Polymer ingredients for personal care market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period. Consumers are increasingly seeking out personal care products that are gentle, non-irritating, and environmentally friendly, and polymers help to meet these demands. Conditioning polymers deposit, adhere, and absorb into the proteins of the skin and hair. They improve skin feel and hair manageability, reduce static and make the skin and hair softer and smoother. Thus, owing to the rising demand for such polymers have pushed market players to develop and introduce variety of polymers to fulfil unmet requirements. For instance, in December 2021, Solvay introduced two additional thickening and conditioning polymers for personal care. The two new ingredients, Jaguar® NAT SGI for thickening and Jaguar® Excel for conditioning. The major applications of the polymers include shampoos, hair treatments, hair conditioners, styling gels, body washes, and powder-to-liquid cleansers. 

Segmental Outlook 

The global polymer ingredients for personal care market is segmented based on the type, ingredient, and application. Based on the type, the market is sub-segmented into natural polymers and synthetic polymers. Based on the ingredient, the market is sub-segmented surfactants, conditioning polymers, emulsifying polymers, rheology modifiers, and others including film-formers, modifiers, and protective barriers. Further, based on application, the market is sub-segmented into hair care, skin care, color cosmetics, sun care, oral hygiene, and others which covers sanitizer, soap, and disinfectants.

The Surfactants Sub-Segment is Anticipated to Hold Prominent Share in the Global Polymer Ingredients for Personal Care Market

Among the ingredient, the surfactants sub-segment is expected to hold a prominent share of the global polymer ingredients for personal care market across the globe, owing to the growing use of surfactants in personal care products, and mouth washes. Surfactant used in personal care products from lotions, soap, and shampoo to makeup and deodorant and others. Personal care products often rely on surfactants that support make these products easy to apply and effective. Furthermore, the applications of surfactants in cosmetics such as cleansing, emulsification, solubilization, conditioning, and special effects. Surfactants have a number of other special effects that are useful to formulators. Moreover, some surfactants also have anti-microbial effects, thus, widely used as a preservative. 

Regional Outlook

The global polymer ingredients for personal care market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).  Among these, the Asia-Pacific regional market is expected to grow over the forecast period. Owing to huge customer group, rising use of skin care products, and other personal care products in this region.
