Tannin is a polyphenolic compound found in various plants that can bind to and precipitate proteins. It is valued for its astringent properties and is used in diverse applications including leather tanning, wine and tea clarification, and as a natural preservative in foods and beverages. Tannins serve multiple functions across different industries.
The main types of tannins includes hydrolysable, non-hydrolysable, and phlorotannins. Hydrolysable tannins can be broken down into simpler molecules such as gallic acid and ellagic acid through hydrolysis. Tannins come from plant-based, animal-based, and synthetic sources and are utilized in various applications such as leather tanning, wine production, wood adhesives, and anti-corrosive primers.

The tannin market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.61 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%.The anticipated growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the rising demand for eco-friendly and sustainable products, greater awareness of the health benefits of tannins, increased investments in research and development, a growing need for natural dyes, and a higher demand for tannin-based chelating agents. Key trends expected during this period include technological advancements, the growth of organic cosmetics, the use of tannins in traditional medicine, the adoption of eco-friendly packaging, and the development of personalized nutrition solutions.
The growing demand from the leather industry is anticipated to drive the expansion of the tannin market in the future. The leather industry involves processing animal hides and skins into leather and producing various leather goods, such as clothing, footwear, and accessories. This demand is influenced by evolving fashion trends, the growth of the automotive sector, increased interest in premium home furnishings, and advances in sustainable leather production methods. Tannin plays a crucial role in the leather industry as a primary ingredient in the tanning process. It helps transform raw animal hides into durable, flexible leather by binding with the proteins in the hides to prevent decay and enhance the material's strength and quality. For example, in July 2024, the CBI Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a Netherlands-based governmental organization, reported that the value of leather accessory imports into Europe rose to €2.97 billion ($3.24 billion) in 2022, up from €2.74 billion ($2.99 billion) in 2021, indicating increased demand. Thus, the growing demand from the leather industry is fueling the expansion of the tannin market.
Leading companies in the tannin market are concentrating on developing innovative products, including sustainable tan leather that is both environmentally friendly and safe for consumers. Sustainable tan leather is produced using eco-friendly and ethically responsible methods, particularly in the tanning process. For instance, in August 2023, Bentley Motors Limited, a UK-based luxury car and SUV manufacturer, introduced Olive Tan Leather as part of its sustainability efforts. This tanning agent, derived from the organic by-products of olive oil pressing, comes from wastewater collected during the olive pressing process. It is free of harmful metals, minerals, and aldehydes, and uses less water compared to traditional tanning methods.
In July 2024, Tannin Corporation, a US-based manufacturer of leather products, acquired Whittemore-Wright Company Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to broaden Tannin Corporation's product range and market presence by integrating the capabilities and customer base of Whittemore-Wright Company Inc., a US-based company specializing in tanning oils for leather.
