• The South Korea Collagen Artificial Casings Market size is expected to hold a significant Share by 2035

According to a Research Report Published by Spherical Insights & Consulting, the South Korea Collagen Artificial Casings Market Size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2025 to 2035. The market is driven by rising demand for processed meat products, especially sausages, and the need for uniform, high-quality casings compatible with automated production. Increasing use of collagen in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics further supports market growth.

Market Overview

Collagen artificial casings are made from animal collagen, a product of cow, pig, and sheep hides, and serve as uniform, mechanically robust alternatives for natural sausage casings. Collagen casings are also increasingly popular in South Korea because of increasing demand for processed meat products and the increasing application of standardized, machine-compatible foods in food processing. Collagen casings are uniform in diameter, strength, and handling ability and well suited for high-speed processing. In addition to this, increasing numbers of Korean consumers adopting Western-style sausages and convenience foods also lead food processors to employ collagen casings as they are efficient and economical. Apart from meat products, collagen has its uses in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry, which further widens the market base. Increased demand for safe and homogeneous casing materials due to the move towards automation, increased urbanization, and health and sanitation issues is also fueling demand. Innovation and multi-function applications are further driving the market towards development.
