Recent Developments:

  • In December 2023, Citronella oil (CO) was mixed into soy protein isolate (SPI) to make antibacterial protein films. The films were discovered to be smooth and flat, with excellent compatibility and UV-blocking capabilities. CO also increased the hydrophobic characteristics, lowering water content by 20%. The films demonstrated strong antimicrobial efficacy against S. aureus and E. coli, with a survival rate of more than 70% and an apoptotic rate of 5.3% for BEAS-2B cells. They also demonstrated high freshness and capacity for storage, indicating their suitability for food packaging applications.
  • In October 2022, Shoolini University researchers devised a solar-powered system named 'Rayansh' for collecting citronella oil from lemongrass plants. The revolutionary technology, priced at Rs. 6,000 per liter, not only simplifies the extraction process but also boosts oil production significantly.

Citronella Oil Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing demand for perfumes

The worldwide citronella oil market is being driven by rising demand in the perfume and cosmetics sectors. The surge in scent pricing is not attributable to growing inflation but rather to changes in consumer behavior during stressful and uncertain times. Consumers' need for a touch of luxury has pushed the market for prestige perfumes.

American buyers are spending more for a variety of things, including cosmetics and self-care items. Demand for higher-priced eau de parfums, or perfumes with a larger percentage of aroma oils, has fuelled the increase in fragrance sales. Perfume sales increased by 52% in 2020, excluding home smells. The demand for premium perfumes is driven.

Restraint: Side effects

Citronella oil may cause moderate skin and eye irritation, coughing, skin allergies, and throat discomfort. However, the US EPA claims that the dangers to human health and the environment are minor. Citronella-containing registered pesticides are safe for humans, the environment, and pets.

Children under six months old may be susceptible to pesticides. Thus, citronella-containing products should not be used unless prescribed by a physician. Citronella oil is safe to use during pregnancy, but only under the guidance of a doctor. Children should not use citronella-based repellents alone since they may put their hands in their mouths.

Opportunity: Nanotechnology matrix-based citronella oil insect repellent

The goal of this work was to construct a long-lasting, safe insect repellent by encapsulating citronella oil (CO) in a nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC). The primary chemical components of citronellal, geraniol, and citronellol were discovered and employed as indicators for in vitro skin permeation testing.

An ideal NLC formulation was created, with an average particle size of 350 nm. The NLC was combined with CO in varying ratios to generate a repellent reservoir on the skin's surface. Over 24 hours, the nanocarriers remained stable and delivered increased insect-repellent effectiveness while causing limited skin penetration. Because of its low skin penetration, a 1:1 combination of CO or NLC-CO administered in an O/W emulsion is deemed safe for topical administration.

Asia Pacific Citronella Oil Market Size and Forecast

The Asia Pacific citronella oil market size was estimated at USD 45.54 million in 2023 and is expected to surpass around USD 79.05 million by 2033 with a CAGR of 5.66% from 2024 to 2033.

Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2023. The rapid rise of the citronella oil market is attributable to the expansion of end-use sectors and increased consumer knowledge of its advantages, with industries such as pharmaceuticals and food and beverage likely to fuel this growth. The event, which will be held at BITEC Bangkok on November 7-9, 2023, will include the region's leading fragrance ingredient providers. In 2023, the Asian fragrance market produced sales of US$11.87 billion. Amid the epidemic, the fragrance industry saw a boom termed the 'Fragrance Effect,' as many customers resorted to scents as their go-to buy amid lockdowns and restrictions.

North America is observed to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The North American market for citronella oils has grown in popularity because of government efforts and an increase in "Green solutions" and natural essential oils. Lifestyle changes and greater disposable income have driven up demand in the pharmaceutical and aromatherapy businesses. Pharmaceuticals, as well as food and drinks, are projected to drive the industry. Advancements in the extraction and concentration of essential oils have resulted in lower average oil prices. Consumer demand for essential oils is likely to expand, as will their application in cosmetics and personal care products, increasing the regional industry even more.

Report Highlights of Citronella Oil Market

Product Outlook

The java citronella oil segment dominated the citronella oil market in 2023. Citronella Java is a powerful insect repellent with antiviral, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory qualities, making it useful for treating skin problems like eczema and psoriasis. It also works as a room refresher, removing smells and refreshing the air. Its natural relaxing properties assist in easing muscular tension, reducing stress, and boosting mood. Citronella is a multipurpose cleanser that may be used on both household surfaces and laundry.

The Ceylon citronella oil segment is the fastest growing during the forecast period. Ceylon Citronella is cultivated commercially for its fragrant oil, which includes citronella, a lemon-like odor. Scientific cultivation methods provide high-quality oil, which is utilized in cosmetics, fragrances, soaps, detergents, and medicines. The oil is of high quality and is used for anti-inflammatory characteristics, foul odor removal, urine stimulation, toxin elimination, fungus growth inhibition, fever reduction, insect repellent, and stomach issue prevention.

Grade Outlook

The food-grade segment dominated the citronella oil market in 2023. The food-grade oil is the purest form of oil used in foods for flavor and fragrance. Food-grade purity is achieved by performing multiple levels of purification or distillation, and about 95% of purification is achieved to make it food-grade. Citronella, a leek-like herb, is frequently utilized in infusions and fish dishes. To extract its taste and bulb aroma, crush it like a clove of garlic when adding it to other components. Its spicy taste is appropriate for use in modest amounts in salads, soups, stews, and sauces.

Citronella is commonly used in Vietnamese cuisine alongside ginger, garlic, chili, and coriander, and it additionally serves to marinate meats. Citronella is additionally employed in cocktails to flavor gin tonics, mojitos, and other drinks. In conclusion, citronella is a multipurpose ingredient that lends an unusual twist to any recipe, making it a valuable complement to any culinary project.

The aromatherapy segment is expected to grow the fastest during the forecast period. Lemongrass oil has been demonstrated in research to have potential advantages such as reducing headache pain, controlling blood sugars and lipids, and treating nausea and stomach ulcers. It has been used as a folk treatment for generations and is frequently included in herbal teas and supplements. Lemongrass oil may be used in baths, skincare treatments, and massages, with diluted drops added to bathwater for a mild aroma and diluted for skin treatment to promote elasticity and youthfulness.

Application Outlook

The perfume segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. Citronella oil, made from lemongrass, is a common source of fragrance compounds such as citronellol, geraniol, and citronellal. Its pleasant and long-lasting aroma is employed in perfumes because of its insect-repelling characteristics. Citronella oil is a popular perfume ingredient, with synthetic and natural options available.

Geraniol in citronella possesses antibacterial capabilities, having the highest activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli at a 10% concentration. Geraniol, found in aromatic anti-bacterial fragrances, has the highest antibacterial action at a concentration of 10%, nearly comparable to Dettol.
