Fragrance and delivery-technology specialist companies in the detergents market supply chain are collaborating to launch novel home care products induced with fragrance. Since detergents are a necessity in all domestic and commercial applications, manufacturers are innovating in the keratin polymer technology to develop new personal care products.

Encapsulation Enables Use of Advanced Bleach Ingredients in Liquid Detergents

The encapsulation method is colonizing the laundry detergents sector. Companies are creating microcapsules that deploy fragrance and other molecules in fabrics. Novel liquid detergents are being increasingly used by end users as a substitute to bleach. However, certain emerging players still use conventional bleaches such as sodium hypochlorite to manufacture liquid detergents. These bleaches lead to unwanted reactions with other ingredients and are not desired by end users. Hence, manufacturers are becoming increasingly conscious about these shortcomings and are streamlining their production to develop liquid detergents using the encapsulation technique.

Analysts’ Viewpoint

The detergents market is moderately consolidated with major players accounting to ~40-45% of the total market share. International conferences help product makers and raw material suppliers to procure agreements over prices, logistics, and other details of industrial commerce. Ultraconcentrated pump detergents and single-dose detergents serve convenience quotient of end users. However, chemical laundry detergents impact the environment and lead to increased inorganic waste. Hence, manufacturers should build their credibility credentials by innovating in enzyme-based detergents that replace harmful ingredients of chemical detergents. Companies should increase production capabilities in F&B and animal hygiene applications, as both segments are projected for high growth in the coming years.
