Global Essential Oils Market Dynamics

Drivers

Rising Awareness and Use of Essential Oils as Herbal Medicine

The global essential oils market has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, largely driven by the rising use of essential oils in herbal medicines. Essential oils, derived from various plant sources, have been utilized for centuries due to their therapeutic properties and aromatic qualities. The increasing consumer preference for natural and organic products and the growing awareness of the benefits of herbal medicines have fuelled the demand for essential oils.

For instance,

  • In May 2021, according to a research article published in the Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare, 51.8% of people have good awareness regarding herbal medicine safety in South West Ethiopia

Consumers are increasingly seeking natural and organic alternatives to conventional medicines and treatments. Essential oils, derived from plants through distillation or cold-pressing methods, are considered natural and eco-friendly. They are free from synthetic chemicals and artificial additives, making them a popular choice for health-conscious individuals.

Essential oils possess a wide range of therapeutic properties, including antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. These properties make them valuable in treating and preventing various health conditions. Herbal medicines, which rely on the healing properties of plants, often incorporate essential oils as key ingredients to enhance their efficacy.

The therapeutic benefits of essential oils have gained recognition among healthcare professionals and consumers, leading to their growing use in herbal medicines. In addition, there is a growing awareness and acceptance of herbal medicines as an alternative or complementary approach to conventional healthcare. Herbal medicines have a long history of traditional use in different cultures and are often perceived as safer and more holistic than synthetic drugs. Essential oils, being derived from plants, align with the principles of herbal medicine. The increasing knowledge and acceptance of herbal medicines have contributed to the rising use of essential oils in this sector. Thus, the development of the application segments and increasing demand for essential oils is anticipated to drive market growth.

Rising Awareness Regarding Health Benefits of Essential Oils

The market has been experiencing substantial growth, primarily due to the rising awareness regarding the health benefits of essential oils. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in consumer awareness and understanding of the potential health benefits offered by essential oils.

Consumers around the world are increasingly adopting a natural and holistic approach to wellness. Essential oils derived from plants align with this trend and are viewed as a natural alternative to synthetic products. The growing interest in holistic wellness has propelled the demand for essential oils, as they are perceived as beneficial for physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

For instance,

  • In November 2022, according to an article by WebMD, stress and anxiety can be managed using essential oils. For instance, investigators discovered that inhaling 2.5, 5, or 10 droplets of orange oil reduced anxiety in male volunteers

Consumers are incorporating essential oils into their daily routines as consumers become more knowledgeable about the specific health benefits offered by different oils. This increasing awareness of the therapeutic properties of essential oils has had a positive impact on the growth of the global essential oils market. In addition, the availability of information through various channels, including online resources, social media, and health and wellness publications, has played a crucial role in educating consumers about the health benefits of essential oils. Consumers now have access to detailed information about the specific uses, applications, and precautions associated with different essential oils. The dissemination of knowledge has empowered consumers to make informed decisions regarding their health, leading to higher adoption of essential oils and subsequently driving market growth.

Restraints

Limited Availability of Raw Materials

The lack of availability of raw materials can be caused due to climatic conditions. In unfavorable climatic conditions, it is difficult for farmers to cultivate and grow plants such as herbs, spices, mint, citrus fruits, and others, thus less available raw materials is expected to restraint the market growth.

The fluctuating production of these plants has resulted in the volatile supply of these plants in the form of seeds, roots, leaves, and others. The volatile supply of raw materials also drives the prices of the end product, these essential oils. The limited raw material availability is expected to hamper the market's overall value chain, a key restraining factor of the market.

Thus, the lack of raw material availability may cause the switching of consumers to other products and can also affect the supply chain.

The outcomes from limited materials availability are:

  • Technological: Supply chain stakeholders may redesign their products by using substitute materials
  • Geographic: The upstream supply chain may reconfigure to tap into new sources
  • Operational: Downstream firms may alter inventory practices or work to recover alternative materials streams

HIGH PRODUCTION COST FOR ESSENTIAL OILS

The entire production process of essential oil includes the procurement of raw materials from farmers, then processing with one of the extraction processes out of cold-pressed, enzymatic extraction, and others, followed by the packaging and supplying of essential oils.

