Gelatin - A Global Market Review

Gelatin - A Global Market Review

The world gelatin industry is attempting to shake off the stigma associated with BSE, which hitherto have squeezed manufacturer profit margins, crippled business climates, and resulted in temporary tightness for bovine sources, and high raw material prices. The gelatin industry, over the years, has borne the brunt of negative publicity over the safety of this animal-derived ingredient, and the resulting tightened regulations, and legislative riders governing the use of gelatin in supplements. Supported by new research findings, manufacturers are fast promoting gelatin as safe for human consumption, and are making concerted efforts to dissipate the misconception that gelatin is a potential carrier of BSE.

These and other market data and trends are presented in "Gelatin: A Global Market Review" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
