Liquid SLS is likely to gain popularity over the forecast period

Liquid SLS was valued at more than USD 120 million in 2020 and is expected to grow at a significant rate in the coming years. Owing to the lower concentration of active matter, liquid SLS is more desirable in various applications such as household detergents & cleaners, dishwashing liquids, and personal care products. Widespread applications including soaps, shampoos, shaving creams, light-duty liquid detergents, and other cleaning product formulations are constantly getting a considerable foothold in the marketplace. Furthermore, SLS liquid is increasingly preferred over dry SLS and will hold a prominent share in the overall sodium lauryl sulfate industry over the study timeframe.
 

Dishwashing liquid will showcase sustainable growth over the forecast period

Dishwashing detergent is likely to capture a significant market share at a CAGR of 3.8% by the end of 2027. Assorted flavors and aromas along with a high emulsifying ability to remove oil & dirt will drive the application segment. In addition, the growing popularity of dishwashing liquids among emerging economies will propel product demand.
 

North America will likely foster the overall industry by 2027

Strong consumer awareness of personal hygiene in the U.S. and Canada is a prime factor toward strong surfactants demand in household detergents & cleaners. Moreover, personal care products and industrial cleaners are the other two major applications of SLS in North America.
 

Factors including increasing multicultural populations, shifting preference for bio-degradable products, and direct-to-consumer online distribution models will proliferate the overall sodium lauryl sulfate market in the region. The region will exceed USD 170 million by 2027.
