Reports
The global natural surfactants market is anticipated to witness moderate growth during the forecast period between 2021 and 2031.
Natural surfactants are active agents, which are procured from a natural source such as a plant or an animal. They are generally obtained from a separation method such as precipitation, distillation, or extraction.
Bacteria, sugars and, amino acids are a few substances, which have been traditionally used in the manufacturing of natural surfactants.
Natural surfactant products have low toxicity and are biodegradable, in nature. The low toxicity aspect of natural surfactants has made them suitable for use in the pharmaceutical and health industries and they could become a preferred choice over other chemicals, in other industries, in future.
Rising demand for different types of detergents for laundry and dishwater purposes is a key growth driver for the global natural surfactants market.
The low surface tension feature of natural surfactants is expected to fuel product demand and help in the growth of the overall natural surfactants market, in future.
In addition to this, environmental issues, fluctuating oil prices, and regulatory enforcements are expected to drive the natural surfactants market, in the coming years.
Government initiatives and measures promoting the use of chemical-free supplements are expected to fuel the growth in the global natural surfactants market, in the next few years as well.
Population growth worldwide and the increasing use of cosmetics are expected to propel the natural surfactants market, in the years ahead.
The detergents segment is expected to make the largest contribution to the overall natural surfactants market, owing to factors such as increasing washing machine penetration, particularly in developing countries such as India.
The global natural surfactants market is highly competitive, with the presence of several established players. These players are expected to adopt different product strategies in a bid to remain competitive in the overall market, in the coming years.
Research and development undertakings to help manufacture improved quality of natural surfactants is expected to be a key growth strategy for leading natural surfactants market players in future.
Collaborations with lesser-known players could also help prominent players expand their market presence and increase their revenue share.
Some of the leading players in the global natural surfactants market include BASF SE, Clariant AG, Dow Chemicals, CECA Arkema Group, and Croda International PLC.
The global natural surfactants market is divided into five regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East and Africa.
Europe is expected to witness maximum growth in the natural surfactants market in the coming years. An expected rise in demand for oilfield and detergents in countries such as UK and Germany is expected to fuel product demand and help in the growth of the overall natural surfactants market, in the region.
North America is expected to stand second in the natural surfactants market, owing to the rising demand for chemical-free supplements. Government legislation, concerning the use of natural surfactants, in countries such as the U.S and Canada is also anticipated to propel the overall natural surfactants market.
Asia Pacific is expected to stand third in the global natural surfactants market. Rising foreign investments in countries such as India and China and rapid industrialization in these countries are expected to bolster the natural surfactants market, in the region.
Latin America is expected to stand fourth, owing to the increased use of chemical-free detergents in countries such as Brazil for mining activities.
Middle East and Africa is expected to witness sluggish growth in the natural surfactants market, in the years to come.
