Algae Industry Facts

The algae industry is an unstoppable global force with its worldwide fully sustainable and low impact economy. It is developing a new range of third generation applications as bioenergy, biofuels, and bio-based products. Algae can be cultivated to produce a variety of products for large to small markets. The 2014 global algae contributory market was estimated to be in excess of $ 7 billion.

Algae is a sustainable resource of biomass and oils for fuel because the plants produce and store energy in the form of oil more efficiently than any other known natural or engineered process. As with renewable aviation fuels, the algae vehicle fuel alternative is a “drop-in” replacement, which means it chemically mimics the properties of petroleum-based gasoline. In addition, green gasoline could be used at any blend level, in any gasoline engine. The US Navy and Air Force, as well as the world’s leading airlines, purchase and consume significant quantities of algae-based fuels annually.

Algae can be turned into bio-based products, such as plastics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial chemicals. Because protein and carbohydrate are produced by algae, it can be turned into health foods rich in omega-3s, as well as stockfeed for cattle, sheep, pigs, poultry and fish.

In the United States, many commercially minded algae researchers, algae producers, and equipment companies are focusing on new algae farming and indoor biomanufacturing opportunities for higher value products like nutraceuticals, cosmetics, feeds, food, ingredients, and bioplastics.

Algae Benefits

Some of algae’s many benefits include daily harvesting, high biofuel yields, consumption of CO2, wastewater purification, energy production, and farming multiplicity from ponds to photobioreactors to fermenters. Its promising long-term sustainability is credited primarily to the various methods of cultivation used on an algae farm.

The Algae Farm trademark (Registration #4038939) auction will run from noon May 13th to noon May 15th, 2015. Bidders may register for the auction and view specific details about the trademark at http://www.ipauctions.com.

Dentists in Canada Industry Market Research Report from IBISWorld Has Been Updated

Saturday, April 18th, 2015


New York, NY (PRWEB) March 15, 2015

Over the past five years, the Dentists industry has exhibited growth despite a slight decline in dental expenditures per capita. According to data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information, per capita expenditures for dental services marginally declined, which has slightly cut into the industry’s growth. Nevertheless, dental care still accounts for the second-largest share of private-sector medical spending. Among private-sector dental practices, individuals covered almost half of their dental care out-of-pocket. As a result, dental practices had lower administrative costs compared with the healthcare sector as a whole due to having to secure fewer reimbursements from health insurance providers.

Still, according to 2009 data (latest available) from Health Canada’s Canadian Health Measures Survey, about one-third of Canadians did not have dental insurance, which has posed a barrier to dental care for many Canadians. IBISWorld Economic Analyst Sarah Turk says in the updated report “furthermore, some provinces and territories had a very low dentist-to-patient ratio, which limited some Canadians’ access to dental care services.” According to 2013 data (latest available) from the Canadian Dental Association, some provinces, such as Newfoundland, New Brunswick and Saskatchewan, had significantly higher population to dentist ratios, compared with the Canadian average. Over the five years to 2015, industry revenue is anticipated to grow. Profit is expected to increase, due to the emergence of more multi-practitioner, group dental practices, which has enabled dentists to generate more in-house referrals, by providing general and specialized dentistry, and lower fixed operational costs.

Over the coming years, the burgeoning elderly population will spur demand for restorative, cosmetic, periodontal and orthodontic care. “For example, as this demographic keeps their natural teeth longer, thanks to the advent of new medical technologies, this trend will provide a boost to the industry,” Turk says in the updated report. In the five years to 2020, industry revenue is forecast to grow.

Strong Consumption in Paper and Plastic Production Drives the Calcium Carbonate Market, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Sunday, February 22nd, 2015

San Jose, California (PRWEB) January 30, 2015

Follow us on LinkedIn – Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) is an inorganic mineral that finds extensive use as a functional filler in the production of plastics, paper, and rubber. Along with talc and kaolin, the mineral is extensively used in metalloid mineral applications. Growth in the global calcium carbonate market is heavily reliant on the health of the paper, automotive, plastics, and construction industries. The paper industry’s shift from acid to alkaline-based process technology is expected to benefit demand for precipitated calcium carbonate derived from natural minerals. Consumer demand for high quality, waterproof, anti-smudge paper products will drive growth in the paper industry in the coming years. In the plastic processing industry, ground calcium carbonate finds indispensable use as an additive that helps improve surface opacity and gloss and increase impact strength of plastics. Growing demand for bioplastics is expected to spur volume consumption of calcium carbonate in the plastic processing industry.

Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) represents the largest and the fastest growing product market, supported by growing demand for paints and plastics from the construction sector in Asia-Pacific. China ranks as a major producer of calcium carbonate worldwide. The last decade witnessed the establishment of several satellite WGCC (wet ground calcium carbonate) plants in the country. Marble deposits represent the chief source of calcium carbonate for these plants. The increase in licenses granted for mining marble will additionally benefit production of premium ultra-fine wet ground calcium carbonate in the country. A key tend in the global market is the growing prominence of nano calcium carbonate. With particle sizes ranging from 1nm and 100nm, nano calcium carbonate is highly favored in plastic and rubber production due to characteristics such as high reinforcing effect, dispersion and transparency. With most of the current demand for calcium carbonate met by low- and middle-grade material, there exists huge potential for premium-grade calcium carbonate, especially in applications such as automobile paints, adhesives, cosmetics, ink, food, and pharmaceutical industries.

As stated by the new market research report on Calcium Carbonate, Asia-Pacific represents the largest and the fastest growing market worldwide. Growth in the region is led by the rise in paper production, establishment of new paper mills, and the trend towards the use of higher mineral fillers in paper to reduce pulp usage. China, in particular, is expected to remain a major growth driver spurred by increasing use in the paper and paperboard manufacturing sector.

Key players covered in the report include Excalibar Minerals LLC, Huber Engineered Materials, Imerys, Maruo Calcium Co. Ltd., Minerals Technologies Inc., Mississippi Lime Company, Okutama Kogyo Co. Ltd., Omya AG, Schaefer Kalk GmbH & Co. KG, Shiraishi Kogyo Kaisha Ltd., and Solvay S.A, among others.

The research report titled “Calcium Carbonate: A Global Strategic Business Report” announced by Global Industry Analysts Inc., provides a comprehensive review of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, restraints, market share, size and demand projections and forecasts. Major geographic regions covered include the US, Canada, Japan, Europe (France, Germany, Italy, UK, Spain, Russia and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, India, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), Middle East, and Latin America (Brazil and Rest of Latin America). Product segments analyzed include Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) and Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC). End-use markets analyzed include Paper, Paints & Coatings, Adhesives & Sealants, Plastics, and Others. The report also offers coverage on mergers, acquisitions, product launches and other strategic industry activities of major global and regional players.

Lipstick Manufacturing in the US Industry Market Research Report Now Available from IBISWorld

Monday, December 1st, 2014


New York, NY (PRWEB) November 19, 2014

Considered at once a discretionary product and an affordable luxury, the Lipstick Manufacturing industry may experience growth in periods of economic distress as well as periods of economic prosperity. According to IBISWorld Industry Analyst Sarah Kahn, “Despite volatile consumer sentiment and disposable income during the recession, consumers continued to demand new lipstick, sales of which declined much less in 2009 than cosmetics overall.” With the economic recovery and new fashion trends, consumers have begun to purchase diverse new products. After a lull in demand, in which consumers preferred lip gloss, lipstick came back into fashion in all colors, as well as moisturizing, natural and long-lasting brands. In the five years to 2014, revenue is expected to grow an average annual 7.3% to $ 1.4 billion, growing 5.8% in 2014 alone.

Focus on innovation and new product development will drive growth in the future. In the five years to 2019, revenue is forecast to expand. Profit margins will also rise as companies improve efficiency by automating the manufacturing process. Manufacturers are increasingly expected to develop niche products for a diversified customer base.

An increasingly health-conscious customer base is becoming progressively more aware and sensitive to product ingredients. “Consumers are increasingly concerned with using products that are chemical-based or have traces of metals or animal by-products, pushing companies to invest in research and development to offer new natural and safe products,” says Kahn. Additionally, consumers’ loyalty to individual labels has diminished, despite warnings that they should not mix skin care products from different brands. Manufacturers are expected to become increasingly competitive for these disloyal customers, targeting “cocktailing” consumers that combine different brands and layer different products on top of each other. Finally, as the sociocultural trend Nomcore becomes a fashion movement, consumers, including celebrities such as Beyonce and Kate Middleton, have embraced a bare-faced look, proudly adding hashtag #nomakeup to their selfies. The industry is expected to battle this existential threat in the coming five years.
