Lactobionic acid is formed by oxidation of the disaccharide lactose. It is a molecule in which the PHA gluconolactone is attached to a sugar, galactose. Lactobionic acid takes the properties of bulk and polarity still further than the PHAs, with the added benefit of being a strong antioxidant and iron chelator. It has appeared on the commercial scene as a versatile polyhydroxy acid with numerous promising applications in the food, medicine, pharmaceutical, cosmetics and chemical industries.In 2024, global Lactobionic Acid production reached approximately 182 MT, with an average global market price of around US$ 115 per kg.
The global lactobionic acid market is driven by growing demand in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food industries due to its antioxidant, moisturizing, and chelating properties. In cosmetics and personal care, lactobionic acid is valued for its ability to gently exfoliate, improve skin texture, and support anti-aging formulations, making it a popular alternative to harsher alpha hydroxy acids. The pharmaceutical sector uses it in drug delivery systems and organ preservation solutions because of its biocompatibility and stability, while the food industry employs it as a preservative and calcium fortification agent. Increasing consumer preference for mild, multifunctional ingredients in skincare and the rising trend toward clean-label and natural-derived additives are further boosting market expansion.
Regionally, North America and Europe lead due to advanced cosmetic and pharmaceutical manufacturing bases, high consumer awareness, and strong R&D activity. However, the Asia-Pacific region is experiencing the fastest growth, fueled by expanding cosmetics production in countries such as South Korea, Japan, and China, as well as growing healthcare infrastructure. Market players are investing in biotechnological production methods to reduce costs and improve purity, making lactobionic acid more accessible for mass-market applications. Continued innovation in applications-particularly in anti-aging skincare and medical preservation-alongside rising adoption in functional foods, is expected to sustain steady market growth over the next decade.
