Market Dynamics

Drivers

The cosmetics and personal care sector is one of the emerging sectors across the globe where triclosan is extensively used to formulate various skincare and body care products such as soap, lotions, face creams, gels, and moisturizers as an antibacterial, antifungal, and preservative agent. Therefore, the growing demand from the cosmetics and personal care industry has increased the potential sales of triclosan in the market.

Restraints

However, some standards are set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the use of triclosan. As a result, habitual consumption of triclosan may cause allergic effects, skin irritation, asthma, skin burns, and others. In addition, stringent government rules and regulations on using triclosan in consumer products in the U.S. and Europe have hampered overall market growth. For instance, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has stated that manufacturers must demonstrate that their consumer products containing triclosan are safe. These factors are restraining the overall growth of the triclosan market.

 COVID-19 Impact.

The triclosan market has had little impact due to the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, owing to the rise in cases of COVID-19, implementation of emergency protocols, and shutdown of various operations and facilities have been observed during 2020.

Due to the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, the manufacturer has faced challenges in terms of operation and supply chain due to government restrictions during the lockdown.  

However, the triclosan market faced several difficulties with material supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages, in 2020. 

Furthermore, to control the surge of novel coronavirus cases, there is a drastic shift of investments from other sectors toward the cosmetics sector. Also, several triclosan-based product manufacturing companies have shut down or shrunk their operations due to the risk of infection among the workforce. 

This has temporarily hampered the demand and supply chain of the triclosan market. In addition, the falling income of customers has led contraction in demand for glasses, refractory materials, and others during the COVID-19 period.  

In the first quarter of 2021, the market for triclosan experienced an increase in the demand for triclosan chemicals in pharmaceutical, healthcare, and other end-use industries worldwide compared to 2020.
