Surfactants
are synthetic or natural compounds, which lowers surface tension
between liquid and solid or two liquids. Surfactants include
ingredients in household products such as personal care and cleaners.
Surfactants can be sugar based or vegetable based or petroleum based.
Due to improved biodegradability and less toxicity there has been
increase in sugar based surfactants. Sugar based surfactants adds
benefit to “green chemistry” as it is derived from renewable and
natural sources. At commercial level, sugar based surfactants is now
available from about more than a decade. Sugar derived surfactants
are used in category of products for skin care, laundry and skin.
Sugar based surfactants offers more sustainable and stable varieties,
which can be used in consumer products, thus driving market demand
for sugar derived surfactants.

Vegetable
derived surfactants usually are unsuitable with polymers, traditional
surfactants and conditioning ingredients. These surfactants also face
issues related to the stability, foam quality and quantity and they
often fail to show and exhibit desirable synthetic ingredients
sensory characteristics. So in order to preserve sensory
characteristics and to guarantee shelf life sugar derived surfactants
were introduced, thus driving market demand. The characteristics
features of sugar derived surfactants such as its low toxicity,
cheapness, biodegradability, excellent cleaning and washing
abilities, environmental compatibility and high surface activity is
driving its market demand over synthetic chemicals and surfactants.
Trends
associated to sugar derived surfactants market are liquid laundry
products used at home replaced powders since 1990 till today.
Geographically,
the sugar
derived surfactants industry can be divided by major regions
which include North America, Latin America, Western and Eastern
Europe, Asia-Pacific region, Japan, Middle East and Africa. In volume
terms Europe is market leader for the use of sugar derived
surfactants followed by North America. Asia Pacific is also expected
to be the growing market for sugar derived surfactants. Asia Pacific
is one of the major producer of sugar cane and thus, procurement of
sugar derived surfactants is easy in that region. Countries like
China and India have wide presence of personal care industries and
agricultural industries, which is thus expected to increase the
market demand for sugar derived surfactants. Increasing consumer
demand for natural products is driving the market in developing
regions. It can be inferred that the market growth of the sugar
derived surfactants would be proportional in nature with the
respective growth rates of end use industries as the sugar derived
surfactants is a crucial aspect of their manufacturing process. Value
additions by suppliers backed by maintenance & service would be a
determining factor of the market.
The
major players identified across the value chain of sugar derived
surfactants market include Clariant, Procter and Gamble, Stepan
Company, Church and Dwight Co., Inc., Solvay, Lonza, Unilever,
Cargill, Incorporated, Kao Corporation and others.
