Propanediol Market to Reach USD 33.02 Million by 2035, Fueled by Rising Demand for Sustainable and Bio-Based Ingredients | Fact.MR Report

The propanediol industry is worth USD 23.06 million in 2025. According to Fact.MR analysis, it will expand at a CAGR of 3.5% and reach USD 33.02 million by 2035.

In 2024, the market experienced growth, indicating an ongoing trend towards bio-based alternatives within the cleaning product and personal care industries. The North American market, with about 31% share, experienced higher purchasing by mid-tier cosmetics companies to reformulate their product lines using greener solvents such as 1,3-propanediol.

Availability of raw materials was stable, but volatility in input costs, especially from corn-based feedstocks, caused minimal price adjustments.

On the demand side, DuPont Tate & Lyle Bio Products and DSM & Metabolic Explorer remained in command, but smaller domestic actors in Asia became more prominent because they were competitive in pricing and utilized localized procurement strategies. Regulatory trends favoring safer, non-irritating solvents also promoted the substitution of petroleum-derived glycols with PDO in personal care emulsions and gels.

Sustainability and Eco-Friendly Trends:

One of the leading drivers of the propanediol market is the increasing focus on eco-friendly living and sustainable consumption. Customers are looking for safer, non-irritating, and biodegradable ingredients in everyday products, which is driving manufacturers to use bio-based inputs such as propanediol. Its minimal environmental footprint and lower carbon footprint are well-suited to these market demands.

Increasing Use in Personal Care & Cosmetics:

Propanediol is being used more and more as a humectant, solvent, and emollient in personal care, baby care, and haircare products. It is a natural substitute for petroleum-derived glycols and synthetic chemicals, which makes it extremely desirable for clean-label and organic product brands. Its moisturizing and preservative-enhancing properties also make it extremely useful in personal care formulations.

Regulatory Push for Green Chemicals:

Government agencies and global organizations are actively encouraging green chemistry and minimizing the use of toxic chemicals. Propanediol agrees with such regulations and provides a safer alternative without any loss of function. Regulatory endorsement for bio-based chemicals reinforces the prospects of its market.
