Global aroma chemicals market was valued at USD 5.5 billion in 2019. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 5.8%) between 2020 and 2027. The market is expected to grow due to growing demand from both the food and beverage industries as well as fragrance. The market is expected to grow because of increased urbanization and consumer spending. Along with taste inedible products, the aroma plays a significant role in enhancing the flavor of processed foods and beverages. Natural aroma chemicals are growing due to increased demand for healthy and wellness foods and regulations banning the use of synthetic flavor. The market is driven by the suitability of natural flavor in wider applications, the additional health benefits of some natural flavors, as well as advanced technological innovations.
Pine trees, and petrochemicals are the basic raw materials for aroma chemicals. To maintain quality, key players in the market are often integrated throughout the value chain (from manufacturing to distribution). This allows key players to gain a competitive edge in terms of cost benefits and a higher profit margin.
Key players spend significant amounts on R&D to study improved processes and increase manufacturing costs in the fragrance industry. Market growth will be impeded by rising R&D costs.
In 2019, synthetic aroma chemicals made up 73.9% of the total revenue and will continue to do so over the forecast period. Synthetic aromas are seeing increased demand from the personal care and cosmetics industries, as well as the food and beverage industry. Because synthetic aroma chemicals can be stronger than natural chemicals, personal care formulators and cosmetics manufacturers still prefer them over artificial chemicals. Cosmetics manufacturers now have to rely on synthetic ingredients due to increased skin sensitivity and allergies.
Consumers consider natural aroma chemicals to be more sustainable, therapeutic, and greener. Natural aroma products are expected to increase in demand on a global scale as they raise awareness about healthy and sustainable living. However, the lack of raw materials and the high price of producing natural aroma chemicals will limit their growth over the forecast period.
In 2019, fragrance accounted for almost 69.0% of the revenue and is expected to continue its lead in the future. Because synthetic flavors are cheaper than natural flavorings, they are a major driver for flavor manufacturers. It is believed that the flavor market has great potential in emerging countries. The major drivers of the flavor market include growing disposable income, rising demand for beverages, processed foods, increased demand for exotic flavors, and increasing demand for different food applications.
Market growth is expected to be boosted by the growing popularity of authentic aromas within the food and hospitality industries in the next few years. Market growth is expected to be aided by rising demand for natural products that can be used in personal care. Product demand is expected to rise due to increasing public awareness about hygiene and health, as well as a growing preference to natural and organic ingredients.
Animal feed industries are awash in aroma chemicals. Animal feed products are often made with vanillin and cinnamaldehyde. Carvacrol and Thymol are also used in animal feed mixes due to their flavoring capabilities.
Terpenes & Terpenoids were the most prominent chemical segment, accounting for over 30% of all chemicals in 2019. Terpenes & Terpenoids have effective medical properties such as antiseptic, anticarcinogen, and antibiotic properties. The segment's growth is expected to be driven by the continued use of terpene in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical application.
Musk chemicals can be extracted both naturally and synthetically. Natural musk can be extracted from animals and plants. This includes roots, seeds, rump glands of musk deer, and muskrat cats. There are many uses for musk chemicals, including soap, detergent, cosmetics, personal care and food.
The market's top trends include the rising number of professionals and the growing middle class, as well as raising awareness. Over the forecast period, the rising popularity of fine fragrances and personal care products will drive demand for musk chemical. The forecast period will see new product innovations and increased popularity of cosmetic and perfume items, which are expected to increase the demand for musk chemical.
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in aroma chemicals, with a revenue share 29.6% in 2019. It is expected to continue dominating the market during the forecast period. In the near future, countries such as Japan, India, China and China are expected to experience positive growth. Aroma chemicals are also being sought out by developing countries like Japan, India, China and China because of their increased demand for flavor and fragrances. Different countries have different tastes and the market for flavors is different.
Asian fragrances and flavors are also becoming more popular in major regions like North America and Europe. China, India and Indonesia are some of the most prominent Asian food flavor markets. Many manufacturing companies are investing in R&D facilities in order to expand their businesses in the Asia Pacific region.
India is the Asia Pacific's largest emerging economy. India is expected to see a rise in demand for aroma chemicals due to the rising demand from manufacturers for soap, detergents, and other home care products. India's high consumer spending power is another reason for the market's growth.
Due to the growth in the food processing and consumer goods industries, the North American market is expected to remain stable. Trends, which favor mergers in the end use industries, predict that developed countries will grow. Market growth in developed countries is slower than that of the developing countries.
Due to the growth in the personal care and cosmetics markets, the U.S. accounted for the largest portion of the North American market's revenue in 2019. The country's disposable income is expected to increase, which will fuel the demand of cosmetics, personal-care products, food, and beverages. This will also trigger the need for aroma chemicals.
However, the U.S. government has some rigid regulations that can limit the market's growth over the forecast period. These include the consideration of contamination from aroma chemicals being produced.
The industry's most prominent manufacturers are well-established and have large production capabilities. These players are now focusing on expansion and acquisition strategies in order to increase their product range and meet growing end-use market demand. Global market opportunities are opening up to new market players. Multinationals are a formidable competition for companies looking to establish themselves on the global market. The benefits of products are becoming increasingly important to consumers, so producers have been forced to create high-quality, affordable, and sustainable products.
