Petroleum Jelly Market- New Technological Development Projecting Massive Growth till 2030
According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the petroleum jelly market will grow by 3.8% annually in 2022, reaching a value of about US$ 463.8 Mn by the end of the year. Between the years 2022 and 2030, a 4.2% growth rate in the global economy is predicted.
In use for several decades, petroleum jelly has
cemented its position as a crucial component in the cosmetics and
pharmaceutical sectors. Owing to its healthy properties, petroleum jelly
products such as vaseline, lotions, creams, hand cleaners have gained steady
demand. With a continual demand for personal care products owing to high
disposable incomes and rising awareness among consumers, especially
millennials, the future of the market looks promising.
As petroleum jelly exists in a semi-solid
form, it is thick in nature. As a result, human skin cannot completely absorb petroleum
jelly, which enables it to act like a barrier preventing dirt formation and
subsequently avoiding skin damage. Moreover, on the back of its fibrous and
greasy structure, and composition of mineral oils, petroleum jelly has become
an ideal raw material to produce pharmaceutical products.

On this premise, petroleum jelly is used in
the production of healing products to treat burns, cuts, and scrapes to fasten
the healing process in the injured area. Likewise, it is used in the healthcare
sector after laser skin resurfacing and hepatitis treatment, thus further
boosting the market growth. Demand for cosmetic grade petroluem jelly and
pharmaceutical grade petroluem jelly is likely to grow during the forecast
period.
Furthermore, petroleum jelly acts as an
excellent anti-rusting agent and water repellant and is odorless and inert. The
aforementioned properties make it suitable for a wide range of applications
across various industries such as leather, telecommunications, and
manufacturing. Considering there is a continual need for preventing rusting of
equipment, petroleum jelly is used in marine applications as well, which is
anticipated to bestow lucrative revenue opportunities to market players.
Having analyzed and scrutinized all the
aforementioned facets in its new market study, Future Market Insights (FMI)
projects that the global petroleum jelly market will grow in value at a CAGR of
4.2% between 2022 and 2030. Some of the key takeaways from the report include:
- The global
petroleum jelly market is projected to surge past valuation of US$ 646.6
Mn by the end of the forecast period.
- On the basis
of grade, USP graded-petroleum jelly is foreseen to remain the most
sought-out grade owing to its high purity, which ensures healthy adoption
in the skincare sector.
- Based on
end-use, the cosmetics & personal care sector is projected to drive
the majority of revenue through the forecast period, ascribed to the
industry's reliance on petroleum jelly as a component in manufacturing
lotions and other personal care products.
- East Asia,
led by China, is poised to maintain hegemony over the regional landscape
through the forecast period, backed by the presence of a healthy
pharmaceutical sector.
- On the same
path, South Asia is expected to prevail as the second most lucrative
region, owing to industrial growth in emerging economies such as India and
Vietnam.
- Europe, being
the world’s largest producer of cosmetics, will also remain a prominent
region, and will continue to progress on a positive growth trajectory.
COVID-19 Impact on Petroleum Jelly
Market
Although it is certain the demand for petroleum
jelly witnessed a downtrend during the pandemic, the growth of the market is
expected to remain largely unhindered on a broader level. As a result of
nationwide lockdowns, with people confined to their homes, the sales of
cosmetic products plummeted, subsequently impacting the demand for petroleum
jelly. However, this is expected to change as normality in workspaces starts to
gradually return, necessitating cosmetics as people get back to their routine.
This is expected to propel the sales of cosmetics and, in turn, petroleum
jelly. Moreover, a recent study conducted in the UK found that petroleum jelly
is the best lubricant for people wearing PPE as it reduces friction between
skin and PPE material, thus lowering the risk of skin tears, blistering, and
hives. This is expected to proliferate demand among frontline healthcare
workers who have to use PPE for a prolonged time.
