Factors Affecting the Growth of the Squalene Industry:

● Rising Demand for Natural and Organic Cosmetics:

It can be said that the market for personal care products is growing. This growth is as a result of the growing consumer preference for natural and organic foods. Many consumers are now aware of the negative effects that come with synthetic foods or substances. And as a result, they are turning to natural compounds. While squalene derived from olives and sugar cane is now used for its excellent moisturizing effects. Cosmetics manufacturers are now using squalene in their products, especially in cosmetic products such as skin and hair care products. Also the market growth is positively influenced by the clean beauty trend, which is all about transparency and the trend towards natural ingredients.

● Growth in the Pharmaceutical Industry:

Squalene boosts immunity and is therefore useful for vaccines. Its market is growing due to more research on vaccines and vaccinations. Moreover, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects are building its functions in healthcare products. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, as well as the shift from curative to preventive models are other drivers in the market. On the other hand, firms are engaging in research to identify new uses of squalene in commerce.

● Technological Advancements in Extraction Methods:

There are constant improvements on the extraction and synthesis of squalene, which is expanding the market. Nowadays new methods use plants such as olives and sugar cane, overcoming both cost and sustainability barriers. This shift reduces the reliance on shark liver oil in tackling this issue and also addresses environmental and ethical issues. Furthermore, these techniques increase the yield and quality of squalene to make it efficient for use like never before. As the production process is optimized, it will be possible to reduce the cost of squalene and make it available for use in many industries.
