Latest News- Limonene Market: Food and beverage processing is expected to lead the End-user segment during 2025-2029

The Limonene Market is being driven by Growing demand for limonene in cosmetics industry

The Limonene Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 108.2 million. Limonene, a naturally occurring terpene solvent, offers businesses an eco-friendly alternative to traditional degreasers and solvents such as chlorinated hydrocarbons, chlorofluorocarbons, and other hazardous chemicals. In the paint industry, limonene enhances coating performance by increasing coverage, adherence, and durability. It also conceals substrate colors and produces a glossy sheen. Moreover, it prevents metal surfaces from rusting and effectively removes oil and debris. In the industrial sector, limonene is utilized for degreasing metals prior to painting, in electronics cleaning applications, and in the printing industry. For instance, a leading MRO facility specializing in commercial jet engines transitioned from trichloroethylene-based degreasers to a D-limonene formulation in January 2025. This shift not only improved their environmental footprint but also enhanced their operational efficiency and product quality.