Production cost depends on the availability of materials such as seeds, fertilizer, water, production equipment, and the weather. Thus, the lack of any of them interrupts production and increases the production cost.

The other factors are:

  • Price rise
  • Place and right of exchange

In the whole process of production, the cost factor is considered to be the most important, which not only includes the price of raw materials but is also determined by costs of labor, capital, technology, and others. The particular inputs and how these factors are combined to generate production are expressed in the production cost.

Opportunities

Rising Research & Development and Innovative Technologies

One of the key opportunities for the growth of the global essential oil market lies in the rising R&D activities in essential oil manufacturing. As manufacturers and researchers invest in improving extraction techniques, quality control processes, and expanding the application areas of essential oils, new opportunities are created to meet evolving consumer needs. R&D efforts in essential oil manufacturing focus on optimizing extraction processes and techniques. This includes developing innovative extraction methods, such as supercritical fluid extraction and ultrasound-assisted extraction, to improve efficiency and yield. Advanced technologies and equipment are being explored to enhance the quality, purity, and aroma profiles of essential oils. By refining extraction processes, manufacturers can achieve higher productivity, reduce production costs, and improve overall product quality.

For instance,

  • In September 2022, according to India Science, Technology & Innovation, CSIR (Council of Scientific and Industrial Research)-NEIST (North East Institute of Science and Technology) has worked hard to build distillation plants that are appropriate for the North Eastern region's environment. Steam distillation is used to extract essential oils from oil-bearing leaves, grass, and other plants. Essential oils such as citronella, lemongrass, patchouli, geranium, and palmarosa will play a significant part in export marketing

In addition, R&D in essential oil manufacturing plays a crucial role in establishing quality control measures and standardization. Through scientific research, analytical methods, and testing protocols, manufacturers are working towards ensuring consistent quality, authenticity, and safety of essential oils. This includes developing robust quality control procedures to detect adulteration, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards, and implementing traceability systems.

Challenges

Rising Allergies from Essential Oils due to Lack of Consumer Awareness

The global essential oils market is facing a challenge due to the rising number of allergies associated with their use. These allergies are often a result of consumers' lack of awareness regarding the potential risks and proper usage of essential oils. One of the primary challenges contributing to the rising allergies to essential oils is the lack of consumer awareness. Many people are unaware of the potential risks associated with essential oil usage, including allergic reactions, skin sensitization, and respiratory issues. Consumers often assume that natural products are inherently safe, leading to improper and uninformed usage.

Essential oils contain a complex mixture of chemical compounds that can trigger sensitization and allergic reactions in susceptible individuals. Common allergens found in essential oils include limonene, linalool, eugenol, and geraniol. Prolonged or excessive exposure to these compounds can lead to sensitization, where the immune system develops an adverse response upon subsequent exposure.

For instance,

  • According to HealthyWA, undiluted essential oils can irritate or burn delicate skin or the nose. Susceptible individuals may also experience an allergic response and a skin rash
  • Tisserand Institute, in an article, listed the harmful effects of essential oils as skin reactions are the most common types of adverse reaction to essential oils, and they include: irritation (irritant contact dermatitis), allergic contact dermatitis (delayed hypersensitivity), and contact urticaria (immediate hypersensitivity)

The rising incidence of allergies linked to essential oils poses a significant challenge to the growth of the market. As more consumers experience adverse reactions, the demand for these products may decrease, leading to a decline in sales and market expansion.

Recent Developments

  • In August 2020, Young Living Essential Oils launched new products in the happy, healthy home category, including Cassia oil, Ecuadorian oregano oil, one heart essential oil
  • In October 2020, Neptune Wellness Solutions launched a brand called Forest Remedies with a collection of products developed in collaboration with IFF, which launched six essential oils lemon, sweet orange, bergamot, peppermint, eucalyptus, and tea tree oil
