Two major types of surfactants are bio-based surfactants and synthetic based surfactants. One of the major drivers for bio-based surfactants are increased awareness among consumers towards ecofriendly products. Moreover, low cost of synthetic surfactants and easy availability is expected to trigger demand for surfactants. However, consistently fluctuating prices of key feedstock materials is a major concern for the manufacturers and is expected to limit the growth of surfactants. High cost of bio-based surfactant is also one of the factors expected to restrict the market growth of surfactant. The development and commercialization of cost effective bio-based surfactant is expected to open new growth window for the surfactant manufacturers. Apart from that expansion of application base of surfactants is also expected to provide new growth opportunities for the industry participants.
