The growth in the forecast period is expected to result from a surge in demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products, a growing preference for plant-based ingredients, increasing interest in bio-based solvents, rising demand for premium skincare, and expanding applications of citrus oil in pharmaceuticals. Key trends during the forecast period include a shift towards clean-label products and transparency in sourcing, increased usage in functional beverages, the growing popularity of citrus oils in holistic wellness products, heightened demand for customized aromatherapy solutions, and innovations in multi-functional citrus oil products that combine skincare, fragrance, and health benefits.
The increasing utilization of citrus oils in food and beverages is expected to drive the growth of the citrus oil market in the future. The food and beverage sector encompasses all consumable products, both solid and liquid, prepared and served for human consumption. The rising demand in this sector can be attributed to several factors, including population growth, evolving lifestyles, health awareness, and sustainability trends. Citrus oils enhance the flavor and aroma of food and beverages, adding a refreshing zest, and they also offer potential health benefits such as antioxidants and digestive support, making them popular in health-conscious products. For instance, in February 2023, Monster Beverage Corporation, a US-based company known for its energy drinks, reported a 2.6% increase in net sales for its monster energy drinks, rising to $1.39 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, up from $1.35 billion in the same quarter of 2021. Therefore, the expanding use of citrus oils in food and beverages is driving the growth of the citrus oil market.
Companies in the citrus oil market are concentrating on developing innovative products, such as antimicrobial citrus oils, to meet consumer demand for natural and sustainable alternatives. Antimicrobial citrus oils can inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and viruses and are commonly used in food preservation, personal care, and cleaning products due to their natural antimicrobial properties, appealing scents, and health benefits. For example, in February 2022, Down Under Enterprises Pty. Ltd., an Australia-based producer of native Australian essential oils, launched Organic Lemon Myrtle Oil. This oil is certified to Organic NOP (USDA) and BioCE standards and is derived from Backhousia citriodora. Known for its high phenolic compound content, this essential oil is ideal for applications in skincare, hair care, and home care. It stands out as the highest natural source of citral, with a recommended safe usage concentration of 1%. Its antimicrobial properties allow it to serve as both a preservative and an active ingredient in personal care products while also providing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The oil features a sweet citrus top note that transitions into a green, floral heart, concluding with a complex base note reminiscent of citronella.
In April 2024, Berje Inc., a US-based manufacturer and supplier of flavor and fragrance ingredients, acquired Global Citrus International and Acelim del Peru for an undisclosed amount.
