DALLAS, July 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

ReportsnReports.com adds Global Chitosan Market 2015-2019 research report that emphasizes emerging use of chitosan as an alternative in food packaging as a major factor triggering growth across the globe for this industry.

Complete report on chitosan market spread across 65 pages, analyzing 5 major companies and supported with 25 data exhibits is now available at http://www.reportsnreports.com/reports/404544-global-chitosan-market-2015-2019.html .

The chitosan market is expected to grow rapidly during the forecast period because of increasing consumption of chitosan in water treatment and the cosmetics industry. Chitosan is used as a flocculating and chelating agent for removing various traces of metals from industrial wastewater. Chitosan is used as a substitute to petroleum by-products such as plastics used in food packing, which are not recyclable. It is increasingly preferred for food packaging as it is produced from the shells of prawns and different scavengers, and is biodegradable, and also possesses antimicrobial properties.

Commenting on the report, an analyst said: "Demand from APAC is expected to be higher than other regions because of strong growth of various industries such as cosmetics, food and beverage, healthcare and medical, agrochemicals, biomedicine, and pulp and paper. Also, India and China are likely to post high GDP growth rates; as a result, the demand from various industries such as wastewater treatment is expected to increase substantially during the forecast period. In addition, many vendors are expected to set up production facilities in this region to cater to the growing demand."

Biothera, FMC Health & Nutrition, Golden-Shell Pharmaceutical, GTC Bio and KitoZyme are the major companies discussed in this chitosan market research. Other prominent vendors simply mentioned in the report include Advanced Biopolymers, Dalian Xindie Chitin, Kunpoong Bio, Meron Biopolymers, Navamedic and Primex.

According to this chitosan market report, in cosmetics, it is used as a moisturizing agent, emollient, and film former. The consumption of chitosan accounted for 41% in the cosmetics industry mainly for skin care products, and 8% in the pharmaceutical industry. Organic acids are generally used as a solvent for cosmetic applications. Polyanionic chitosan is the only natural cationic gum, which turns viscous when neutralized with an acid. Chitosan also helps in hair softening and smoothening. Further, the report states that it is difficult for small-scale water utilities to afford enough water treatment products because of the high prices of these products, thereby hindering market growth.

The report, Global Chitosan Market 2015-2019, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from various industry experts. The report includes a comprehensive discussion on the market, an extensive coverage on various types of production techniques, applications and demand-supply dynamics in various geographies.

The report further includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
