液體肥皂市場評估:依產品、應用、類別、香味、包裝、□□價格範圍、應用、分銷管道和地區劃分的機會和預測(2017-2031)Liquid Soap Market Assessment, By Product, By Usage, By Category, By Fragrance, By Packaging, By Price Range, By Application, By Distribution Channel, By Region, Opportunities and Forecast, 2017-2031F |
全球液體皂市場規模將從 2023 年的 353.4 億美元成長到 2031 年的 605.8 億美元,預計在 2024-2031 年期間複合年增長率為 7%。
消費者對個人衛生和健康重要性的認識不斷提高,對天然有機液體皂的需求不斷增加,消費者偏好溫和溫和的產品,公共廁所安裝智能液體皂液器,對天然有機液體皂的需求不斷增加等因素產品、無毒和不含化學物質的液體肥皂的推出正在推動全球液體肥皂市場的成長。此外,液體肥皂在年輕人中的使用日益增加,進一步促進了市場成長,因為它比傳統的肥皂更方便、更衛生。
升級回收和功能性成分的使用也推動了市場成長。例如,2023 年 11 月,Eurofragrance 推出了 Verdenix,這是一種含有升級成分的液體肥皂,具有防臭功效。這款創新產品採用升級回收材料,採用自然工藝製成,可作為增強劑,消除洗手液、沐浴露和洗碗精中的異味。
液體肥皂包裝的技術進步和智慧分配器的推出也為消費者增加了便利性並推動了市場成長。非接觸式手動分配器的推出正在促進液體肥皂市場的成長。
消費者對不含硫酸鹽和對羥基苯甲酸酯的液體皂的偏好日益增長:
人們越來越意識到這些化學物質對健康和環境的潛在影響,促使消費者更喜歡不含硫酸鹽和對羥基苯甲酸酯的液體肥皂。硫酸鹽,例如十二烷基硫酸鈉,是肥皂中最常見的界面活性劑,但它們可能對皮膚有害。雖然十二烷基硫酸鈉等界面活性劑可以改善起泡效果,但它們會對皮膚造成壓力,導致粗糙和乾燥,並加劇濕疹和皮膚炎等症狀。對羥基苯甲酸酯也是用於延長個人護理產品保質期的防腐劑。一些研究表明對羥基苯甲酸酯會破壞荷爾蒙,因為它們可以模仿體內的雌激素,增加癌症和其他生殖問題的風險。這促使消費者尋求不含這些刺激性化學物質並儘量減少皮膚反應的更溫和的替代品。
本報告調查了全球液體皂市場,提供了市場定義和概述、市場規模趨勢和預測、各個細分市場和地區的詳細分析、行業結構以及影響市場成長的因素分析、案例研究、競爭格局、主要公司的簡介等等。
Global liquid soap market is projected to witness a CAGR of 7% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 35.34 billion in 2023 to USD 60.58 billion in 2031. Factors such as growing awareness of the importance of personal hygiene and health among consumers, rising demand for natural and organic liquid soaps, consumers' preference for mild and gentle products, installation of smart liquid soap dispensers in public restrooms, increasing demand for natural and organic products, and introduction of toxic free and chemical free liquid soaps are driving the global liquid soap market growth. Also, the rising usage of liquid soaps among youngsters due to convenience and hygiene over traditional bar soaps is further augmenting the market growth.
The use of upcycled and functional ingredients in liquid soaps is driving the market's growth. For instance, in November 2023, Eurofragrance launched Verdenix, an upcycled ingredient used in liquid soap to offer malodour counteraction benefits. The innovation, made from upcycled material through a natural process, acts as a booster in hand and body wash applications, as well as in dishwashing liquid products, to eliminate the foul smell.
Technological advancements in the packaging of liquid soaps and the introduction of smart dispenser units are driving the growth of the liquid soap market due to an increase in the convenience of consumers. The introduction of technologically advanced touch-free hand dispensers has heightened the growth of the liquid soap market. These dispensers eliminate manual pumping or washing hands with bar soap, easing the usage, encouraging frequent handwashing, and driving market growth. Moreover, liquid soaps further augment the market growth due to touchless usage.
