Global emollients & oils for personal care and cosmetics market share

The demand for deodorants has witnessed a rise, with the introduction of newer and advanced products, such as moisturizing deodorants and antiperspirants, gas-less deodorants, and alcohol-free deodorants. Large-scale utilization of such products in the U.S. and the European countries, such as Germany, the U.K., Italy, France, and Spain is positively influencing demand for emollients and oils.

The galenic formulation of sun care cosmetics is based on the composition that includes oil phase optimized by a selection of emollient esters. These esters enhance the spreadability and sensory properties of products, thereby resulting in a uniform distribution of the product on the skin. Furthermore, they are also known to enhance the solubilization of sun care products, which, in turn, improves the absorption of UV radiation, thereby sufficing the regulatory requirements of these products. Ascending demand for sun care cosmetics offering easy applicability along with enhanced protection is projected to boost the consumption of emollients and oils over the foreseeable future.

Regional Insights

North America is expected to generate revenue of over USD 400 million by 2025. The establishment of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in 1994, allowing free trade agreement across U.S., Mexico, and Canada has increased consumer access to multinational brands, particularly in the mass product category, and has also intensified the competition across personal care and cosmetics industry. High competition necessitates improvement in manufacturing efficiencies, better economies of scale, and enhanced distribution channels.

Europe is projected to witness a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2025. The robust manufacturing base of personal care products in France, the U.K., and Germany are expected to emerge as a promising factor for business growth.

In 2017, Asia Pacific held a market share of over 25% in terms of revenue. Rising preference for natural-based products over their synthetic counterparts is expected to have a favorable impact on the regional growth over the forecast timeframe. The growth in India can be attributed to rising awareness pertaining to beauty and wellness coupled with rapidly changing lifestyle of consumers.
