Increasing Consumer Awareness to Bolster the Market of Alkyl Polyglucosides (APG) Biosurfactants

Consumer awareness has increased significantly in the past few years due to rapid climate change. This has created an emphasis on both sustainable development and the use of eco-friendly and biodegradable products. As alkyl polyglycosides are typically made by reacting fatty alcohol with sugar using acid as a catalyst, they provide no harm to the environment. With the advent of green radicalism and green consciousness, the market is expected to grow significantly. The cost-effectiveness and high efficiency of polyglucosides enable them to function as a perfect surfactant. Additionally, they prevent corrosion and oxidation of metals and are used as automobile and industry machinery detergents; trends such as these are crucial to the market growth.

Urbanisation and rising disposable income have led to the rise in demand for various skin care and home care products such as detergents, shampoo, shower gel, and fabric conditioners, among others. Moreover, the rising demand for high-quality and natural products is leading the market growth for both the cosmetic and homecare industries and further propelling the industry growth for polyglucosides biosurfactant. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has surged the demand for cleansers and surfactants around the globe. As sanitisation and hygiene become more prevalent, the demand for home care products is increasing significantly, further boosting the market growth for alkyl polyglucosides biosurfactants.
