The Global Chondroitin Sulphate Market was valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% to reach USD 2.4 billion by 2035.

The market is gaining steady momentum as awareness around joint health continues to rise among aging populations and health-focused consumers worldwide. The increasing incidence of joint discomfort and mobility-related conditions is encouraging greater consumption of nutritional supplements and functional products formulated with chondroitin sulphate.
