Beta Alanine prices in Germany, the highest-cost reporting region, eased 0.9% in Q3 2026 to USD 4.52/KG from USD 4.56/KG in Q2, as easing ammonia and acrylic feedstock costs, with Tampa ammonia down for four straight months, trimmed offers slightly while sports nutrition demand stayed steady. US prices eased 0.9% to USD 4.22/KG, while China prices eased 1.0% to USD 2.95/KG. Globally, the average eased from USD 3.90/KG in Q2 to USD 3.86/KG in Q3, a 1.0% decline, following a gain of 1.0% in Q2. For H2 2026, this market is expected to stay stable to slightly soft, with easing nitrogen feedstock costs offset by steady sports nutrition and supplement demand.

Beta Alanine is the naturally occurring non-essential beta amino acid that combines with histidine to form carnosine in muscle, made industrially from acrylic acid or acrylonitrile and ammonia. It is used in sports nutrition and pre-workout supplements, pharmaceutical and food supplement products, and as an intermediate for pantothenic acid, carnosine, and other chemicals. Because ammonia and acrylic derivatives are its inputs, this market follows nitrogen and acrylic chain costs and supplement and sports nutrition demand. Ammonia and acrylic derivative costs, sports nutrition and supplement demand, and pantothenic acid demand are what drive prices in this market.
