Research Highlights
The European market for natural & organic personal care products continues to grow at a healthy rate, with revenues forecast to approach EUR 2 billion in 2010.
This new report finds that although the economic recession has affected market growth rates, consumer demand for 'chemically-clean' and ecological cosmetics remains buoyant. Consumers are turning to natural and organic products as they become aware of the possible dangers of parabens, phthalates and other synthetic ingredients in cosmetics & toiletries.
Mainstream retailers are responding to high consumer demand by introducing natural & organic personal care products, many under their private labels. The entry of large retail groups is causing a large shift in sales from specialist to mainstream retailers in Europe. Products are crossing over from specialist retailers to supermarkets, hypermarkets, drugstores and pharmacies.
The report finds that Germany has the largest market for natural & organic personal care products. The market share of natural & organic personal care products has reached 5 percent in Germany, whereas it remains below 3 percent in most other European countries. The French market has been showing the highest growth because of increasing retail penetration.
Although healthy growth rates are continuing, the natural cosmetics market faces many obstacles to future growth. Major obstacles include low consumer understanding of natural & organic products, lack of harmonized / uniform standards and proliferation of symbols and logos. The development of European-wide standards such as NaTrue and Cosmos are expected to overcome some of these hurdles.
