Brazil a Booming Market for the Cosmetic Industry
Historically, Brazil’s cosmetic industry has been accelerating twice the speed of its national economy. But due to an economic downturn in 2015-16, the beauty industry also had to face sluggish growth. Now, when Brazil is fully recovering from its economic slowdown, obtaining positive GDP growth in 2017, it is anticipated that the improved economic outlook is likely to have a positive effect on the cosmetic industry of the country, supporting the growth of the castor oil market over the forecast period. Consumers in Brazil have become very sophisticated about their tastes, which is transforming the personal care and cosmetic industry significantly, and making it one of the fastest growing markets on the planet. As a result, castor oil is witnessing increasing demand in the market in Brazil.
Stringent Regulations and Standards May Create Challenging Situations for Manufacturers
Due to similar physical properties of petroleum oils, animal fats, and vegetable oils, which can have undesirable effects on the environment, oils and fats are regulated by most governments in the world. As various toxic products can be formed by using castor oil, which can torment the ecosystem, various governments impose regulations on processes involving the production, storage, and transportation of castor seeds and castor oil. Also, labeling requirements for food and procedures for gaining approvals for distribution of the product can prove to be difficult for manufacturers and distributors. Due to the imposition of standards and certification requirements that are difficult to meet, the market growth for castor oil can get hampered in the future.
Higher Dependency on Imported Goods
In general, the current rate of castor oil production in North America or Europe is not considered sufficient to cater to the increasing demand. The castor oil market is highly active in nature, as the supply and demand situation keeps on shifting from one hand to another. Castor oil and its derivatives are the key ingredients in the chemical, cosmetic, and personal care industries. Since castor oil is also used to cure sicknesses and stimulate well-being, many consumers from the Western world are demanding these products. However, due to less production of castor oil and absence of international players, consumers have to rely on imported good from countries such as India and Brazil, who produce these products on a very large scale. As of 2016, India alone produced almost around 92% of the world supply of castor oil.
