Coconut Oil Emerges as Key Raw Material Source

Coconut oil is the leading raw material source, accounting for 28.6% of the market in 2025. Its natural surfactants and fatty acid derivatives provide efficient grease removal with minimal skin and environmental toxicity. Global demand is supported by reliable supply chains from tropical regions, while innovations in natural ingredient processing allow manufacturers to produce multi-purpose, eco-friendly degreasers for sensitive industrial and commercial applications.

Industrial Cleaning Dominates End-Use Applications

The industrial cleaning segment contributes 31.9% of market revenue, driven by the need for compliant, safe, and efficient degreasing solutions in manufacturing facilities, workshops, and maintenance operations. As organizations adopt ISO-certified and green manufacturing practices, the shift from petrochemical-based solvents to biobased alternatives accelerates, ensuring operational safety and environmental compliance.
