Biosurfactants Companies

In terms of value, the biosurfactants market is estimated to grow from USD 1.65 billion in 2025 to USD 2.89 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 11.79%.

The biosurfactants market is a rapidly advancing and growing industry, driven by the global shift toward sustainable and bio-based ingredients in various sectors, including personal care, home care, agriculture, food processing, and oilfield chemicals. As environmental protection laws have limited the application of surfactants of petroleum origin, and consumers have expressed a greater preference for natural and biodegradable products, biosurfactants have gained significant momentum as environmentally friendly surface-active agents. They possess outstanding biodegradability and low toxicity, combined with high performance in harsh environments, which is why they are preferred by industries seeking to reduce their carbon footprint and enhance product performance. The technological development in fermentation and downstream processing also positively affects market expansion, as it has increased production yield and lowered expenses, thereby fostering the commercial-scale use of technology. Additionally, the collaboration between chemical producers and biotechnology companies enables the development of new biosurfactant structures and expands their application range. The rise of sustainability as the key focus of corporate approaches is making biosurfactants more than a niche substitute product into a mainstream component of industry and consumer product lines.
