Biosurfactants Market by Type (Sophorolipids, Rhamnolipids, Lipopeptides), Application (Detergents, Personal Care, Food Processing, Agriculture Chemicals), and Region (Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, South America) - Global Forecast to 2028

In terms of value, the biosurfactants market is estimated to grow from USD 1.2 Billion in 2022 to USD 2.3 Billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 11.0%. Detergents and cleaning supplies are among the industries in which biosurfactants are most widely used. By lowering the surface tension of the water and boosting the removal of dirt and stains, they enhance the wetting and cleaning characteristics of these solutions. Cosmetics, skincare, and toiletries all use biosurfactants. In order to improve the emulsification and dispersion of cosmetic components, they function as mild and gentle surfactants.

“Sophorolipids is estimated to be the largest type of the biosurfactants, in terms of value, during the forecast period.”

The demand for sophorolipids has been increasing in recent years, primarily due to growing concerns about the environmental and health impacts of traditional surfactants. Because sophorolipids are biodegradable, they degrade in the environment into harmless components. This eco-friendly trait is in line with the rising demand for green and sustainable products. Sophorolipids are used in a variety of products, such as detergents, cosmetics, personal care items, food, and environmental cleanup. This versatility has contributed to their growing adaptability.

“Personal care is expected to be the fastest-growing application of the biosurfactants market, in terms of value, during the forecast period.”

The need for eco-friendly and sustainable components in cosmetic and personal care products is causing a growth in the usage of biosurfactants in the personal care business. Biosurfactants are valuable and appealing options for formulators because to their many benefits in personal care applications. Biosurfactants are becoming more popular as regulatory bodies promote the use of ecologically friendly components in personal care products.

“North America is projected to be the second- fastest growing region, in terms of value, during the forecast period in the biosurfactants market.”
