Growth Drivers

• High consumer demand for organic and natural products is likely to boost the growth of the global market.

There is a significant rise in the preference of people for organic and natural ingredients in different end-user sectors like pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food & beverages. Plant extracts are known to offer a valuable source of natural compounds. Therefore, it is of high use in numerous end-user sectors. Also, the surging awareness among people regarding their health and wellness is encouraging people to look forward to organic and natural products. These ingredients hold abundant potential to maintain the health of human beings. These extracts are widely known for their bioactive compound, which owns health-promoting properties. There is an increasing drive for nutritional and functional ingredients in food items among people, which in turn is likely to significantly boost the growth of the global plant extracts market in the forthcoming years.

Restraints

• High cost is expected to hamper the growth of the global market.

One of the major reasons for the high cost is forest degradation and species extinction. Therefore, medicinal plants are found in only certain countries in the world, thereby limiting their supply and raising their price. Also, these plants can only be produced once a year. Therefore, there is a huge imbalance in the supply and demand cycle which is another reason contributing to the high price of plant extracts.

Opportunities

• Technology advancements in the production process are expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities in the global market.

Technology advancements are helping to balance the gap between the supply and demand cycle, which is expected to widen the scope of the global plant extracts industry. The emergence of green technology is expected to offer incredible results in the future. For instance, the Polar Nonpolar Sandwich (PNS) technology is widely used for deriving bioactive extracts like essential oils, fiber, proteins, and polyphenols from turmeric root extracts. Therefore, such a landscape is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities in the global market in the forthcoming years.

Challenges

• Adulteration is a big challenge in the global market.

Adulteration of plant extract refers to the intentional addition of unauthorized or low-quality substances to plant extract, which degrades its efficacy, safety, and qualities. However, it poses a high risk to the health of consumers as well as the goodwill of the sector. Also, unscrupulous suppliers dilute plant extracts with synthetic compounds to maximize profit. However, this degrades the quality of the authentic plant extract.
