The global Sugar-Based Surfactants Market is expected to reach USD 9.18 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.7% from 2022 to 2030, as per the new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth is majorly driven by rising consumer awareness regarding personal hygiene, thus, leading to a rise in the demand for home care and personal care products worldwide. Sugar-based surfactants are naturally derived and have no ill effect on the environment. Moreover, they are considered alternatives to synthetic surfactants, which have an adverse effect on the environment and humans.

The alkyl polyglycoside (APG) type segment is expected to witness a significant rise in consumption levels across regions due to its extensive applications such as industrial, household cleaning products, and cosmetics. APG is considered to be safe for use on sensitive skin and thus extensively finds applications in the personal care industry worldwide. This, in turn, is expected to augment the market growth of APG in the coming years.

In homecare & personal care, sugar-derived surfactants are used in various personal care products such as body lotions, skin creams, body washes, shampoos, and sunscreens among others. This is attributed to their mild and non-irritating properties for the skin and eyes. They portray high efficiency in cleaning, washing, wetting, and foaming compounds.

The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness significant growth on the account of the rising consumption of household commodities such as soaps, detergents, and cleaners. This trend continued after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic on account of the increased consumer awareness related to personal hygiene. This is expected to boost the demand for sugar-based surfactants in the country.
