Report overview

Scope note

Segments covered: product, source, application, distribution channel, cultivation method. Regions: Europe.

The growth of this market is mainly driven by the development of innovative chlorella food and beverage products, the inclination towards health and wellness trends and the growing nutraceuticals industry, vegetarianism, and consumers’ inclination towards a protein-rich diet. However, the risk of contamination, high production cost, and complex production of algae products restrain the growth of this market. Moreover, the growing demand for chlorella extracts is expected to create growth opportunities for the players operating in the Europe chlorella market.

Europe's population has become more health conscious and is increasingly adopting nutritional supplements to achieve dietary goals. For instance, according to the Food Supplements Europe survey conducted in 2021 across 14 EU countries, 52% of 13,200 respondents consumed supplements to maintain their overall health. Additionally, the demand for natural and organic products has grown, and so has the demand for plant-based products and functional foods due to the rapidly increasing geriatric population in Europe. According to Eurostat, in 2022, approximately 21.1% of the population in the EU was aged 65 or above. Thus, the growing demand for nutraceuticals is expected to drive the demand for the chlorella market.

Further, chlorella is a scientifically researched algae with many publications from medical institutions, research institutions, and universities. It has also been found to boost the immune system, reduce the intensity of many chronic health problems, and reduce the side effects of medications. Its detoxifying, nourishing, and revitalizing properties enable the body’s natural defenses and repair systems to function more efficiently. Thus, increasing the sales of nutritional supplements and nutraceutical properties of chlorella are compelling the Europe chlorella market.
