They are added to skincare products, such as lotions and creams, to impart a luminous effect on the skin. Sometimes, OBAs are used in makeup products to create a bright, youthful appearance by reflecting light off the skin’s surface. The adoption of optical brighteners has been driven by their effectiveness in enhancing the visual appeal of products, particularly in industries where appearance plays a significant role in consumer purchasing decisions.

As industries such as textiles, paper, and detergents continue to evolve, OBAs have become more commonplace. Adopting optical brighteners has been particularly strong in emerging markets such as China, India, and Southeast Asia. These regions have witnessed rapid industrialization and urbanization, increasing production in textiles, paper, and consumer goods. As disposable incomes rise and consumer preferences shift towards higher-quality products, the demand for OBAs in these regions has expanded.

The booming e-commerce sector in Brazil, with expected sales surpassing US$200 billion by 2026, will substantially impact the demand for optical brighteners. As online shopping increases, there will be a surge in demand for packaging materials, textiles, and products that require optical brighteners to enhance their appearance. Brazil’s expanding e-commerce industry also supports the retail and fashion sectors, which rely heavily on optical brighteners to ensure high-quality, visually appealing products. The UAE’s manufacturing sector shows consistent growth, evidenced by the 2.47% increase in the Producer Price Index in Q4 2020.

With more goods being produced for domestic and export markets, the demand for optical brighteners in the UAE is expected to rise. In summary, the rising e-commerce in Brazil, manufacturing growth in the UAE, and the booming beauty industry in Sub-Saharan Africa are all contributing factors that will drive the growth of the market in these regions.
