Oleochemicals Market to Witness an Outstanding Growth by 2028

Oleochemicals Market to Witness an Outstanding Growth by 2028
vakhas sayyad | 08.08.2018


Oleochemicals are chemicals mainly derived from natural raw materials such as, soybean oil, linseed oil, vegetable oil, castor oil, animal oils & fats and, also from petrochemical feedstock. Oleochemicals in general have low toxicity as compared to petrochemicals. Oleochemicals are gaining popularity as they can be substituted for the petroleum-based products. Oleochemicals are biodegradable and considered to be environment friendly. Oleochemicals come under green products category and are used extensively in a wide range of applications and several emerging applications, namely, personal care, cosmetics, soaps & detergents, food additives among, others. With the rising environmental concerns, oleochemicals also find applications in the growing paints and coatings industry, rubber industry, paper, animal feed, lubricants and printing industry.

Global Oleochemicals Market: Region-wise Outlook

Growing demand for bio-degradable products in food and beverage industry is fueling the demand for oleochemicals globally. In regards to region, strict regulations in Europe against genetically modified (GM) food products drives the demand of oleochemicals market. Asia-Pacific is anticipated to dominate the oleochemicals market in terms of both value and volume. The increase in plantation activities in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines, in order to manufacture various cosmetics and personal care products from oleochemicals, is projected to boost the demand for the oleochemicals market in the region.

Global Oleochemicals Market: Segmentation

On the basis of type, the global oleochemicals market can be segmented into:

Fatty acid
Fatty alcohol
Methyl Ester
Glycerol
Others

Global Oleochemicals Market: Dynamics

The primary driver for the oleochemicals market is the food industry. Advancement in processed foods, marketing strategies of companies, and consumer awareness in emerging economies is driving the food industry globally and therefore, the increase in demand for biodegradable products is anticipated to influence the growth of oleochemicals market throughout the forecast period. Rising demand for oleochemicals from natural raw materials is another factor driving the oleochemicals market. Biodegradability of products has become a quite popular trend these days owing to the stringent regulations focused towards maintaining product quality and health risk which promotes the use of natural raw material derived products such as oleochemicals. This, in turn, drives the global oleochemicals market throughout the forecast period.

In addition to this, the decreasing dependency on petrochemical feedstock and the expanding applications of oleochemicals in replacing petroleum-based products is projected to create opportunity paths for the oleochemicals market. Opportunities for the oleochemicals market lies within its growing use in cosmetics and personal care products, pharmaceuticals, soaps & detergents, food & beverages, polymers among others.

The competition of oleochemicals from other substitutes might be a major threat to the oleochemicals market. Biodiesel products have been showing consistent growth which might create substantial demand for oleochemicals, in turn, decreasing the market growth of oleochemicals. Environmental concerns related to plantations and land availability are other factors hampering the growth of oleochemicals. In addition, the increasing demand for bio-diesel may cause a hike in biodiesel prices and is anticipated to directly affect the overall economics of oleochemicals based products, which might act as a restraining factor for the oleochemicals market.
