Omega-3 obtained from algae are considered as more bioavailable and sustainable for production, which are key considerations in the present scenario, where overfishing is a major problem. Another benefit associated with algae Omega-3 is that, it is suitable for the vegetarian label.



Moreover, the product quality of algae Omega-3 is superior as compared to fish oil, because it is free from any toxic pollutants, in addition to high purity in terms of form of fatty acid, and off sensory properties. Another major restraining factor for the market growth is the high cost of product, due to higher downstream processing cost. However, with passage of time and due to technological advancements, its price is forecasted to reduce, which can make the product highly competitive.
