U.S. Essential Oil Market Dynamics
Drivers
-
Increase in awareness related to the health benefits of essential oils
Essential oils are light-to-medium-coloured, clear liquids that are pourable at low temperatures. Nowadays, consumers are more conscious regarding their health; thus, they demand healthier products that give more nutritional value. Essential oils are also rich in vitamins, especially vitamin E (tocopherol and tocotrienol), and are rich in mineral content. The content of potassium, phosphorus, and copper is also found in these oils. Thus, consumers demand and prefer pharmaceuticals and supplementary diets made from essential oils due to the uncountable health benefits of essential oils. Due to this, manufacturers are also trying to launch new essential oil products to fulfil the demands of the consumers. This factor is expected to drive the growth of the U.S. essential oil market.
-
Rise in demand for essential oils from the food supplementary industry
Essential oil is widely used in the food supplementary industry as it is a great energy value. A significant proportion of the oil amaranth accounts for the importance of the body's polyunsaturated fatty acids. They are involved in synthesizing components of cell membranes, providing resistance to damaging effects, accelerating cholesterol metabolism in the liver, and normalizing the state of the walls of blood vessels. The phospholipids in essential oils regulate fat metabolism and form the structure of the nervous tissue, liver cells, and brain. In addition, the protective properties of cell membranes are formed, normal growth and reproduction of cells are ensured, and cholesterol is removed from the body. Thus, essential oils are used in food supplements in the form of capsules, tablets, pills, and liquids. The essential oil in capsules or any other form is called a dietary or food supplement.
Opportunities
- Shift towards aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is increasingly considered a popular therapy, with more spas opening in various areas, increasing consumer awareness of well-being, higher demand for natural products, and its benefits in psychological and physiological health. The use of essential oils in aromatherapy for personal care and therapeutic purposes offers tremendous growth potential. This type of alternative therapy utilizes various combinations of essential oils to get relief from various ailments like depression, indigestion, headache, insomnia, muscular pain, respiratory problems, and others. For example, Thyme essential oil is widely used in aromatherapy to help reduce fatigue, nervousness, and stress. The availability of a wide range of aroma oils is expected to boost the U.S. essential oil market. Due to this shift in the aromatherapy trend, demand for organic and certified 100% pure and natural essential oil is also increased. Thus, increasing awareness about aromatherapy and its possible health benefits influences customers. There has been a consistent demand for essential oil in the personal care and cosmetic sectors; thus, the demand for essential oil enables manufacturers to launch new products to expand further, which may promote market growth in the forecast period.
Restraints/Challenges
- Lack of 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.
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 U.S. essential oil 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
Thus, this lack of availability of raw materials enables the consumer to switch to substitutes which may restrain the market's growth.
- Low production volumes of essential oils
Low production volumes of essential oils are expected to affect the market growth for U.S. essential oil market. High transportation rates, increased variability in rainfall, and intensive summer drought, can be considered the main constraints to these crop productions.
Under such conditions, adopting sustainable agricultural practices and introducing new/ underutilized crops, able to diversify cropping systems and mitigate climate changes, can represent very promising strategies in addressing cropping system sustainability, crop improvement, and food security.
Extracting squalene from these various products, such as herbs, spices, and others, requires a long process such as distillation, drying, and oil packaging. However, due to distillation, the yield of essential oil can be less, which affects the production volumes of essential oil. In addition, less access to raw materials such as herbs, spices, and others also leads to low production volumes.
Thus, the low production volumes are expected to affect the market growth due to uncertainty in weather and the time-consuming extraction process, as well as the low content of oil after extraction. Moreover, it is expected to restrain the growth of U.S. essential oil market growth to some extent.
Post COVID-19 Impact on U.S. Essential Oil Market
Post the pandemic, the demand for essential oils has increased as there won't be any more restrictions on movement, so the supply of products would be easy. In addition, the growing trend of using essential oils for their therapeutic properties and natural ingredients may propel the market's growth.
The increased demand for essential oils enables manufacturers to launch innovative and multifunctional essential oils, which ultimately increases the demand for essential oils and has helped the market grow.
Moreover, the high demand for essential oils for food and beverages and personal care products will drive the market's growth. Furthermore, the increased demand for products that boost the immune system after the COVID-19 pandemic as consumers were more concerned about their health and wellness resulted in market growth. Additionally, consumers' interest in new flavors and enhanced fragrances is expected to fuel the growth of the U.S. essential oil market.
