Market Definition
Sodium Alginate is the naturally occurring polysaccharide derivative of alginic acid and gum mainly extracted from the cell walls of brown algae, with chelating activity. It is used as a stabilizer for ice cream, yogurt, cream, and cheese. It is a thickener and emulsifier for salad, pudding, jam, tomato juice, and canned products.
Global Sodium Alginate Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Expansion of food and beverage industry
Significant growth in the food and beverage industry around the world is one of the key factors driving the market's positive outlook. Due to its high thickening, gelling, and film-forming properties, alginate is widely used as a natural additive in producing various convenience and ready-to-eat (RTE) food products.

COVID-19 Impact on Sodium Alginate Market
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly impacted global industrial production due to documented lockdowns in key economies. This has had a negative impact on the production, manufacturing, and transportation of various items all over the world. In contrast, the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries are unaffected. Global demand for food, beverages, and pharmaceuticals has increased since January 2020, increasing overall output. As lockdowns have prevented eateries and restaurants from serving on their premises, the demand for packaged food and processed foods has increased. Furthermore, the demand for medicines has increased in recent years due to preventive measures taken by end users to stay fit and boost the immune system. As a result, the demand for alginate products has increased. North America and Europe have significant markets for packaged, bakery, processed, and frozen food. Furthermore, coronavirus outbreaks have been observed in the majority of economies, including the United States, Italy, Spain, France, the United Kingdom, and others. As a result, the operations of food joints and restaurants are restricted, slowing the demand for alginates. Due to trade restrictions in international markets, logistic operations across the major geographies have been temporarily suspended, hampering the supply channel. On the other extreme, the manufacturing industry is getting back on track, with enterprises resuming operations, which is likely to support product demand.
Expected Impact of Economic Slowdown on the Pricing and Availability of Products
