The global aerosol can market size was valued at USD 10.52 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 11.08 billion in 2024 to USD 17.32 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.75% during the forecast period.


An aerosol can is an independent dispensing system in which a substance is stored in a container and expelled as a fine spray, mist, or foam. These cans are sealed so that the product they contain cannot leak or spill, and the valve system allows for the precise amount of product to be applied from a safe distance. The increasing efficient use of such cans, particularly in the pharmaceutical sector to dispense drugs that need to be inhaled in measured doses, is enhancing the growth of this market. The use of these cans in the food industry to avoid product contamination and spills, such as frosting pastries and cheese foam, is also contributing to the increased demand in this sector. Moreover, the growing demand for such cans in the automotive, paints, and personal care industries, owing to many benefits, is further thriving the growth of this market.


The COVID-19 pandemic had adverse impacts on all economies and the market. As people were forced to maintain social distance, the shutdown of borders and manufacturing units resulted in a decline in the demand and supply of products, leading to negative growth in the industries. The personal care, automotive & industrial, and other sectors experienced a negative demand during that phase, leading to negative growth during the pandemic.


Aerosol Can Market Trends


Rising Concern for Hygiene is Emerging as the New Trend for the Homecare Segment


The pandemic made consumers more aware of the importance of hygiene and cleanliness to safeguard their health and avoid the spread of diseases. Retailers experienced exceptional demand for cleaning products, such as sanitizers, hand sanitizers, and other household cleaning supplies. The cans provide an untouched experience, and the propellant makes it easier to dispense the product, thus driving the growth of this market. With changing lifestyles, rapid urbanization, and increased spending on such products, consumers have become more conscious of maintaining a clean and hygienic environment. This has led to an increase in demand for organic and sustainable cleaning products.


As more and more people become health-conscious and concerned about the environmental impact of the products they use, the demand for organic household cleaners has increased. Consumers are looking for eco-friendly dishwashing products and toilet care with natural ingredients and refreshing scents. This has led to innovative cleaning products with different scents, packaging, and qualities. The demand for home care products in developed and emerging nations due to the thriving real estate sector, household spending, and housing unit growth are some of the growth factors driving the demand for these cans in the home care segments.

Aerosol Can Market Growth Factors


Recyclability of Aluminum Cans is Enhancing the Global Aerosol Can Market Growth


Metal packaging has become a preferred choice for brands aiming to advance their circular initiatives. The key advantage of metal is its ability to undergo repeated recycling processes without sacrificing purity or quality. Aluminum aerosol cans are manufactured from high-purity aluminum, and their high value, combined with a high level of effectiveness and the unique properties of metal, offers superior packaging and a competitive advantage over other packaging types, thus driving the demand for aluminum cans in the global market. Moreover, recycling aluminum uses 95% less energy than manufacturing aluminum from raw materials, and 97% of the greenhouse gas emissions generated in the primary production process are saved. In addition, manufacturing aluminum cans from recycled metal is 20 times more energy-efficient than using crucial materials. People's interest in aluminum cans is shifting due to recyclability and increased awareness of sustainability.


For instance, CMI (Can Manufacture Institute) and HCPA (Household & Commercial Products Association) launched an Aerosol Recycling Initiative with the support of almost 20 companies across the aerosol value chain to increase access to aerosol recycling and on-pack recyclability messaging. The main goal of the initiative is to achieve an 85% recycling access rate for almost all aerosol cans, label at least 90% of cans as recyclable, and educate others on how to properly recycle them. Hence, such initiatives and awareness activities are fueling the market’s growth.


Furthermore, manufacturers are taking initiatives by incorporating recycled aluminum in the packaging, and one such initiative is taken by Beiersdorf, which is a personal care product manufacturer. In September 2023, the company announced that all its deodorant cans will contain at least 50% recycled aluminum and will weigh 11.6% less due to material reduction. The initiative will reduce CO2e emissions in the aerosol can value chain by around 58%.


Increasing Demand from the Cosmetic Industry is Driving the Growth of this Market


Aerosol cans are extensively used in the personal care and cosmetics industry for products such as hairsprays, deodorants, body mists, shaving creams, and sunscreens. Rising disposable incomes in emerging markets are enabling people to spend more on their personal care and cosmetics products, fueling the growth of this market. Deodorants and perfumes remain the dominant and most important markets for these cans, accounting for almost 55% of the cans produced worldwide. The dominance is attributed to the can’s suitable packaging for global brands and their products. Due to the premium quality inherent in the material, the luxurious feel, and their convincing visual appearance, which enables persuasive product differentiation at the point of sale, they are often positioned in the high-price segment. In addition, aerosols offer high quality and safety standards as well as all the convenience aspects that are expected of packaging, especially in the upscale segment. Furthermore, sophisticated printing techniques offer marketing strategies and opportunities to place brand product images in an effective and eye-catching manner, thus driving the demand for these cans in the body care and cosmetics industries.


Furthermore, men today are more aware of skincare than ever before. They understand that appropriate skincare goes beyond just looking good—it is also about maintaining healthy skin. Therefore, using suitable grooming essentials is crucial to maintain optimal skin health. Thus, rising in the demand for men’s grooming products is driving the growth of this market.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Ignorance in the Usage of Aerosol Cans is Impeding Market Growth


Aerosol cans have various uses and are employed in different end-use industries. However, these cans are deemed unsafe due to the unusual mixture of substances stored under pressure in the metal canister. Even if the active substance is not a hazardous chemical (such as food products), it can still burst or turn into a dangerous projectile. The biggest concern with such cans in the workplace is their potential to ignite other harmful chemicals and substances.


Insecticides, adhesives, car sprays, paints, cleaning products, solvents, and varnishes are all harmful materials and can cause injury if a worker inhales or ingests the chemicals. Therefore, it becomes extremely important for supervisors to check Safety Data Sheets (SDS) before allowing new chemicals into the workplace. Sometimes, this practice needs to be remembered when the substance arrives packaged in a neat little aerosol can, leading to accidents and restricting the market growth.


Furthermore, these cans are mainly single-use, and the dispenser is non-refillable. Due to the amount of propellant gas contained in the mixture, only a smaller amount of pure product is applied, thereby increasing waste and similar factors that restrain the market’s growth.


Aerosol Can Market Segmentation Analysis


By Material Analysis


Aluminum's Versatility and Recyclability Propel Its Market Leadership


Based on material, the market is segmented into aluminum, steel & tinplate, and plastic.


Aluminum holds the largest market share. It is preferred by manufacturers, retailers, and mainly buyers due to its better physical properties over other materials.

Necked-in Cans Gaining Traction for Residue Elimination and Enhanced Shine in the Industrial Sector


Based on product type, the market is segmented into straight wall, necked-in, shaped, and others. The necked-in segment holds the largest aerosol can market share. These cans are sealed and thus provide safety to the content inside and prevent it from any contamination. The use of necked-in cans in the industrial sector to eliminate residue in engines and enhance shine is driving the growth of this segment.
