Summary

Gelatin is a protein obtained from collagen, a substance found in the connective tissues of animals such as pigs and cows. Its history can be traced back to ancient civilizations such as the Egyptians, who used it to make glue, and the Chinese, who used it in medicine. However, it was not until the 19th century that gelatin became a popular ingredient in food and confectionery. In Italy, gelatin is known as "gelatina" and has been used in traditional desserts such as panna cotta and zabaglione for centuries. However, it was only in the early 20th century that gelatin began to be produced commercially in Italy. The production of gelatin in Italy is concentrated in the regions of Lombardy, Piedmont, and Emilia-Romagna, where the main producers are located. Today, gelatin is used in a variety of food and beverage products, including candies, desserts, and dairy products. In addition, it is used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and photographic film. Despite its widespread use, gelatin has also been the subject of controversy due to concerns over its animal origins and the ethical implications of its production. As a result, alternative sources of gelatin, such as plant-based and microbial sources, are being developed and explored.

According to the research report "Italy gelatin Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the Italy gelatin market is expected to add 98.72 million USD by 2028. As the industrial use of gelatin continue to increase in the Italy, Gelatin consumption will rise as well, and it varies by industry. Gelatin is used as a thickening ingredient, gelling agent, stabilizing agent, and other things in a variety of industries, including pharmaceutical, FMCG, beverages, and cosmetics (adhesion, texturizer, emulsifying agent). Increase in pharmaceutical, Nutraceuticals & FMCG production will increase usage thickening ingredient, gelling agent, stabilizing agent. Italy is importer of cosmetics products & import substitution will increase consumption of gelatin. during pandemic & post pandemic Pharmaceutical, Nutraceuticals, & FMCG consumption is at peak one of major use of gelatin in Italy is cosmetic, & Italy plans to substitute pharmaceuticals imports & import substitute to cosmetics also. Moreover Italian consumers favor high-quality goods in the cosmetics and toiletry sector.

In Italy, gelatin is primarily sourced from pig and cow hides, bones, and cartilage. These raw materials are cleaned, processed, and treated with acid to extract the collagen, which is then further processed to obtain gelatin. Gelatin has a wide range of applications in Italy, particularly in the food industry. It is used as a gelling agent, stabilizer, and emulsifier in a variety of food products, including confectionery, desserts, yogurt, and meat products. For example, gelatin is a key ingredient in the popular Italian dessert, panna cotta, which is made from cream, sugar, and gelatin. Gelatin is also used in the production of traditional Italian candies such as "gummi" and "jellies," as well as in the preparation of gelato, a type of Italian ice cream. Beyond the food industry, gelatin has also found applications in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and photography. In the pharmaceutical industry, gelatin is used as a coating for capsules and tablets, as well as in drug delivery systems. In cosmetics, it is used in hair and skin care products to improve texture and appearance. In photography, gelatin is used in the production of photographic film. As concerns over the use of animal-derived gelatin have grown, alternative sources of gelatin are being developed and explored in Italy. For example, plant-based and microbial sources of gelatin are being researched as potential alternatives to animal-derived gelatin. These alternative sources may offer a more sustainable and ethical option for gelatin production in the future.

In Italy, gelatin production and use are subject to government regulations and guidelines. The Italian Ministry of Health sets guidelines for the use of gelatin in food and pharmaceuticals, and ensures that gelatin used in these products meets safety and quality standards. The Ministry also regulates the labeling of gelatin-containing products, requiring manufacturers to list gelatin as an ingredient. In recent years, there have been developments in gelatin production and use in Italy. As mentioned earlier, there is a growing interest in alternative sources of gelatin, particularly plant-based and microbial sources. Italian companies are investing in research and development to create innovative, sustainable, and ethical alternatives to animal-derived gelatin. For example, some Italian companies are exploring the use of algae, seaweed, and fungi as potential sources of gelatin.

In addition, there is a trend towards greater transparency and traceability in gelatin production in Italy. Consumers are increasingly interested in knowing where their food comes from and how it is produced. As a result, some Italian gelatin producers are adopting measures to ensure the traceability and quality of their products. For example, some companies are implementing blockchain technology to track the origin and processing of their gelatin, providing consumers with greater transparency and assurance about the product's quality and sustainability. Overall, the gelatin industry in Italy continues to evolve, driven by consumer demand for sustainable and ethical products, as well as advances in technology and research. As gelatin continues to play a crucial role in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, it is likely that the development of alternative sources and increased transparency in production will continue to be major trends in the Italian gelatin market.

The approach of the report:
This report consists of a combined approach of primary and secondary research. Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and list out the companies that are present in it. The secondary research consists of third-party sources such as press releases, annual reports of companies, government-generated reports, and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources, primary research was conducted by making telephone interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducting trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this; we have started doing primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting them in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us, we can start verifying the details obtained from secondary sources.

Intended audience
This report can be useful to industry consultants, manufacturers, suppliers, associations and organizations related to the gelatin, government bodies, and other stakeholders to align their market-centric strategies. In addition to marketing & presentations, it will also increase competitive knowledge about the industry.
