Market Trends

• Increasing demand for personal care products, rising urbanization, growing demand for sulfate-free products, easy availability of amphoteric surfactants-based products, demand for amphoteric surfactants from the end-user, and concerns over harmful effects of synthetic surfactants are the major factors responsible for boosting the global amphoteric surfactants market.
• Rising concerns over the harmful effects of synthetic surfactants are the primary factor responsible for driving the growth of the global amphoteric surfactants market.
• According to a research article published by the Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research, long-term use of amphoteric surfactants can cause skin irritation and lead to some degree of damage. They might enter the human body, damage the enzyme activity and thus disrupt the body’s normal physiological function.
• Owing to these factors, the concerns over the harmful effects of synthetic surfactants are anticipated to drive the growth of the global amphoteric surfactants market in the future. Moreover, according to the United Nations, 55% of the world’s population in 2018 resided in urban areas, and this is expected to reach 68% by 2050.
• Owing to the growth in the urbanization rate, the lifestyle of the people is expected to take a drastic shift towards preferring hygienic and safe personal care products. Thus, the rising urbanization rate is a significant factor contributing to the growth of the global amphoteric surfactants market.
• However, volatile raw material prices and stringent regulations imposed by the major nations of the world are the crucial factors restraining the global amphoteric surfactants market.
