Biosurfactants Market
REPORT DESCRIPTION
Biosurfactants Market - Global Scenario, Raw Material and Consumption Trends, Industry Analysis,
Size, Share and Forecasts 2011 - 2018
The global biosurfactants market is dominated by players such as BASF-Cognis, Ecover, Saraya, Urumqi
Unite, and MG Intobio. According to Transparency Market Research, about 65% of the significantly
consolidated global biosurfactants market was accounted for by the top three players in the market in 2011.
The prime movement observed in the global biosurfactants market are the efforts made by both biosurfactants
manufacturers and producers of the base crops to attempt complete integration of the industry chain. This
involves efforts from crop producers to achieve forward integration, adding biosurfactant manufacturing
capacities, while existing biosurfactants manufacturers such as BASF-Cognis are looking to acquire crop
plantations.
The total volume of the global biosurfactants market is estimated to reach 476,512.2 tons by the end of 2018,
with the market exhibiting a steady 3.90% CAGR from 2013 to 2018.

Household Detergents to Remain Leading Application of Biosurfactants
By application, the global biosurfactants market is segmented into household detergents, industrial and
institutional cleaners, agriculture chemicals, personal care, food processing, textiles, oilfield chemicals, and
others. The segment of household detergents was the leading contributor to the global market in 2011, with a
45% share. The dominance of the household detergents segment is likely to continue unabated through the
forecast period, and the segment is expected to account for 46% of the global biosurfactants market by the end
of 2018. Personal care is another leading application of biosurfactants and is expected to account for 11% of
the market by 2018.

Biosurfactants Market
Among the key regional markets for biosurfactants, Europe is the leading contributor to the market. The
supportive stance of the EU towards environmental protection measures has been vital for the Europe
biosurfactants market, as grants and tax incentives have helped biosurfactants replace conventionally used
surfactants in several applications. The total volume of the Europe biosurfactants market is expected to reach
234,440 tons by the end of 2016 and further rise to 254,219.3 tons by the end of 2018. This represents a share
of more than 50% in the global biosurfactants market.
Environmental Regulations, Fluctuating Crude Oil Prices Drive Demand for Biosurfactants
One of the key drivers for the global biosurfactants market is the increasing awareness about the importance of
protecting the environment and the adverse effects on the same of conventional petroleum-based surfactants.
Petroleum-based surfactants are nonbiodegradable and can also be toxic to several plant and animal species.
As a result, the regulatory framework in several developed countries now reflects the respective government’s
support to environmental protection and thus supports the use of biosurfactants, leading to steady growth in
the demand from the global biosurfactants market.
The unstable prices of crude oil, particularly following the drastic fall in late 2014, are another key driver for the
biosurfactants market, as they have made the manufacture of biosurfactants a more stable and reliable
endeavor than that of conventional surfactants. The ongoing fluctuations in the global oil and gas industry are
thus likely to remain an influential driver for the global biosurfactants market in the coming years.

Shortage of Feedstock Constricts Biosurfactants Industry
Despite its seemingly strong position, the global biosurfactants market is hamstrung by the low availability of
feedstock, as many of the crops used to produce biosurfactants are also used in the manufacture of biofuels
and as food. The lack of sufficient feedstock is likely to remain a key restraint on the market in the coming

years, though the efforts by biosurfactants manufacturers to acquire plantations could lead to a sustainable
supply of feedstock in the coming years.
