Menthol Price Trend Q4 2025

Throughout Q4’25, the prices of Menthol recorded a firm and gradually increasing trend, largely due to the support received from the demand and supply dynamics. In the case of India, the market depicted consistent month-on-month increases throughout the period. The demand for the product from the oral care segment, pharmaceuticals, confectionery, and personal care segments was healthy and helped sustain the demand situation.

In the case of supply, the production situation was normal throughout the period. However, the supply situation was not very high since the supply was regulated and controlled. The buying strategy adopted was cautious, and the purchases made did not include bulk buying. The purchases made were entirely based on the requirements. Even though the buying strategy was cautious and controlled, the prices depicted an increasing trend throughout the period.

In Asia, especially in key manufacturing hubs, strong domestic output helped maintain market balance. Export activity remained steady, while seasonal factors and raw material trends had a mild influence on sentiment. In North America, demand from healthcare and consumer goods sectors supported stable market conditions, with no major supply concerns reported. Overall, Q4’25 reflected a stable-to-firm Menthol market, where balanced fundamentals prevented sharp volatility but supported gradual price improvement.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, Menthol prices are likely to remain stable in the near-term given the steady demand and controlled supply.

When we started our Betaine manufacturing operations in Brazil, we were struggling to identify suppliers and benchmark our procurement costs vs other players already in the market.

The third quarter of 2025 saw menthol markets move steadily upward through July, strengthen further in August, and maintain momentum into September.

This firming trend reflected supply tightening from major production regions, particularly as Indian manufacturers faced severe export disruptions due to intensified international trade barriers.

The quarter presented an unusual market situation where rising values did not benefit producers. Export-oriented businesses encountered order cancellations and shipment delays, leading to inventory buildups despite higher market levels.

Many manufacturers struggled with reduced profitability as elevated production costs squeezed margins, even as overall market values climbed.

Regulatory developments in early September added another layer of complexity. Policy reforms restructured tax frameworks for natural menthol products, while concurrent regulatory shifts in key consuming markets influenced demand patterns. These changes, combined with constrained supply flows and operational challenges in traditional production hubs, supported the quarter's price firmness but raised sustainability concerns across the industry.
