Global Polymer Ingredients for Personal Care Market 2023-2030
Global Polymer Ingredients for Personal Care Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Type (Natural Polymers and Synthetic polymers), by Ingredient (Surfactants, Conditioning Polymers, Emulsifying Polymers, Rheology Modifiers, and Others), and by Application (Hair Care, Skin Care, Color Cosmetics, Sun Care, Oral Hygiene, and Others) Forecast Period (2023-2030)
The global polymer ingredients for personal care market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period. Consumers are increasingly seeking out personal care products that are gentle, non-irritating, and environmentally friendly, and polymers help to meet these demands. Conditioning polymers deposit, adhere, and absorb into the proteins of the skin and hair. They improve skin feel and hair manageability, reduce static and make the skin and hair softer and smoother. Thus, owing to the rising demand for such polymers have pushed market players to develop and introduce variety of polymers to fulfil unmet requirements. For instance, in December 2021, Solvay introduced two additional thickening and conditioning polymers for personal care. The two new ingredients, Jaguar® NAT SGI for thickening and Jaguar® Excel for conditioning. The major applications of the polymers include shampoos, hair treatments, hair conditioners, styling gels, body washes, and powder-to-liquid cleansers.
Segmental Outlook
The global polymer ingredients for personal care market is segmented based on the type, ingredient, and application. Based on the type, the market is sub-segmented into natural polymers and synthetic polymers. Based on the ingredient, the market is sub-segmented surfactants, conditioning polymers, emulsifying polymers, rheology modifiers, and others including film-formers, modifiers, and protective barriers. Further, based on application, the market is sub-segmented into hair care, skin care, color cosmetics, sun care, oral hygiene, and others which covers sanitizer, soap, and disinfectants.
The Surfactants Sub-Segment is Anticipated to Hold Prominent Share in the Global Polymer Ingredients for Personal Care Market
