Glycerin Market Trends:
There is currently a considerable rise in the utilization of glycerin in the manufacturing of hand sanitizers, soaps, hand washes, and detergents on account of the contagious outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the alarming need to protect against the spread of the pandemic. This represents one of the key factors propelling the growth of the market. Glycerin helps prevent the loss of moisture from products so that they do not dry out. Consequently, it is widely utilized as denaturants, fragrance ingredients, oral care agents, hair conditioning agents, skin protectants, and viscosity-decreasing agents worldwide. It is also increasingly employed in the production of numerous personal care products, such as toothpaste, shaving creams, and skin and hair products to provide smoothness and lubrication. Moreover, glycerin finds extensive applications in the food and beverage (F&B) industry due to its ability to function as a humectant, solvent, preservative, and sweetener. This, coupled with the expanding application of glycerin as a polymer building block to manufacture alkyd resins and polyurethanes for usage in paints, inks, and coatings, is contributing to market growth. Other major factors, including the thriving pharmaceutical industry and the escalating demand for biodiesel, are creating a favorable market outlook.Key Market Segmentation:
