Report Overview

Spherical cellulose beads are biodegradable microspheres derived from cellulose, a natural and renewable polymer typically sourced from plant fibers. These beads are characterized by their spherical shape and are widely recognized for their eco-friendly properties, serving as a sustainable alternative to conventional microbeads that may contribute to environmental pollution. The production process involves transforming cellulose into spherical particles, resulting in a versatile material with applications in various industries. Spherical cellulose beads find use in cosmetics, personal care products, and industrial processes where their biodegradability and renewable origin are valued. In cosmetic formulations, they are often employed as gentle exfoliants, providing a smooth texture without the environmental concerns associated with synthetic microbeads. As global awareness of sustainability grows, the demand for spherical cellulose beads is expected to increase, driven by a shift toward environmentally conscious practices and regulatory measures aimed at reducing the use of non-biodegradable microplastics.

The global Spherical Cellulose Bead market size is projected to grow from US$ 72.7 million in 2024 to US$ 122 million in 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.0% from 2024 to 2030.
