Diversification of distribution channels for cosmetic brands such as online shopping, vending machines, television infomercials, spas and home shopping are adding impetus to cosmetics market and consequently boosting growth of limonene industry.

Dipentene market will diversify its growth avenues beyond the cosmetic industry as research has found that chemicals obtained from orange peel could be utilized as a means of breaking the modern world’s reliance on crude oil by being the building blocks in products ranging from plastics to paracetamol. Due to various adverse environmental effects, global industries had been trying to cut down on their dependence on the chemicals and materials that are obtained from fossil fuels, which are rapidly diminishing. As the world is increasing its focus on the development of renewable chemicals from an assortment of sustainable resources such as sugarcane and fatty acids in the production of biofuels, essential oils obtained from waste citrus peels have rapidly come to the forefront as a source that is being investigated with real zest as limonene shares many similarities with the chemicals obtained from fossil fuels.

Though limonene has been recognized as an important component of a bio-based chemical industry it will take the limonene industry considerable time to become a fully commercial means of plastics or polymer production. Issues hindering limonene market include the lack of reliable and greener supply of limonene. As research and development programs exert appreciable focus in bringing petroleum alternatives to the market, it is expected that dipentene industry will massively profit from such endeavors.
