TRANSFLUTHRIN MARKET ANALYSIS

Transfluthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide with a short residual effect. Flies, mosquitoes, butterflies, and cockroaches are all eliminated by it. Transfluthrin is a highly flammable liquid that can be used as a contact and inhalation agent.

The global transfluthrin market is estimated to surpass US$ 218.5 Mn by the end of 2028, in terms of revenue, exhibiting at a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period (2021 to 2028).

Drivers

As a result of globalization and rising incomes, consumers are willing to spend more on household insecticides. The global transfluthrin market is growing because consumers' disposable income has expanded, allowing them to spend more on products other than basic necessities. Increased occurrences of stagnant water also contribute to an increase in mosquito breeding, making transfluthrin more necessary for effective mosquito control. Increased awareness of sustainable environmental sanitation utilizing household pesticides is also driving the global transfluthrin market growth. People are becoming more aware of the risks connected with vector-borne diseases, which is projected to affect the dynamics of the global transfluthrin market in a positive way throughout the forecast period.

Asia-Pacific dominated the global transfluthrin market in 2020, accounting for 55.7% share, in terms of revenue, followed by North America, and Europe, respectively. As a result of increase in globalization and rising incomes of consumers throughout the world.

Market Restraints

Global transfluthrin market growth is expected to be hampered by decreasing demand for transfluthrin insecticide. Humans and other mammals are not particularly harmed by transfluthrin. In susceptible individuals, long-term acute exposure, on the other hand, may cause skin irritation and other breathing problems. As a result, the market for Transfluthrin may be restricted. This resulted in a shift in the market toward insecticides that are less hazardous, such as neem oil insecticide and diatomaceous earth insecticide.

Market Opportunities

The global transfluthrin market would be driven by transfluthrin's high effectiveness. There have been numerous studies demonstrating transfluthrin's lethal and repelling capabilities against mosquitoes. For instance, according to a 2007 study by Dong-Kyu Lee of the Department of Health and Environment, in unventilated and ventilated screened room conditions, the lethal efficacy of three vaporizing insecticides – 0.6% transfluthrin and 0.6% metofluthrin in portable battery-powered blowers and 2.5% bioallethrin in electric mats – Transfluthrin and metofluthrin were very toxic to the mosquitos.  Mosquitoes exposed to transfluthrin and metofluthrin in portable blowers died at a rate of 95% to 100% in both room conditions; this was a >2.4-fold higher mortality rate than mosquitoes exposed to bioallethrin in electric mats under the same conditions.

Market Trends

Increased threats from infectious diseases such as malaria, as well as a higher focus on insect control measures by local and national government agencies, are expected to move the global transfluthrin market forward. Insecticides used at home are becoming safer and more environmentally friendly, with synthetic pyrethroids being used more frequently in the preceding years. For instant, in October 2020, according to new studies from the University of Notre Dame, a spatial repellent solution designed by SC Johnson could decrease dengue and Zika infections by 34%.
