Market Overview:
The global pharmaceutical grade ceramide market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of skin diseases, rising awareness about the benefits of ceramides, and growing demand for natural ingredients in cosmetics products. Based on type, the global pharmaceutical grade ceramide market is segmented into fermentation ceramide and plant extract ceramide. The fermentation ceramide segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than the plant extract ceramide segment during the forecast period. This can be attributed to technological advancements in manufacturing processes that have led to an increase in production capacity and reduced costs of fermentation-derived products. Based on application, the global pharmaceutical gradeceramide market is divided into atopic dermatitis, eczema, other applications (including psoriasis), and acne vulgaris.
Product Definition:
Ceramide is a type of lipid molecule that is naturally found in the skin. It helps to protect the skin from moisture loss and environmental factors, and also plays a role in cell signaling. Ceramide levels decline as we age, which can lead to dryness, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. A pharmaceutical grade ceramide product is one that has been purified and standardized to meet specific quality criteria.
Fermentation Ceramide:
Ceramide is a biochemical naturally occurring lipid in the skin that acts as an important building block for the protection of cells, especially in the epidermis. Ceramide plays an essential role in maintaining and restoring skin hydration levels after exposure to UV light or environmental stress such as pollution, etc. The increasing demand for ceramides among skincare manufacturers has led to significant growth of this market over recent years.
Plant Extract Ceramide:
Plant extract ceramide is a plant-based ingredient that has been used for centuries to treat skin dryness, aging, and inflammation. Ceramide is an important lipid molecule found in the skin that helps maintain moisture balance in the epidermis. As we age, this balance gets disrupted leading to dryness of the skin which can result in wrinkles and other signs of aging.
Application Insights:
The other application segment includes cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders. Ceramide is used in the treatment of atopic dermatitis due to its anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties. It is also used for the treatment of dryness associated with atopic dermatitis, xerosis or hypopigmentation caused by eczema as well as for skin aging effects such as wrinkles and loss of elasticity.
The manufacturing process involves hydrolysis followed by acid/base catalyzed esterification to manufacture ceramide diesters which are further purified by crystallization or chromatography depending on their degree of oxidation.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global pharmaceutical grade ceramide market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period as well. This can be attributed to increasing R&D activities and rising healthcare expenditure in emerging countries such as China, India, South Korea, and Singapore. In addition, growing consumer awareness regarding skin diseases and rapid urbanization are other factors contributing toward regional growth.
The Asia Pacific pharmaceutical grade ceramide market is anticipated to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period due to an increase in product demand from various application segments such as atopic dermatitis & eczema care products owing to high prevalence of these conditions across emerging economies including China & India; topical anti-aging cream; oral anti-cancer drug; immunosuppressant drug for organ transplantation etc., which further drives product demand globally (see Figure 1).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for ceramides in cosmetics and skin care products
- Rising prevalence of skin disorders such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and eczema
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using pharmaceutical grade ceramides for skin health
- Increasing research and development activities focused on the use of ceramides in therapeutics applications
- Technological advancements that enable the production of high-quality pharmaceutical grade ceramides
