Body-Worn Insect Repellent Market Highlights

Global Body-Worn Insect Repellent Market size in 2021 was valued at approximately USD 707.5 Million and is projected to record a CAGR of 7.60% between 2022 and 2030. The demand for body-worn insect repellents is increasing with an increase in the number of viral, infectious vector-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue, chikungunya and many others around the world. The rising number of outdoor activities has also resulted in a surge in the demand for body-worn insect repellent products. Additionally, owing to the rising consumer preference for healthy and chemical-free products, key players in the market are now focusing on the introduction of chemical-free insect repellent products. For instance, in 2020, Mother Sparsh Baby Care Pvt Ltd., an India-based insect repellent product manufacturer introduced a natural insect repellent product that contains 100% natural ingredients such as citronella oil, lemongrass oil, eucalyptus oil, and many more. Therefore, the consumers’ inclination towards herbal and chemical-free products is anticipated to create new opportunities for the key global players, thereby resulting in the growth of the body-worn insect repellent market.
