Herbal Extract Market Size, Share, and Analysis By Source (Mint, Lavender, Basil, and Others), By Form (Liquid and Powder), By Application (Food & Beverages, Pharmaceuticals, Personal Care, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Herbal extracts are derived from natural sources compared to their counter-products derived from chemicals and other synthetic agents. The use of chemical products is associated with several diseases that negatively affect the human body. Hence, the demand for natural ingredients such as herbal extracts has increased significantly in recent years. 

Countries such as China, India, Japan, among others, have large cultivation areas under herbal plants. These regions have developed traditional approaches to extract natural ingredients from the plants and produce different kinds of products. Additionally, the cost associated with the extraction of active ingredients is comparatively lower than synthetic compounds. Thus, the cost-effectiveness related to the use of natural ingredients helps companies to develop new products containing active ingredients obtained from herbal sources.

Purchasing and consumption patterns of consumers are also changing rapidly, with more emphasis on products that are composed of natural ingredients. As consumers are increasingly becoming health conscious,  the demand for natural ingredients is increasing rapidly. In developed economies, there is a growing trend of purchasing clean label products as they increase the transparency and traceability of the products.  

Despite the increasing demand for such products, there is a lack of standardization in the production process, affecting the quality of the materials manufactured by the process. The raw material prices may fluctuate due to the low productivity and growth of the herbs, thus causing volatility in the price of products manufactured using plant extracts. Additionally, the availability of other synthetic substitutes also restrains the herbal extracts market growth.
