REPORT DESCRIPTION
Specialty Surfactants Market - Global Scenario, Raw Material and Consumption Trends, Industry
Analysis, Size, Share & Forecast 2011 - 2017
Rising demand from the consumer goods market for high-value products is stimulating the growth of the global
specialty surfactants market to a great extent. In 2011, the global market for specialty surfactants stood at
US$22.6 billion. Propelled by the ample availability of low-cost synthetic surfactants, the market is likely to
reach a value of US$29.2 billion by 2017.
Lack of awareness among people pertaining to bio-based surfactants and their benefits is another factor
fueling the global specialty surfactants market. However, the strict regulations associated with environmental
preservation, price instability of specialty surfactants, soaring demand for crude oil, and tough competition from
the market for vegetable oil surfactants is expected to hamper the development of the global specialty
surfactants market in the near future.

Anionic Specialty Surfactants: Leading Product Segment
The global specialty surfactants market is analyzed on three fronts: product type, application, and the regional
distribution of the global market. Based on product type, the market for anionic, nonionic, amphoteric, cationic,
and others specialty surfactants such as fluorosurfactants and silicone are the major segments of the global
specialty surfactants market. Anionic, cationic, and amphoteric specialty surfactants are extensively utilized in
several end-use industries.
The anionic specialty surfactants market dominates the global industry on account of the widespread utilization
of linear alkyl benzene sulfonate in the production of detergents. Additionally, the market for nonionic specialty
surfactants is likely to report healthy growth in the coming years.

Specialty Surfactants Market
Based on application, the global market for specialty surfactants is classified into the markets for home care,
personal care, industrial and institutional cleaners, food processing, agricultural chemicals, textiles, emulsion
polymerization, paints and coatings, and construction, among which the home care specialty surfactants
market is leading demand from the global specialty surfactants industry at present.
Asia Pacific: Leading Regional Market
North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World are the major regional markets for specialty
surfactants, wherein the market in Asia Pacific leads the global specialty surfactants market in terms of
consumption and North America follows it. Analysts expect that the market in Asia Pacific will maintain its
dominance in the coming years. The soaring demand for specialty surfactants in Asia Pacific is mainly due to
the expansion of the markets for household detergents and personal cleaning in this region. These industries
are the biggest consumers of specialty surfactants. By 2017, the market in Asia Pacific is expected to hold
around 34% of the overall specialty surfactants market in terms of revenue.
