The Market Reports

Synopsis
The global market for Poly-gamma-glutamic Acid was estimated to be worth US$ 469 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 772 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
This report provides a comprehensive assessment of recent tariff adjustments and international strategic countermeasures on Poly-gamma-glutamic Acid cross-border industrial footprints, capital allocation patterns, regional economic interdependencies, and supply chain reconfigurations.
Poly-gamma-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a naturally occurring, biodegradable, and water-soluble biopolymer composed of glutamic acid monomers linked through γ-amide bonds. Unlike typical proteins that are linked via α-peptide bonds, γ-PGA features γ-linkages between the amino group of one glutamic acid and the carboxyl group on the side chain of another. It is primarily produced through microbial fermentation, especially by Bacillus subtilis and related strains.
Global key players of Poly-Gamma-Glutamic Acid include Nanjing Shineking Biotech, Vedan Biotechnology, Shandong Changrui, Bloomage Biotech, Shandong Freda, etc. The top five players hold a share about 40%. In terms of product type, 700,000 Molecular Weight is the largest segment, occupied for a share of about 44%, and in terms of application, Fertilizer has a share about 33 percent.
As a bio-based material, the application prospect of polyglutamic acid is promising. Attracted by the good market prospect, the number of companies deploying this market continues to increase. As far as the Chinese market is concerned, there are more than 20 polyglutamic acid production enterprises with relatively large production capacity, but due to the limitation of the production process, the actual output of polyglutamic acid is relatively low. As a biodegradable green polymer material, polyglutamic acid has attracted more and more attention. Whether it is inside the human body or in the external environment, its final catabolism product is glutamic acid, which has no toxic and side effects on the human body. Polyglutamic acid has shown superiority in many fields. In the future, driven by supply-side reforms and green environmental protection policies, downstream pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, agriculture and other fields need to continuously upgrade their industrial structures, and the market demand for polyglutamic acid will continue to grow accordingly.
