The price of Biotin 2% in the year 2025 showed a stable but fluctuating pattern in the global market. The price in the first quarter showed a mixed trend within a narrow range. This was because the supply in the market was quite high, and buyers were taking a cautious approach. The buyers thought that the availability of the product in the market would not allow the price to rise, and hence, they were only interested in buying in the short term. The entry of new suppliers in the market maintained a balanced price, and there was no rise in the price. The demand for the product from animal feed, supplements, and personal care remained constant.
In the second and third quarters, prices continued to vary slightly with comfortable inventory levels and moderate trading activity. Buyers were making small and timely purchases, while producers continued to maintain production levels to avoid oversupply. In the United States, high inventory levels resulting from earlier stockpiling resulted in low demand. Prices were stable in the fourth quarter, followed by a slight downward movement as global production picked up and demand weakened. Comfortable inventory levels were maintained by the major producing countries, and careful demand from overseas markets put downward pressure on the price.

In the second half of 2024, the prices of Biotin 2% exhibited moderate fluctuations, remaining largely within a stable band. During the third quarter, the market was stable with moderate price fluctuations caused by occasional supply chain disruptions. Purchasing activities were already high during the earlier period when prices were low, which resulted in minimal demand during this time. Demand for the product remained stable in the supplement and skincare industries. Prices were unable to rise rapidly due to weak cost support and stable trading conditions. A temporary incident at one of the German plants resulted in supply chain disruption for a short time, which caused some market instability. However, the incident had little effect on the vitamin market.
In the fourth quarter, prices of Biotin 2% increased as demand increased in key markets such as Europe and North America. This was because of increased consumer confidence and a favorable economic environment, leading to higher buying activity. This resulted in a buildup of stocks before holiday-related shutdowns at factories and ports, thus exerting upward pressure on prices.
In general, Biotin is a B group vitamin that plays a crucial role in the formation of keratin in the hoof. Biotin 2%, a free-flowing Biotin powder, is widely used as a supplemental source of biotin in the preparation of livestock feeds. As deficiency of Biotin in the diet may result in hair loss and low fertility in animals, for instance, in poultry it leads to poor feathering, inflammation of beak, legs and toes, fatty liver and kidney syndrome (FLKS), its proper intake is extremely necessary. Thus, it helps in maintaining good animal health.
