Stearic Acid Market Growth & Trends:

The global stearic acid market size is estimated to reach USD 17,326.7 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.8% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing penetration of organic chemicals across personal care products such as shaving creams, shampoos and soaps is expected drive the global market. Benefits such as enhanced shelf life, versatility, excellent binding & thickening properties and stability, as a base for cosmetics are anticipated to strengthen its demand over the forecast period. Powerful surfactant and cleansing properties that assist removal of dirt and oil in the skin are slated to fuel its demand in soaps and detergents. Favorable regulations such as Nutritional Labeling and Education Act (NLEA) of 1990, permitting use of saturated fatty acids in food additives are also expected to impact its demand positively. Hazards related to toxicity coupled with volatile raw material prices are expected to remain a key challenge for market participants.

Soaps & detergents emerged as the largest application segment and accounted for 27.9% of the total market volume in 2024. Growing detergents industry in emerging economies may be attributed for high level of market penetration in the segment.

Stearic Acid Market Report Highlights:

  • The global stearic acid market size was valued at USD 12,320.9 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2025 to 2030.
  • Personal care is projected to witness the fastest growth of 6.4% over the forecast period. Growth of personal care industry in Asia Pacific and Latin America is expected to drive this segment over the forecast period. Surging organic personal care and cosmetic products demand is also estimated to fuel stearic acid demand.
  • Growing application scope across various niche segments including metal processing, candle manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals is also expected to drive global stearic acid industry growth in near future.
  • Asia Pacific stearic acid market held majority of the global market with a share of 41.8% in 2024.
