Coco Ampho Diacetate (CADA) Prices, Demand and Supply Overview

The United States paid the most for coco ampho diacetate in Q3 2026: USD 3,730/MT, up 0.8% from USD 3,700/MT in Q2. Strong demand for baby care and clean beauty products and a reliance on imports keep American prices above the other three markets. Worldwide, the average rose 1.0% to USD 3,168/MT from USD 3,138/MT, mostly because coconut oil steadied and brands restocked. What about Q4 2026? We expect a global average somewhere in the USD 3,062-3,318/MT range, with coconut oil, personal care demand and brand restocking doing most of the work.

Coco ampho diacetate (CADA) is a mild amphoteric surfactant made from coconut fatty acids. It is used in baby shampoos, facial cleansers, body washes and sulphate-free formulas, where it lowers irritation and improves foam. Prices follow coconut oil, then the cost of the other reagents, plant operating rates and demand from personal care brands.

China and Europe make most of the world's supply, India produces for its own personal care market, and the United States imports a large share. Coconut oil traded near USD 2,000 per tonne CIF Rotterdam in August, well below its 2025 peaks, and mild cleansers sold at a premium to standard surfactants throughout 2026.

Coco Ampho Diacetate (CADA) Price Forecast for 2026

Prices should hold close to current levels with a slight upward bias. Coconut oil has stopped falling, brands restock mild cleansers before the holidays, and demand for sulphate-free products keeps growing. Year on year, the global average has moved from USD 3,270/MT to USD 3,168/MT, a decrease of 3.1%.

For Q4, the risks are balanced. What could push prices higher? A rebound in coconut oil, higher reagent costs or strong holiday orders would lift prices. What could pull them lower? Further falls in copra and coconut oil, destocking by brands or cheaper imports would lower prices.

Region 2026 Price Range (USD/MT) Outlook
Global Average 3,062 - 3,318 Steady coconut oil and mild-cleanser demand
China 2,473 - 2,679 Export demand and stable coconut oil
India 2,705 - 2,931 Baby care and personal care growth
Germany 3,473 - 3,763 Sulphate-free demand supports European prices
United States 3,599 - 3,899 Clean beauty demand keeps prices highest
