Transparency Market Research in its new report titled, “Citral Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2017 – 2025,” provides key insights on the citral market. The new report anticipates that the rise in demand for perfumed consumer goods and increase in disposable income of individuals will drive the citral market during the forecast period i.e, 2017 – 2025.
IFRA recommends that any material used to impart perfume or flavor in products intended for human ingestion should include ingredients that are in compliance with respective regulations for foods and food flavorings in the countries of planned distribution. As per the report, the countries where these regulations do not exist, should consider the recommendations laid down in the Code of Practice of the International Organization of the Flavor Industry (IOFI). “Since this chemical is used in food products, citral producers need to keep a watch on the purity of the product. For example the U.S. EPA regulates citral as one of the synthetic flavoring substances and adjuvants that are generally recognized as safe for their intended use, within the Code of Federal Regulations Title 21 Act. The European Chemicals Agency also has citral under the harmonized classification and labelling (CLP00) as citral can cause skin irritation and may cause an allergic reaction on the skin,” says TMR analyst.
The TMR report has segregated the global citral market based on type and application. On the basis of type, the report has split the citral market into natural citral and synthetic citral. Citral obtained from natural sources is called natural citral, whereas citral producted chemically in laboratories is called synthetic citral. Natural citral is considerably expensive than synthetic citral. Synthetic citral is produced from isobutylene, to which formaldehyde is added to form isoprenol. Citral can also be produced from isoprene.
In terms of application, the citral market is split into fragrance, flavor, and synthesis of vitamin A and E. The fragrance segment can be further divided into cosmetics, detergents, perfumes, personal care products, and cleaners. The flavor segment can be further categorized into confectionery, beverages, etc. BASF SE had first synthesized vitamin A using a Reformatsky reaction between b-ionone 2 and a propargyl bromide. Ionone is prepared from citral.
On the basis of region, Asia Pacific dominated the global citral market in 2017 owing to demand for citral in cosmetics, detergents, perfumes, personal care products, and cleaners in the region. In terms of market share, Asia Pacific is anticipated to be followed by Europe, North America, and Middle East & Africa. In Asia Pacific, China is estimated to dominate the market as it’s leading the region in the production of perfumed products, where citral is mainly used. Major companies operating in the global citral market are profiled in this report to give a better competitive analysis and these include Symrise AG, BASF SE, Robertet Group, Takasago International Corporation, International Flavours Fragrances, Wujiang Ciyun Flavor And Fragrance Co.,Ltd. Berjé Inc., Indukern F&F.
