The global natural surfactants market was valued at $21.9 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $35.2 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5% from 2023 to 2032.
A natural surfactant, also known as a bio-based or plant-derived surfactant, is a type of surface-active agent that is derived from renewable and naturally occurring sources. Surfactants are molecules that have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) parts, which allow them to lower the surface tension between liquids and solids or between different liquids. This property makes surfactants valuable in a wide range of applications, including cleaning, personal care, agriculture, and industrial processes.
The factors such as improvement in the standard of living, positive effect of beauty and personal care products on self-esteem, and rapid shift of consumers toward luxurious and premium cosmetic brands have spurred the personal care and cosmetic industry. For instance, according to an article published by Cosmetics Europe in the year 2021, the personal care industry is valued at ?80 billion at a retail sales price in 2021. The natural surfactant carries all the essential assets for the body and skin. Natural surfactant possesses properties such as dispersant, anti-viral, cleansing, anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory due to these attributes it is mainly used in the manufacturing of lotions, face creams, deodorants, soaps, shower gels, and among other products. These factors together act as one of the key drivers responsible for the growth of the natural surfactant market during the forecast period.
The cost of sourcing, processing, and refining natural ingredients result in higher product prices. Furthermore, some natural ingredients used in surfactants have limited availability due to factors like seasonal variations, geographic constraints, and agricultural challenges.?These factors are projected to hamper market growth.
The factors such as rise in global population, increase in the demand for food, import and export trade, advancement of technology, and booming agriculture sector have witnessed the significant growth of natural surfactant. For instance, according to an article published by India Brand Equity Foundation in August 2022, the Indian agricultural sector is predicted to increase to $ 24 billion by 2025. These factors are booming the growth of natural surfactant in the agriculture sector where it is employed widely on crops as a biofertilizer and thus, helps in maintaining the crop yield and soil porosity during the natural calamity. This is projected to enhance the demand for the natural surfactant market; thus, creating lucrative opportunities for the future. This factor is projected to offer new avenues for the natural surfactant market.
