Global Amino Acid Surfactants Market Analysis Trends, Applications, Analysis, Growth, and Forecast to 2028

“Global Amino Acid Surfactants Market Analysis Trends, Applications, Analysis, Growth, and Forecast to 2028” is a recent report generated by MarketResearch.biz. The global amino acid surfactants market report has been segmented on the basis of type, application, and region.

Global Amino Acid Surfactants Market: Overview

Amino acid surfactants are biocompatible and biodegradable surfactants obtained by condensation of natural amino acids with fatty acids of oleo-chemical source. Hydrolysis of triglycerides from animal fat or vegetable oils furnishes a wide variety of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with straight hydrocarbon chains. The use of non-edible waste cooking oils is also a viable alternative, and further contributes to reduce the environmental burden.

Amino acid surfactants can be produced in large scale by green chemistry approaches including enzyme-catalyzed synthesis using immobilized lipases and proteases, although chemical processes still prevail due to high yields and low production costs.

The wide diversity of amino acid surfactants with different structures and properties is only possible due to multi-functionality nature of amino acid residue.

Global Amino Acid Surfactants Market: Dynamics

Flourishing cosmetic industry in developed and developing countries and increasing adoption of amino acid surfactants by manufacturers in production of home care products such as shampoo and facial cleaner are major factors expected to drive growth of the global amino acid surfactants market. In addition, increasing spending capacity on child care products, coupled with high adoption of amino acid surfactants by manufacturers in production of baby care products, owing to mild cleansing property is another factor expected to support growth of the market to certain extent.

However, stringent government regulations related to product approval is a major factor expected to hamper growth of the global amino acid surfactants market.

Increasing investment by major manufacturers to expand their present production capacity in order to cater the growing demand for amino acid surfactants is expected to create new opportunities in terms of revenue for players operating in the target market over the forecast period.

In 2018 Ajinomoto Co., Inc., a Japan based company invested US$ 3.81 Mn at Tokai Plant in Tokyo for construction of new production line for amino acid-based surfactants. This new line will increase the company’s overall production by 70% and enable it to meet increasing demand.

Global Amino Acid Surfactants Market: Segment Analysis

Among the type segments, the glutamicacid based surfactant segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Among the application segments, the shampoo segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Global Amino Acid Surfactants Market: Region

The market in North America is expected to dominate in the global amino acid surfactants market and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This dominance can be attributed to flourishing cosmetic industry and presence of major players operating in the countries in this region. In addition, increasing expansion activities through strategic mergers and acquisitions is expected to further support growth of the market in this region to certain extent.

The market in Asia Pacific is expected to witness faster growth, owing to rising disposable income, increasing spending capacity, increasing demand for grooming products, and presence of prominent players operating in emerging economies in this region.
