The increasing prevalence of chronic conditions like arthritis fuels the demand for methyl salicylate. According to a report by Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention, between 2019 to 2021 in the United States (NHIS) 5.4% of adults 18 to 44 years old reported arthritis. Among adults aged 45 to 64 years, one-in-four (26.0%) reported doctor-diagnosed arthritis.

In the food industry, methyl salicylate is used as a flavoring agent in low concentration in different food products and beverages, further contributing to its market growth. The expansion of food and beverage industry, along with innovative food flavoring practices is a significant driver for the demand for methyl salicylate.

Methyl Salicylate Market Trends:

Rising Demand in Pharmaceutical Industry

The pharmaceutical sector is witnessing a robust increase in the demand for methyl salicylate mainly driven by its effective analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Methyl salicylate is a key ingredient in various pain relief products like creams, ointments, and patches catering especially to those suffering from chronic pain conditions like arthritis and muscle aches. According to an analysis of Global Burden of Disease (GBD) in 2019, data showed that approximately 1.71 billion people globally live with musculoskeletal conditions, including low back pain, neck pain, fractures, other injuries, osteoarthritis, amputation, and rheumatoid arthritis.  The increase in the prevalence of these diseases underscores the demand for pain relief products hence propelling the methyl salicylate market.

Expansion in Emerging Economies

The expansion of methyl salicylate into various emerging markets is significantly driven by the economic growth in the regions like APAC, Latin America and some parts of Africa. As these economies are growing there is an increment in disposable income and healthcare spending which leads to a higher demand for pharmaceutical and personal care products. The healthcare sector’s growth is coupled with rising awareness of pain management solutions and natural cosmetic products further propelling the demand for methyl salicylate. This trend provides an excellent opportunity for market players to tap into the consumer bases adapt local preferences and expand their global footprint in these dynamic developing markets.
