The North America essential oils market size is expected to reach USD 15.70 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This growth can be attributed to the rising utilization of the product from numerous end-use industries such as food & beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and cleaning, among others.
Essential oils compatibility with various substances like glucose, starch, fats, oils, acids, and non-ionic emulsifiers further drives market growth. The increasing demand for naturally derived oils and the growing popularity of aromatherapy are positively influencing the market. Consumer education plays a crucial role, as greater awareness of essential oil applications and usage leads to increased sales.
Flavors and fragrances provide lasting sensory impressions, often determined by taste and smell chemicals when subtly applied via food, beverage, medical products, and other substances. These products enhance the overall appeal and aesthetic value of consumer goods. Flavors and fragrances are mostly prepared using volatile chemicals and essential oils to deliver a specific flavor or enhance existing flavors. Food flavors can be categorized as natural and synthetic. Increasing consumer demand for fresh and natural products has contributed to exponential segment growth.
On the other hand, stringent federal regulations regarding farming and cultivation as well as environmental impact of these operations have restricted excess farming activities and decreased the supply of crops for essential oils production. Raw materials are required for these derived fragrances and these oils are highly susceptible to political upheaval, changing agricultural practices, disease outbreaks, and natural disasters. Numerous popular oils including lavender, ylang-ylang, rose, iris, jasmine, sandalwood, vanilla, or vetiver cannot be synthesized unnaturally in laboratories and need to be sourced from actual plant matter.
