Israel`s citronella oil import market in 2024 continued to be dominated by key exporters such as India, China, Germany, Ireland, and Spain. Despite a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of -8.06% from 2020 to 2024 and a further decline in growth rate of -9.53% from 2023 to 2024, the market remained concentrated with a high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI). This suggests a competitive landscape with these top exporting countries maintaining a significant share of the market, highlighting the importance of strategic positioning and differentiation for players in this sector.

By 2027, the Citronella Oil market in Israel is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 0.01%, as part of an increasingly competitive Europe region, where Germany remains at the forefront, supported by United Kingdom, France, Italy and Russia, driving innovations and market adoption across sectors.

Citronella oil is derived from various species of the lemongrass plant and is known for its insect repellent properties. In Israel, the citronella oil market experiences demand primarily from the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and aromatherapy sectors. With a growing preference for natural and organic products, citronella oil has gained popularity as a safer alternative to synthetic insect repellents. Israel producers are investing in research and development to explore new applications and expand the utility of citronella oil beyond traditional insect repellency, driving growth opportunities in niche markets.
In Israel, the citronella oil market is influenced by factors such as the growing demand for natural insect repellents, rising concerns about vector-borne diseases, and the expanding aromatherapy industry. Citronella oil is widely used as a natural alternative to synthetic insect repellents due to its effectiveness against mosquitoes and other insects. With increasing awareness about the harmful effects of chemical-based repellents, there is a growing preference for natural and eco-friendly alternatives like citronella oil. Moreover, the rising popularity of aromatherapy for relaxation and stress relief drives the demand for citronella oil in Israel wellness sector, further boosting market growth.
In the Israel Citronella Oil Market, one of the primary challenges is the limited availability of suitable land for cultivating citronella grass. Citronella oil, derived from citronella grass, is valued for its insect-repellent properties and its applications in aromatherapy and perfumery. However, the cultivation of citronella grass requires specific climatic conditions and soil types, which may not be abundant in Israel. This limitation can restrict the domestic production of citronella oil, leading to a reliance on imports and higher production costs.
The production and sale of citronella oil in Israel are likely regulated by government agencies to ensure adherence to standards related to purity and safety. This may include obtaining licenses or permits for cultivation, extraction, and distribution.
