Collagen Casings Market Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis, and Forecast 2026 - 2035
The Global Collagen Casings Market was valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% to reach USD 3 billion by 2035.
Collagen casings are edible, protein-rich sausage casings made from bovine or porcine collagen, offering a natural and sustainable alternative to traditional casings derived from animal intestines. They are primarily produced from bovine hides and are widely used in sausage manufacturing because they provide uniformity, convenience, and compatibility with high-speed automated machinery, which significantly boosts operational efficiency for meat processors. The steady rise in global meat consumption is fueling demand for collagen casings, as they provide scalable and cost-effective solutions compared to natural alternatives. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, global meat production reached nearly 364 million metric tons in 2023, with expectations of continuous growth, particularly in emerging markets. Collagen casings are favored because they maintain consistent diameters, withstand production forces, and reduce contamination risks while meeting stringent food safety regulations.