Consumers' Rising Preference for Sulphates and Paraben-Free Liquid Soaps to Gain Momentum
Awareness about these chemicals' potential health and environmental impacts drives consumers towards a preference for sulfate and paraben-free liquid soaps. Sulfates, such as sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium laurate sulfate, are probably the most common surfactants in soaps that harm the skin. They help create lather, but as they're harsh on the skin and can lead to skin irritation, dryness, and worsen conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. Parabens, on the other hand, are preservatives used to extend the shelf life of personal care products. Some studies point to their potential role in hormonal disruptions, as parabens can mimic estrogen in the body and may increase the risk of breast cancer and other reproductive disorders. Consequently, consumers are increasingly seeking milder alternatives which are free from these harsh chemicals, minimizing the skin reactions.
Consumers' preference for a greater number of products which fit into a more natural, environmentally friendly lifestyle is on the rise. Sulfate and paraben free liquid soaps are often positioned as being more natural and eco-friendlier.
For instance, in July 2023, Bath & Body Works, Inc. launched its latest reformulated hand soap collection. The collection has been manufactured without parabens, sulphates, and dyes, containing natural essential oils, Vitamin E, aloe, and shea extract.
Sustainable Packaging to Gain Momentum
Sustainable packaging in the liquid soap markets, such as biodegradable plastics, recycled materials, and refills, appeals to eco-conscious consumers, driving the market growth. Refill packs are becoming increasingly popular, where customers can buy soap in bulk and refill their used bottles. It reduces consumption of single-use plastics, promoting a circular economy. Manufacturers are increasingly offering fashionable, long-term dispensers made of glass or high-quality plastics which are reusable to attract eco-conscious consumers. Brands offering sustainable packaging gain a competitive advantage in terms of goodwill and customer loyalty.
Different packaging materials, such as aluminum, PET plastic, and cartoons, are being used for liquid soaps to contribute to growing environmental concerns and appeal to eco-conscious consumers. Recycled materials, such as post-consumer recycled plastics and paper-based packaging, lower dependence on virgin materials and reduce the overall carbon footprint.
In March 2024, Grove Collaborative Holdings, Inc. launched Grove Co., which rebranded with a ready-to-use range of daily home essentials in beautifully sustainable aluminum packaging. The aluminum packaging introduced for liquid dish soap, hand liquid soap, and laundry detergent liquid is recyclable.
In July 2023, Dr. Bronner's launched a new soap refill carton packaging for its liquid soap, Pure-Castile. Using these sustainable refill packs, consumers will be able to minimize their plastic usage by 82% as compared to the post-consumer recycled plastic bottles.
Dispenser to Dominate Global Liquid Market Share
Dispenser packaging dominates the liquid soap market, offering convenience, hygiene, and growing consumers' preferences. A dispenser, in the form of a pump bottle, offers ease of use; without needing to touch the container, which maintains hygiene. It is important when different users use the same soap, such as in public restrooms and hospitals. Dispenser packaging is versatile enough to accommodate different liquid soap formulations that include moisturizing, antibacterial, and scented varieties to suit a range of consumer needs, hence, owing to their popularity.
The controlled dispensing mechanism minimizes waste by using the right amount of soap per application as compared to a tube and being cost-effective and eco-friendly. Moreover, the dispenser packaging is sustainable as it is mostly designed for refills, which helps remove the need for continuous purchase of new bottles. For instance, in July 2023, Bath and Body Works introduced a hand soap collection which features a dispenser bottle with recycled plastic. These dispenser bottles are made with 50% recycled plastic. The company introduced their hand soap refills which can be refilled in an empty hand soap dispenser bottle.
Asia-Pacific to Dominate the Global Liquid Soap Market Share
Asia-Pacific consists of the most highly populated countries in the world, including China and India. The large and growing population in the region forms a tremendous market for hygiene and personal care products, such as liquid soap. According to the United States Census Bureau, in 2024, China's population was 1.412 billion, while India's was 1.417 billion.
Furthermore, economic development across most Asian countries has made most people in the region be with a higher disposable income. The improved level of disposable income increases the chances of people being able to afford and use a wide range of personal care products, including liquid soap. Further, lifestyle changes in Asia-Pacific become fast, with a fast move to convenient and easy-to-use products. Liquid soap, with its user-friendly packaging and dispensing systems, would fall right into these changing preferences. Moreover, the increasing awareness of the importance of health and hygiene in the region is further augmenting the market growth.
