The North America mosquito repellent market size was estimated at USD 969.6 million in 2016. The rising threat of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue, malaria, chikungunya, Zika virus, and yellow fever is expected to fuel demand for the product.
The market includes a wide range of products such as repellent sprays, coils, creams and oils, vaporizers, and others such as mats, wearable bands, and candles. Market growth is majorly attributed to government initiatives being undertaken for disease control, rising health awareness among people, and the affordable cost of these products.
Several research agencies are carrying out R&D investments in the field for several years. This has helped discover various safe and natural raw materials that can be used to formulate advanced products. Major players in the market are also focused on manufacturing products that suit all types of indoor and outdoor requirements. Creams, vaporizers, and sprays are now increasingly being used by consumers to protect themselves from mosquito bites. An increase in the number of mosquito-borne diseases has led to rising awareness among consumers about the need to use such products.
N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (DEET) and diethyl carbonate are major raw materials used for production. Various opportunities prevail for the industry owing to increasing penetration in untapped markets and rising demand for plant-based products. Mosquito repellents protect for outdoors as well as indoors and are used for controlling mosquito growth. Improvement in standard of living and increasing urbanization and population has propelled product demand, particularly in tropical areas in the region.
Various types of products available in the market include vaporizers, coils, mats, sprays, bands, and candles. Innovative products are being manufactured by major players in the industry to expand their reach.
Vaporizers formed the largest product segment, accounting for 32.7% of the market revenue in 2016. N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (DEET), citronella oil, Diethyl carbonate, ethyl hexane diol, and diethyl phthalate are some of the raw materials used for product formulation. Prices of these raw materials and their usage in various other applications are expected to have a significant impact on product manufacturing, which is in turn expected to affect industry growth. DEET is considered to be the best available raw material since its duration of protection and broad-spectrum effectiveness is unbeatable.
Supermarkets emerged as the largest distribution channel segment in the North America mosquito repellent market, accounting for 46.9% of the market revenue in 2016. The use of the product is expected to increase over the years owing to the increased risk of mosquito-borne diseases and rising awareness among people.
These products are sold in all types of supermarkets, hypermarkets, convenience stores, and specialty retailers. They are now also sold on e-commerce websites, improving accessibility and availability. Affordable prices of these products are expected to further propel the demand for the product.
The North American market was estimated at USD 969.6 million in 2016 and is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.5% from 2017 to 2025. Increasing demand for the product in the U.S. for protection against diseases such as West Nile Virus (WNV), Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), and Zika Virus (ZIKV) is expected to propel industry growth over the forecast period.
The U.S. market value was estimated at USD 543.7 million in 2015 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 8.0% from 2017 to 2025.
