Lauric fatty acids are used in a variety of industries, including food and cosmetics. Because of its moisturising properties, it has been widely employed in the preparation of fat-based formulations. Because of its antimicrobial characteristics, it is also utilised in anti-microbial consumer items such as soaps and detergents. In addition, when coupled with other anionic compounds, lauric acid can be used to make surfactants or emulsifiers since it has an excellent cleansing effect and foamability. Furthermore, lauric acid derivatives have a variety of other applications, including use as an antifungal agent and a bactericide in water purification plants for cooling towers and swimming pools. The lauric acid market has grown as a result of its diverse range of uses.

Companies are boosting their production capacity to meet rising demand for personal care products, which drives up demand for raw materials like emulsifier. Lauric acid is a low-cost, non-toxic emulsifier with a long shelf life that is used to make soap, detergent, and other personal care products. The United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) has classified lauric acid as "Generally Regarded as Safe" (GRAS) for cosmetic use.

Lauric acid, also called dodecanoic acid, is present in coconut and palm oils, as well as milk. It's a white, powdery material with a bay oil or soap-like odour. Because of its 12-carbon atom chain, it is classified as a medium chain saturated fatty acid. It is less expensive than other fatty acids and retains its potency for a longer period of time, resulting in a longer shelf life. The lauric acid market is divided into two categories: application and geography.

Lauric fatty acids of cosmetic grade are utilised in the creation of skincare, haircare, and cosmetics. Because lauric acid is produced naturally in human breast milk, it can be administered to the skin without causing any harm or negative effects.

The strict regulation on the manufacturing of lauric acid, which is directly utilised in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care items, pharmaceuticals, food and drinks limits the market growth. This is the key factor that is impeding the growth of the lauric acid market.

Furthermore, surge in demand for personal care products, growing awareness about animal health resulting in rising demand for additives, product innovation is anticipated to be a growth opportunity to the global lauric acid market.
