Global Argan Oil Market Analysis

Type Analysis

The conventional argan oil is extracted from the kernels of the tree. It is rich in essential oils and other nutrients. Argan trees, which are slow-growing and endemic to Morocco’s barren lands, are a rare species. Traditional harvesting involves the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and irrigation water to grow high-yielding varieties. This type can be used to manufacture personal care and cosmetics as well as pharmaceuticals, aromatic, food and cleaning products.

Organic argan oils are the purest and most widely used form of argan oil. They are also used extensively in aromatherapy. Organic argan oil can be harvested using biobased fertilizers, such as green manure, compost manure, or bone meal. This helps to increase crop yield. This oil is being sold as a luxury product and is becoming more popular among international cosmetics firms.

Form Analysis

Absolute Argan oil is a concentrated version that is extracted from the plant kernels using solvent extraction methods. This oil is obtained by the pulverization and subsequent suspension of the kernels in solvents. After that, the solvents can be vaporized to get the oil. The absolute form is used in perfumery and aromatherapy as well as cosmetic products.

The blended form is a mixture of argan oil, vegetables, and essential oils. This blend is most commonly used in recipes, cleaning, and for home product formulations. Moroccan consumers tend to prefer traditional products. The forecast shows that this market will grow because of the rising demand for cosmetic products made from argan oil and the growing use of these blends in the cosmetics segment.

Application Analysis

Argan oil is becoming more popular in medical applications because of its anti-inflammatory properties and anti-proliferative, antioxidant, antiproliferative, analgesic, and aphrodisiac properties. It can be used to treat infections like chickenpox and skin-related conditions like burns, eczema, or psoriasis. It is effective in treating cuts, skin wounds, and abrasions.

Argan oil is used in aromatherapy massage, which is well-known for its many benefits. It can help relax, balance, and harmonize the mind and body. Additionally, it boosts the immune system to support various bodily functions as well as fight infections. Argan oil is also available as a cosmetic and food-grade for commercial use.

Distribution Channel Analysis

Due to limited production and availability, the argan market value chain for argan oil is characterized by the existence of a well-established distribution network to ensure consistent product availability throughout the globe. The business-to-business (B2B), includes the sale, distribution, and trading of the product via the Internet, wholesalers, or value-added resellers. Many Argan oil producers export their products around the world through logistic and transport partners.

The process of selling products to end-users and consumers through supermarkets, departmental shops, specialty stores, or online stores is called Business to Consumers (B2C). The sales through hypermarkets/supermarkets are anticipated to witness significant growth in North America, Europe, and MEA. The product will also be sold online in the Asia Pacific and Central America. Customers will enjoy a more convenient buying experience.

Market Dynamics

The kernels from argan tree fruits can be extracted either manually or by a mechanical method. The kernels were used to extract oil manually in the past. Machines have allowed for faster and more consistent production.

Argan oil has been a top-selling product in the cosmetics, beauty and personal care industry. The oil’s unique properties (high levels of antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and other notable benefits for skincare and haircare) are what has made it a popular choice. The popularity of grooming products for men, such as hair and beard oils and skin creams, has increased over the past few decades.

Europe is one of the biggest argan oil consumers in the world. The European market is dominated by product applications in the cosmetics and personal care industries. Most cosmetic grade is processed in Europe using solvent extraction of kernels. This is mainly used to prepare moisturizers and shampoos. Europe has been an important participant in biopharmaceutical and other research in the last few years. Over the past decade, regional pharmaceutical companies have produced biobased medicines that treat a variety of diseases, including cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure.

Regional Analysis

North America is now a major consumer of argan oils due to the increased use of biobased personal and cosmetic care, as well as aromatherapy products. Aromatherapy healing benefits the body, mind and spirit. Aromatherapy massage helps to restore body balance, reduce stress, and supports various body functions, including fighting infection. Aromatherapy products have been popularized in North America and can be found in specialist shops or online shopping centers.

The only place in the world that is engaged in commercial-scale production is the Middle East and Africa. Argan trees can be found in Morocco’s semi-arid and arid regions, such as Agadir and Essaouira. A number of multinational cosmetics firms and non-governmental organizations have been working together to promote the planting of argan trees and prevent deforestation in this region, due to the many benefits that argan oil offers. L’Oreal, BASF SE and others have created a sourcing program that fosters the supply chain.
