CONDITIONING POLYMERS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global conditioning polymers market size was USD 0.77 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 1.34 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period.

Ingredients called conditioning polymers give hair conditioning benefits. They smooth down the surface of the hair and lessen friction between the strands, making combing simpler. Without changing the hair's inherent qualities, conditioning polymers also aid in boosting the moisture of the hair.

Shampoos and other hair care product formulas aim to do more than merely clean the hair and remove dandruff. Customers anticipate a number of further advantages, including conditioning, comfort, comfortability, and smoothing of hair surfaces. The usage of conditioning polymers in shampoos has considerably risen over the past few years since they are crucial to delivering many of those qualities. Cationic polymers, or conditioning polymers, are utilized in body washes and hair conditioners in the personal care industry.

COVID-19 Impact: Supply Chain Disruptions to Hindere the Market

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with conditioning polymers experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

Covid badly affected the conditioning polymers market due to supply chain disruptions and shortage in raw materials was also observed. Shortage of labor and strict protocols such as lockdowns and restrictions on movement created roadblocks, disruptions in end-use sectors of the product led to lower demand.
