Summary

US demand to rise 5.7% annually through 2012 Demand for cosmetic and toiletry chemicals in the US is forecast to rise 5.7 percent per year to $8.6 billion in 2012. Growth will be aided by several factors including favorable population (agerelated and ethnicity) and consumer (e.g., anti-aging focus and greater use of organic or natural products) trends. As a result of these factors, active and plantderived ingredients will benefit the most.

Growth in demand for active ingredients, such as enzymes, amino acids and peptides, will be propelled by continued gains in cosmeceutical skin care products and high value additives such as nanoscale ingredients. Natural products, such as botanical extracts, proteins, and natural fats and oils, are expected to achieve favorable growth opportunities, as their incorporation in various formulated products continues to increase. Traditional cosmetic and toiletry chemicals, such as refined petroleum products and commodity surfactants, will experience limited gains, primarily due to the popularity of water-based formulations in skin and hair care products, consumers seeking products containing natural ingredients, and a trend away from harsh chemicals. Chemical volume is projected to record gains of 3.3 percent annually through 2012.

Several market segments poised for rapid growth There are a handful of segments in the cosmetic and toiletry industry that are poised to achieve rapid growth through 2012, including organic and natural products, male grooming products, ethnic products, anti-aging products and products for 50+ individuals. Once a niche segment, only found for sale in health stores or on the Internet, organic and natural cosmetics and toiletries have hit mainstream America with a variety of products now found on the shelves of mass merchandisers. Increased concerns over individual health (i.e., potential cancer risks in humans associated with various chemicals traditionally used in the production of finished cosmetic and toiletry products), as well as concern for chemicals' unintended effects on the surrounding environment, is driving growth in the organic and natural cosmetic and toiletry segment. As such, requirements for naturally-derived and certified organic ingredients will increase through the forecast period. For men, products such as specialized facial cleansers and skin care items, higher value shaving products and hair care preparations will continue to emerge, providing opportunities for many ingredients, including moisturizing additives.

The growing Hispanic population in the US is prompting cosmetic and toiletry formulators to provide items specifically designed to meet their needs. Chemicals such as conditioning and moisturizing agents will likely benefit from growth in ethnic products. The country's obsession with youth will continue to drive introductions for anti-aging products using active ingredients designed to enhance a person's appearance by reducing wrinkles, preventing wrinkles, firming skin or lightening age spots. As more babyboomers move past the 50 year old mark, the emergence of hair care, cosmetics and skin care specifically formulated for gray hair and aging skin will emerge. Growth in this segment will bode well for active ingredients, delivery systems, conditioning agents and moisturizing agents.
