Global Biosurfactants Market Research Report - Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 - 2021

Biosurfactants (BS) are surface-active compounds produced from microbial cell surfaces or excreted extracellularly. The surface tension in biosurfactants is reduced through hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties. Vegetable oils, animal fats, sucrose and glucose are the basic raw materials used in the production of biosurfactants. They perform major functions like emulsifying agents, detergents, and dispersants. Hence, biosurfactants are used the most for foaming, wetting, and emulsifying. Ecofriendliness, less toxicity, moisturizer, low irritancy and biodegradability are the properties that promote the growth of biosurfactants.
 
Products segment the global biosurfactants market by rhamnolipids, sophorolipids, methyl ester sulfonates (MES), alkyl polyglucosides (APG), sorbitan esters, sucrose esters, fatty acid n-methylglucimides, methyl glucoside esters, anionic APG derivatives, alkyl polypentosides (APP) and other biosurfactants. Industries such as paints, detergent, cosmetics, food and pharmaceutical boost the enlargement of the biosurfactants products market. Biosurfactants market report segment applications as household, detergents, personal care, industrial and institutional cleaners, food processing, oilfield chemicals, agricultural chemicals, textiles and others.
 
Consumer awareness on biocompatible and low toxic products and increasing demand for biobased products is driving the growth of the global biosurfactants market. In addition, intensifying biobased personal care market is responsible for biosurfactants market growth. This opens for potential opportunities for the manufacturers to grab the unconventional market and utilize industrial and agricultural wastes for production. Competitive costing of synthetic surfactants is the major constraint to the growth of biosurfactants.
 
Europe followed by North America is the major consumer market for biosurfactants. Stringent regulations and health hazards awareness allied with synthetic products are the driving growth in Europe. Asia Pacific is the fastest growing geography in the biosurfactants market. Huge demand and economic growth in China and India are supporting Asia Pacific to grow rapidly.
 
BASF Cognis, Ecover, Saraya, Urumqi Unite Bio-Technology, Dow Chemical Company, MG Intobio, Air Products and Chemicals, Huntsman, Solvay-Rhodia, Stepan, and Wako are the major companies manufacturing biosurfactants. Merger and acquisitions is the major strategy opted by the manufacturers in this augmenting market.
