Astaxanthin Market to Reach USD 726.6 Million by 2035, Driven by Rising Demand for Natural Antioxidants and Anti-Aging Products

The global astaxanthin market stood at USD 298.6 million in 2025 and is expected to surge to USD 726.6 million by 2035, expanding at a robust CAGR of 9.3% during the forecast period. This strong growth trajectory is fueled by heightened awareness of astaxanthinโ€™s powerful antioxidant properties and its expanding application across nutraceuticals, cosmetics, animal feed, and aquaculture.

Increasing preference for natural, non-synthetic supplements is driving the shift toward astaxanthin-based products. Moreover, the growing health concerns among millennials and Gen Zโ€”especially related to chronic conditions and premature agingโ€”are further accelerating demand. The rising popularity of astaxanthin in skincare products, particularly for its rejuvenating and anti-aging effects, has significantly broadened its consumer base.
