According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Squalene Softgel Capsules market size was valued at US$ 1583 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 2363 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 6.0% during review period.
In 2024, global annual production capacity for squalene softgel capsules was about 92 million bottles, while actual production reached 65.9 million bottles. The average global retail price was around US$22 per bottle, and profit margins ranged from 30% to 45%, depending on purity levels and sourcing costs. Squalene softgel capsules are dietary supplements containing squalene extracted from shark liver oil or plant sources such as olives and amaranth. Squalene is valued for its antioxidant properties, skin health benefits, and immune-supporting effects. The softgel format improves stability, bioavailability, and ease of consumption.
Upstream includes shark liver oil suppliers, plant-derived squalene extractors (olive, amaranth), gelatin producers, and excipients such as glycerin and antioxidants. Midstream consists of nutraceutical manufacturers responsible for formulation, encapsulation, quality testing, and packaging. Leading producers come from the U.S., Japan, and China. Downstream includes pharmacies, health supplement retailers, e-commerce channels, beauty supplement brands, and wellness clinics. End users focus on purity levels, source transparency (marine vs. plant-based), capsule stability, and compliance with FDA, EFSA, and health supplement regulations.
The global squalene softgel market is expanding due to rising consumer awareness of antioxidant supplements and skin health benefits. Plant-derived squalene is gaining rapid traction as sustainability concerns reduce reliance on shark-derived sources. The beauty-from-within trend and growth in preventive healthcare are further stimulating market demand. Asia-Pacific remains the fastest-growing region, supported by strong supplement consumption habits and e-commerce distribution. Despite competition from other antioxidants such as CoQ10 and vitamin E, squalene maintains a differentiated position in skin hydration and immune support. Manufacturers focusing on plant-based extraction, high purity, and clean-label formulations are expected to gain market share.
