annually (Leatherhead Food, 2014).
Despite growth in the global additives market, the German food industry constitutes only a small market for resins. For example, the food industry is estimated to account for less than 5% of the market for rosin. Manufacturers only
use resins or their derivatives as additives in small amounts and for very few applications. For example, they use rosin as a glazing agent for chewing gum.Industrial demand for resins from the cosmetics industry
Germany is the leading European market for natural cosmetics, as opposed to cosmetics with mainly synthetic ingredients. In the first half of 2013, the German market for certified natural cosmetics grew by 10%. The expected turnover for that year amounted to €950 million.
The natural trend is the main driver of industrial demand for resins in cosmetics. However, within the cosmetics industry, the use of resins in perfumes shows less growth than other uses.
