Dry Laundry Detergents Market - Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Forecast 2024
Dry
laundry detergents are widely used as cleaning agents to dry clean
several household products such as clothes and apparels. These are a
mixture of chemical compounds which can effectively remove oil, grease,
dirt, soil, stains, etc. from fabrics. In addition to cleaning, dry
laundry detergents aid in bleaching, softening, and conditioning of
fabrics. These detergents are typically formulated using surfactants,
builders, alkalis, enzymes, fabric softeners, brighteners, oxygen
bleaches, and fragrances. Surfactants are the active ingredients that
impart cleaning properties to laundry detergents. Surfactants used in
detergents are categorized into cationic, anionic, and non-ionic.

These
can include fatty acids, fatty alcohols, alkyl sulfates, alkyl
sulfonates, alkylbenzene sulfonates, alcohol ethoxylates, etc. They are
obtained from several sources such as petrochemicals, vegetable oils,
and animal fats. Builders improve the performance of surfactants, while
enzymes increase the speed of the cleaning process.
Dry
laundry detergents include washing powders, washing bars, and washing
tablets. The surfactant molecules present in dry laundry detergents form
micelle with the oil and grease of clothes in presence of water. The
hydrophilic group of surfactants is attracted to polar water molecules,
whereas the hydrophobic group of surfactants attract the non-polar oil
and dirt particles. Thus, detergents suspend oil, soil, and other
particles present in water and allow them to be removed from the surface
of fabric.
The
global dry laundry detergents market is projected to experience
moderate growth in the next few years. Asia Pacific dominated the dry
laundry detergents market in 2014. Rising awareness about hygiene
maintenance in developing countries such as China, India, Thailand, and
South Korea has led to considerable increase in demand for these
detergents. The dry laundry detergents market in Asia Pacific is
estimated to expand at a rapid growth rate during the forecast period.
North America also held a significant share of the global dry laundry
detergents market in 2014, followed by Europe. However, increasing
consumer preference for liquid detergents in developed countries can
translate into a sluggish growth rate in the dry laundry detergents
market in the next few years. Latin America and Middle East & Africa
are expected to be the potential markets for dry laundry detergents in
the near future. Developing countries such as Brazil and Saudi Arabia
are anticipated to emerge as prospective markets for dry laundry
detergents during the forecast period. The dry laundry detergents market
in Latin America and Middle East & Africa is expected to exhibit a
fast-paced CAGR during the forecast period.
Rise
in per capita income in developing countries such as India, China, and
Brazil is likely to propel the dry laundry detergents market in the next
few years. Increase in consumer awareness and rapid urbanization in
these developing countries are projected to boost the textiles and
apparels market. This, in turn, is anticipated to drive demand for dry
laundry detergents in the homecare sector. Furthermore, growth of the
hospitality industry in Asia Pacific has led to substantial rise in
demand for dry laundry detergents from hotels and restaurants. However,
increasing usage of liquid detergents is anticipated to hamper the
growth of the dry laundry detergents market during the forecast period.
Use of ingredients extracted from bio-based and renewable sources is
expected to lead to lucrative opportunities in the market.
