Strategic Insights
Monoethanolamine Market Growth Drivers- Growth of Chemical Industry: Chemical industry growth is one of the most important monoethanolamine stimulants, as it's rapidly progressing. Some industries grow with the increasing demand for MEA - an all-rounder chemical intermediate. MEA is used in the production of surfactants, emulsifiers, and solvents.
- Rising Global Population Drives MEA Demand in Agrochemicals: With an increasing global population, the demand for effective crop protection solutions is getting high. Moreover, as their usage increases along with effective crop protection solutions, agrochemicals containing MEA are also acquiring popularity. Therefore, this rising demand for monoethanolamine can act as a helper to the overall growth of the market because manufacturers are now searching for efficient solutions for modern agricultural practices.
- Role in Pharmaceutical Synthesis Strengthens Market Demand: The synthesis of APIs also comes under the reliance of the pharmaceutical industry on MEA. A greater need for more reliable intermediates, such as MEA, arises from the fast movement of drugs along with the development of new therapies. This eventually leads to an increase in demand within the pharmaceutical industry; however, it also consolidates the position of MEA as a key figure in the overall chemical map.
- Demand for Personal Care Products: The personal care products sector is emerging as a significant trend driver of growth in the monoethanolamine (MEA) market. MEA is widely utilized in formulating a variety of personal care products, such as shampoos and conditioners, and formulations of skin care. Its surfactant and emulsifier properties enhance product effectiveness in capturing the attention of consumers seeking solutions.This soaring demand for innovative, multifunctional products in the personal care sector leads manufacturers to add more of MEA in their formulations. It will become the strength for those brands, who look to get different in a marketplace, as the emulsifying ability of MEA along with an improvement in texture is likely to be that boost that MEA demand in the personal care sector would need.
- Consumer Focus on Safety and Efficacy Fuels MEA Adoption in Skincare: One more increasing consumer awareness of the safety and efficacy of the ingredients that drive the change in consumer preferences. The applications of MEA can vary, it can be used in non-irritating formulations of sensitive skin's products; this is extremely appealing for a brand interested in skin care. With the emphasis of the consumers on product quality and safety, adoption of MEA in the personal care product formulations is quite consistent with these fast-evolving trends.
- Increase Use in Detergent Manufacturing: The MEA market is largely fueled by growth prospects in detergent production. MEA is a key ingredient used in several cleaning formulations and is widely used in laundry detergents and other household cleaners. Its surfactant property makes it extremely useful in enhancing effectiveness in cleaning and therefore finds its applicability in manufacturing areas where enhancement in product effectiveness is the prime focus.
- Demand for Eco-Friendly and Effective Detergents Boosts MEA Usage: The increases in demand for greener and more effective formulations for cleaning are influencing the use of MEA in detergent mixtures. As consumers wake up to the grave environmental implications of cleaning products, manufacturers find themselves looking for environmentally friendly, safe, yet highly effective ingredients. Therefore, the requirement is fulfilled by MEA, thereby creating further opportunities in the market.
- Concentrated and Sustainable Detergents Increase MEA Demand: Another key source of growth for MEA is in the area of detergent formulations, where the market is focusing on concentrated and environmentally friendly products. Emulsifiers and surfactants, among others, will have to function to new performance standards introduced by the formulations, which is an area where the specific properties of MEA can become a point of difference. Increases will also reflect the growing demand for quality ingredients such as MEA in an evolving detergent sector.

Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.
- Data Triangulation and Final Review:
The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
