The insect repellent market was valued at USD 4,394.45 million in 2021, and it is expected to register a CAGR of 6.85% during the forecast period of 2022-2027.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive outlook on the insect repellent market across the world as it is perceived as a home hygiene and home care product. In addition, the demand for personal hygiene and home care products is expected to rise further in the coming days due to the growing awareness among consumers because of the pandemic. Moreover, manufacturing companies believe that the pandemic has made consumers more aware of the need to maintain hygiene at a personal level and at home to reduce the chances of infection, which is expected to become a trend in the long run.

Over the medium term, the rising threat of diseases such as dengue, malaria, chikungunya, Zika virus, and yellow fever is expected to increase the demand for insect repellents during the forecast period. The government initiatives being undertaken for disease control, rising health awareness among people, and the affordable costs of these products are some of the major factors increasing the demand for insect repellents across the world.

Additionally, with an improvement in standards of living, increasing urbanization, and rising population, the demand for mosquito repellents is constantly on the rise, particularly in tropical parts of the region. Also, the wide range of insect repellents, including mosquito repellents, under different price ranges has made them easily accessible and affordable for a large consumer base.

Key Market Trends


Rising Prevalence of Insect-borne Diseases


The global urban population is becoming more health-conscious, and people are becoming more aware of the risks of mosquito bites. Furthermore, as the number of diseases caused by mosquitoes increases in developing countries, the rural populace is becoming increasingly concerned about health and hygiene. According to a WHO report released in March 2020, vector-borne diseases account for more than 17% of all infectious diseases. Each year, these diseases cause more than 700,000 deaths. They can be brought on by parasites, bacteria, or viruses. Several outbreaks of life-threatening infections, such as chikungunya, influenza, H1N1 virus, Zika virus, and dengue, have occurred in the previous decade, mostly spread by insect vectors. With the rise in vector-borne disease, the demand for and consumption of insect repellent products is likely to rise in the near future. This drives the market for insect repellent active chemicals. Additionally, these vector-borne diseases and new viruses can reach different regions via travel and goods transport. Also, growth in urbanization and industrialization is indirectly creating environmental pollution, which can promote the dominance of mosquito-borne diseases.



Increased Demand for Insect Repellents from Asia-Pacific


China represents the largest market for insect repellents in the Asia-Pacific region on account of being the most populous country having high disposable income, growing awareness, improved living standards, and affordable pricing of repellents, which has increased their penetration in household goods. All these factors cumulatively augment the sales of the product. Moreover, household insects like flies, termites, bed bugs, ants, and cockroaches are very common there. The use of insect repellants in usable forms like sprays, vaporizers, chalks, powders, and others has proliferated product sales in Chinese homes. Whereas, in India, growing awareness and rising health concerns among people, backed by increased household income and affordable product pricing, have improved insect repellents' penetration in Indian homes. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, in 2016, launched the National Framework for Malaria Elimination. The government also launched the National Strategic Plan for Malaria Elimination, which layed down strategies for the next five years from 2017-2022. Additionally, the launch of various programs like Swacch Bharat Abhiyaan has increased the importance of hygiene and cleanliness in people’s minds, which improved the market growth. For instance, the incidences of malaria caused by mosquitoes have reduced significantly. As per data from the WHO, there was a decline of 28% in malaria cases and a 41% decrease in malaria-related deaths during 2017-2018. Insect repellents in coil form are the most popular products in the region because they are cost-effective and available across all retail channels. Among the rural areas of the region, offline distribution channels like convenience stores are more popular.
