Plasma Powder Market Research, 2031
The global plasma powder market was valued at $2.7 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $4.3 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2022 to 2031. Plasma powder is a high-quality animal protein source that can be used to improve the texture of extrudates, chunks, and pate. It has a protein content of more than 70%, a fat content of less than 2.5%, and a mineral content of 2%. It is a completely digested component with a modest calorific content (4 kcal/g).
The protein has an excellent amino acid composition, with a high concentration of lysine, leucine, and arginine. Plasma protein powder is a superior-quality protein-based binder that promotes good nutrition while also improving palatability. It is appropriate for all types of pet food recipes, snacks, and treats. The increase in demand for plasma powder in the animal protein source is driving the growth of the plasma powder market forecast period.
The global growth of the plasma powder market is expected to be significantly hampered during the forecast period due to the availability of alternatives at significantly lower rates as well as a lack of awareness among farming communities in developing and underdeveloped countries. The plasma powder undergoes multiple processes that involve melting, cooling, and grinding. Any errors committed throughout these stages might have a severe influence on the end product's quality, this factor is expected to hamper the plasma powder market demand.
Pet food producers are concerned about the increase in demand for new ingredients, as well as the increase in the adoption of pets. Furthermore, ingredient considerations are a crucial issue in boosting pet food palatability, particularly for cats, in creating the optimum texture. Plasma powder manufacturers are proactively focusing on introducing new product ranges to deliver efficient plasma powder solutions for pets to create a marketplace in the pet food industry. This is creating lucrative business opportunities for the manufacturers operating in the market. Furthermore, the market for plasma powder is anticipated to open up new opportunities owing to the growing demand for bovine powder.

Porcine-derived spray-dried plasma is rich in protein and a popular ingredient in canned pet food due to its physicochemical qualities, which also help to promote market expansion. The rise in the acceptability of plasma feed in pet food is generating a strong demand for higher premium pet food, which is also expected to drive the plasma powder market growth.
By form, the dry sub-segment dominated the global plasma powder market share in 2021. The dry form provides efficient binding, high protein value, and delivers a more palatable and digestible solution. These properties enhance the shelf life of the product as well as maintain the adoption of on-the-go eating habits change. These factors are projected to drive the segment growth during the forecast period.
By sales channel, the online sub-segment dominated the global plasma powder market share in 2021. Online sales now make up about a quarter of the whole retail sector, and they are expanding at an astounding rate. Retailers who ignore e-commerce risk having less business as consumers continue to switch to online shopping All these are major factors anticipated to drive the segment growth in the future.

Analyst Review
A plasma powder is added to pet food compositions to boost their nutritional value. It is a premium protein-based binder that encourages healthy eating while enhancing palatability. Compared to other protein sources, this is a superior supplier of essential amino acids. A key factor propelling the market growth is the rise in focus of top companies on producing safe and nourishing animal feed. The restrictions on the use of antibiotics and the rise in consumer concern about maintaining overall health are expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period. However, high initial investments for R&D activities and environmental concerns associated with plasma powder are the key factors expected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Feed flavor and gut health can both be improved with plasma powder. It is anticipated that more spray-dried plasma powder would be used as a feed substitute for zinc oxide and prophylactic antibiotics. The development of novel plasma-derived medicines is advancing the pharmaceutical sector. In addition, the rise in the incidence of genetic illnesses will probably encourage medical professionals to use plasma-derived medications as a form of treatment. Concerns regarding the health of pets are raised by the rise in popularity of pets and the growth in demand for novel ingredients from pet food manufacturers.
