Home>Industry Reports>Global Chloroxylenol Market Assessment, Opportunities and Forecast, 2017-2031F
Global chloroxylenol market is projected to witness a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 151.3 million in 2023 to USD 199.23 million in 2031F. The market expansion is supported by increasing usage of personal care products and cosmetics, rising pharmaceutical applications, and others.
The increasing utilization of personal care products and cosmetics is boosting the global chloroxylenol market growth. The rising demand for personal care products and cosmetics can be attributed to increasing emphasis on physical appearance and growing investments by the leading cosmetic manufacturers towards marketing and promotional activities. The increasing influence of social media content creators is further encouraging consumers to invest in cosmetics and personal care products, supporting the market expansion as various personal care products and cosmetics use chloroxylenol. According to Cosmetics Europe- The Personal Care Association, in 2022, the European cosmetics market was valued at USD 95 billion (€88 billion) at Retail Sales Price (RSP). The rapid expansion of the cosmetic and personal care industry is bolstering the requirement for chloroxylenol as it is used as an anti-microbial agent in various cosmetic and personal care products.
The growing utilization of chloroxylenol in healthcare applications is another major driver increasing the global chloroxylenol market size. Due to its ability to act as an antimicrobial preservative, chloroxylenol is used in low concentrations as a pharmaceutical excipient in topical formulations, including ointments and creams. It is one of the common constituents of different proprietary disinfectants used for wound and skin disinfection. Regarding therapeutic applications, chloroxylenol has been investigated for treating infected root canals and acne vulgaris.
Chloroxylenol acts as an antimicrobial and treats abrasions, stings, bites, and cuts. It is employed as an antiseptic cleaner for hands. It is less active against Gram-negative bacteria and staphylococci and effective against Gram-positive bacteria. It is inactive against the Pseudomonas species. The activity against Gram-negative bacteria can be increased by adding a chelating agent, edetic acid. Chloroxylenol’s boiling point is 246°C, and the melting point is 115.5°C. It is soluble in ether, fixed oils, terpenes, very slightly soluble in water, and freely soluble in ethanol. It also easily dissolves in alkali hydroxide solutions.
Chloroxylenol, with a molecular weight of 156.61 g/mol and a molecular formula of C8H9ClO, is used as a disinfectant and antiseptic agent for disinfecting surgical instruments and skin. For instance, as per the Lancet Commission on Global Surgery, in India, 3,646 surgeries are required in a year per 100,000 people. Of these, 13% require ophthalmological surgeries, 20% will be obstetrics and gynecological surgeries, and 26% will be general surgical procedures. Thus, the rising requirement for different surgical procedures for treating various chronic conditions is supplementing the market expansion by bolstering the product requirement.
Chloroxylenol is used in different pharmaceutical settings and hospitals as a disinfectant. It can be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for determining the analyte in different pharmaceutical formulations with the help of fluorogenic derivatization before a high-performance liquid chromatography separation. Chloroxylenol is a broad spectrum, efficient, low-toxicity antibacterial with good chemical stability and a solubility of 0.03% in water. It is known to be bactericidal to a wide range of bacteria in low concentrations. The antimicrobial effect of the chemical compound occurs due to the disruption of cell membrane potentials. Thus, due to the above-mentioned benefits, the adoption of chloroxylenol in the pharmaceutical sector is increasing, thereby augmenting the global chloroxylenol market growth.
For instance, according to the recent data published by the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA), the pharmaceutical industry at the global level was valued at USD 1,256.8 billion in 2021 and reached USD 1,287.7 billion in 2022. In 2022, the global pharmaceutical industry registered a year-on-year growth rate of 2.5%. Moreover, according to the recent statistics published by IQVIA Inc., a biopharmaceutical company that has a presence across prominent regions such as North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe, the medicines sector at the global level will reach USD 1.9 trillion by 2027. Henceforth, the rapid expansion of the pharmaceutical sector is boosting the demand for chloroxylenol, thereby fostering market growth.
The market is expected to witness significant growth in Asia-Pacific over the forecast period. The rapid expansion of the population in the region, increasing awareness about the necessity of maintaining cleanliness and hygiene, and rising requirement by the hospitals and clinics in the region are expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to the Asia Pacific chloroxylenol market. The rising requirement for caesarean sections in the region is another major factor supporting the market expansion as the product lowers the risk of surgical site infections. Due to the rising requirement for caesarean sections in different parts of the region, the demand for chloroxylenol is increasing significantly in the Asia-Pacific over the forecast period. For instance, as per the estimates of the World Health Organization (WHO) over the past few years a surge in caesarean section rate was witnessed. It is estimated that if the trend continues, the highest rates are expected to be in Eastern Asian Countries (63%), North Africa (48%), the Caribbean and the Latin America (54%), Australia and New Zealand (45%), Southern Europe (47%), and West Asia (50%).
The rising demand for liquid formulation can be attributed to their easy-to-use nature. The liquid formulation finds various applications in disinfectants, personal care products, and cleaners. It is used for antiseptic skin cleansing and gentle cleansing of wounds and disinfecting surgical instruments in hospitals. It acts as an effective antiseptic solution that aids in protecting against various germs and kills bacteria. Chloroxylenol has applications in dermatology surgery due to the ability of broad-spectrum antiseptics to reduce the risk of surgical site infections. Chloroxylenol is used for various procedures that enter the dermis or deeper. It is a halophenol that inactivates cellular enzymes and disrupts the microbial cell wall. Liquid formulations aid in disinfecting surface areas which are difficult to access. Thus, the various technical properties associated with liquid chloroxylenol are driving the market's growth.
Increasing utilization of hair care products due to rising concerns about physical appearance are expected to support the segment expansion. The chemical is used against a wide range of viruses, bacteria, and fungi. The product is effective against scalp issues in various demographics for individuals with textured hair. Due to different factors such as utilization of harsh hair products, dryness, and regular use of harmful styling techniques, these individuals become more susceptible to various scalp conditions including folliculitis, dandruff, and seborrheic dermatitis. Chloroxylenol has proven to be effective against such scalp conditions by acting against the causative fungi and bacteria. In a study conducted on African American subjects, shampoos that contained chloroxylenol effectively treated seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff as compared to the placebo shampoo. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has assessed the safety of chloroxylenol and deemed it safe for usage as a cosmetic ingredient.
Future Market Scenario (2024 – 2031F)
· The rapid expansion of the pharmaceutical sector in the coming years will bolster the requirement for chloroxylenol as a pharmaceutical reference, disinfectant, and excipient, among other things.
· The growing prevalence of various chronic health conditions, such as cancer, will support the market expansion as the treatment often involves surgeries, propelling the requirement for chloroxylenol for disinfecting surgical instruments. It is estimated that breast cancer accounts for approximately 12.5% of all cancer cases diagnosed across the globe in a year. In 2023, 297,790 cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed in the United States.
· Due to the increasing incidences of skin infection in various regions across the globe, the demand for antibacterial soaps will increase, boosting the requirement for chloroxylenol.
