The global chitosan market has been divided on the basis of application into agrochemical, industrial, water
treatment, food and beverage, biomedicine and pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and others. The others segment
has been sub-segmented into photographic products and fuel cells. The water treatment segment and
cosmetics segment accounts for the largest share in the global chitosan market. The increasing demand for
wastewater treatment chemicals owing to rapid industrialization and growing urban population is one of the
major factors driving the water treatment segment. Chitosan is majorly used as a flocculant in order to treat
wastewater. On the other hand, the growing demand for organic cosmetics in hair care, skin care, and oral
care products is propelling the cosmetics segment.
The global chitosan market has been classified on the basis of geography into North America, Europe, Asia
Pacific, and Rest of the World. In 2013, Asia Pacific held a 55% share in the global chitosan market owing to
the substantial contribution from China and Japan. Asia Pacific was followed by North America, which accounts
for the highest demand for chitosan. The rapid growth of North America can be attributed to the increasing
demand for chitosan for application across diverse sectors such as pharmaceuticals, biomedical, and
cosmetics.
