Increasing Focus on Aesthetic Appeal and Increasing Expenditure on Personal Care Products to Augment Growth of Copper Sulfate Market
Copper
sulfate is found in personal care products. It is also used as a fungicide and
herbicide for the treatment of orchards and vineyards and in industrial
production of Rayon.
Market Dynamics
Increasing focus on aesthetic appeal is expected to propel
growth of the copper sulfate market. For instance, according to a 2018 survey by GlobalData,
around three quarters of South Korean men undertake a beauty or grooming
treatment at least once a week. Moreover, increasing expenditure on personal
care products is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance,
according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics, average annual expenditure on personal care products in the U.S.
increased from US$ 707 in 2016 to US$ 768 in 2018.
Increasing demand for food is expected to boost demand for fungicide
and herbicide, thereby offering lucrative growth opportunities for players in
the copper sulfate market. For instance, according to Food and Agriculture
Organization, worldwide food demand is expected to increase by 70% by 2050. Moreover,
increasing demand for Rayon fabrics and growth in the textile sector is also
expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to National
Council of Textile Organizations (NCTO), 2018 state of the U.S. Textile
Industry Address, in 2017, the value of U.S. man-made fiber and filament,
textile, and apparel shipments totaled an estimated US$ 77.9 billion, an
increase from US$ 74.4 billion in output in 2016 and an increase of 16% since
2009.
However,
significant drop in wine production worldwide is expected to limit demand for copper
sulfate in orchards and vineyards. This in turn is expected to hinder growth of
the copper sulfate market. For instance, according to the International
Organization of Vine and Wine, the world’s total wine production in 2019 was
estimated to be 263 million hectoliters, a drop of 10% compared to 2018.
