List of Tables

The Asia Pacific cosmetic polymer ingredients market was valued at approximately USD 3.1 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow to around USD 4.6 billion by 2031, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1% during the forecast period.

Strategic Developments by Key Players

Major players in the cosmetic polymer ingredients sector are actively engaging in strategic initiatives, including product innovation, research and development, mergers and acquisitions, and business expansions. These efforts aim to broaden their customer base and strengthen their market presence. For instance, in June 2023, Solvay SA introduced Naternal, a line of bio-based biodegradable polymers designed for environmentally friendly hair and skin care products. Additionally, in October 2023, BASF SE announced plans to invest in a new facility in Dusseldorf for the production of cosmetic ingredients, specifically emollients for skin care and sun protection products, with operations expected to start by 2025. Emollients are essential cosmetic polymers that help retain skin moisture and enhance product texture. In March 2024, SNF expanded its portfolio with NATURSOL EMI Lite, a new rheology modifier that features a naturality index of 78%, combining a lightweight texture with stabilizing properties, catering to the growing demand for sustainable beauty solutions. Furthermore, in April 2024, Clariant AG acquired Lucas Meyer Cosmetics, a premium ingredient supplier in the cosmetics sector, for an enterprise value of USD 810 million. Such strategic moves by leading companies are anticipated to create significant opportunities in the cosmetic polymer ingredients market throughout the forecast period.
