The natural surfactants market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 2,870.77 million in 2022 to US$ 3,836.30 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2022 to 2028.
There is an increasing focus on the production of products that cause less pollution and have low toxicity and high biodegradability. Bio-based surfactants or natural surfactants are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to improve the emulsification of hydrocarbons for various applications and ecological benefits. These kinds of surfactants are used in a variety of industries, including food, medicine, textiles, and oilfield chemicals. The use of conventional surfactants is restricted by strict environmental and governmental regulations, which is another factor projected to drive the demand for nontoxic and highly biodegradable bio-based surfactants. Consumers' preference for natural, ecologically friendly, and sustainable products is increasing. It also appears that, consumers are quick to demand products based on natural ingredients across the region. This is gaining widespread support from governments and organizations to reduce the environmental impact from consumers and end-user industries. The growing concern regarding the sourcing of natural oils, epically tropical oils, and producers of natural surfactants have joined organizations such as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), which favors the development of natural surfactants.
