Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market Booming to Touch USD 1.9 Billion by 2031

Published | 30 June 2025

Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market is flourishing because of the escalating demand for MCI in the pharmaceutical sector, increasing adoption of MCI across the food and beverages industry, and the surging usage of MCI in personal care and cosmetics applications.

BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market size at USD 1,157.08 million in 2024. During the forecast period between 2025 and 2031, BlueWeave expects Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market size to expand at a significant CAGR of 7.34% reaching a value of USD 1,899.74 million by 2031. The growth Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market across the regions is propelled by versatile applications of MCC across the pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, and personal care products industries. Derived mainly from wood pulp, MCC's multifunctional properties, including inertness, excellent compressibility, and enhanced powder flow, make it a preferred excipient (binder, filler, disintegrant) in pharmaceutical tablets. In the food industry, rising health consciousness fuels demand for functional foods and dietary supplements, where MCC is vital as a bulking and anti-caking agent. The personal care and cosmetics sector also contributes to the market expansion, utilizing MCC for its absorbent and texture-modifying capabilities. While relatively high production costs and varying regional regulations may pose some limitations, the increasing global preference for natural, plant-based, and high-performance ingredients continues to bolster the growth of Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market during the period in analysis.

Impact of Escalating Geopolitical Tensions on Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market

Intensifying geopolitical tensions could disrupt the growth of Global Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) Market. Such tensions routinely disrupt international trade routes and restrict the movement of critical raw materials like wood pulp and cotton, leading to considerable supply chain instability. Furthermore, the imposition of sanctions, tariffs, and general political instability can drive up production costs and introduce substantial uncertainties in sourcing and distribution. The volatility in energy prices, often a direct consequence of conflicts, can further inflate manufacturing expenses. Collectively, these factors impede market growth, particularly in regions with high import or export dependencies. Consequently, companies may struggle to maintain consistent supply and pricing, ultimately impacting the availability of MCC across the world.
