56 MARINE INGREDIENTS At Cobiosa we have the technology to
extract and purify different macromolecules of marine origin, such as soluble collagen, glycogen, and elastin and transform them into biofunctional active ingredients with clinically proven cosmetic efficacy:
Marine collagen on the rise The global marine collagen market size is estimated to be valued at USD 778 million in 2021 and is projected to reach USD 1,137 million by 2026. The increasing available income among
consumers and rising awareness regarding beauty and personal care segments is expected to contribute to the growth of the marine collagen market. By type, the type I marine collagen
segment is projected to dominate the market during the forecasted period. This is attributed to the increased consumption and preference among consumers, due to the intrinsic health benefits of this type of collagen and its effectiveness as a protein source. Type I marine collagen provides several
cosmetic benefits like anti-aging, wrinkle reduction, and skin elasticity.
Blue biotechnology Blue biotechnology is the application of science and technology to living aquatic organisms for the production of knowledge, goods, and services. Our purest and most concentrated collagen is obtained from the skins of blue ling (Molva molva), a species of gadiform fish typical of the Atlantic Ocean.
Figure 2: Blue Economy Conference. The raw material is sustainably extracted
from FAO 27 fishing areas, in the Baltic and NE Atlantic sea. The fish are caught in their natural habitats, which protects the collagen from direct exposure to harmful antibiotics and hormones. This also creates a significantly lower impact on the environment. Once captured, the skins and other by-
products are discarded. Through different natural extraction processes, we obtain native collagen of the highest concentration, quality, and purity: Bio-Marine Collagen 6 PH and Bio-Marine Collagen Hair. Bio-Marine Collagen 6 PH is one of the most
concentrated marine collagen active ingredients in the market, with an extraordinarily high concentration of marine origin soluble collagen, from 5.00 to 7.2 %, and a purity of 99%, with less than 1% of non-collagenic proteins. Bio-Marine Collagen Hair is a high
concentration of marine origin soluble collagen, from 2.5 to 3.5 %, and a purity of 99%, for hair care applications. Collagen is the main component of the dermis.
It is the most important protein in the human body as it represents around 30% of the total proteins and 80% of the skin proteins. It is a fibrous protein with a structural function, holding the upper layers of the skin. Different kinds of collagen can be found
simultaneously in the skin depending on the stage of the synthesis and their maturity level. There are, at least, 13 different collagen structures known. Collagen type I is the most abundant in the skin. Bio-Marine Collagen 6 PH has an amino acid
composition quite similar to the one found at the skin’s collagen type I.
Marine origin versus animal origin collagen Collagen derived from fish offers better bioavailability than collagen from bovine or porcine sources. Also, marine collagen offers better solubility
as it dissolves readily in water. Marine collagen is similar in composition
