Market Overview:
Oleo Chemicals, analogous to
petrochemicals are derived from petroleum as well as from plant and animal
fats. These chemicals based on vegetable oils, tallow, and tall oil are used in
an array of applications, ranging from food items, and personal care products
to a variety of industrial applications. Oleo Chemicals are primarily used in
the production of soaps, detergents, and other personal care products. These
chemicals are also used in the production of lubricants, solvents, biodiesel,
and bioplastics.

Besides, these chemicals act as
an essential feedstock material for polymeric resins, especially alkyd which is
then converted into polymeric resins used in the production of devices and
equipment required in the electrical and electronic, automotive, construction,
medical, consumer and industrial sector.
It is that Oleo Chemicals witness
a vast uptake and demand from several end-use industries such as soaps &
detergents, intermediates, coatings, lubricants, and personal care among
others. Which works as a key driving force for the market growth of these
chemicals. Additionally, increasing use of these substrates in the production
of rubber and plastics along with the augmenting demand from automotive &
aerospace sector is escalating the market growth on the global platform.
Acknowledging the massive
traction that market is perceiving currently, Market Research Future (MRFR) in
its recently published study report mentions that the already booming global Oleo
Chemicals Industry is expected to garner further prominence over the assessment
period. The market is estimated to demonstrate a voluminous growth by 2023,
registering a striking CAGR during the estimated period (2017 – 2023).
Additional factors substantiating
the market growth include technological advancement and the rapid urbanization
that is prompting the steady growth of various sectors such as medical,
electronics and automotive among others, growing with the increasing population
and improving economic conditions that are enhancing consumers’ purchasing
power.
On the flip side, fluctuating
prices and demand and supply gap of feedstock necessary to produce these
products are some of the key factors obstructing the market growth. Conversely,
the rising demand for oleochemicals in food & beverage industry, cosmetic
and personal care industry backed by the increased consumer spending in
developed and developing economies is expected to provide impetus to the market
growth to an extent. Also, the increasing automobile production and sales along
with rising consumption of lubricants are estimated to fuel the growth of the
market.

Global Oleo Chemicals Industry
– Regional Analysis
Globally, the Asia Pacific region
accounts for the largest market for oleochemicals. Owing to the ample
availability of cost-competitive raw materials and labor force required to
produce these chemicals, the APAC market is further estimated to post the
highest CAGR during the forecast period, (2017 to 2023).
The demand for oleochemicals is
predicted to upsurge in numerous developed countries of the North America and
Europe due to the high human development index (HDI) figures. However, these
region perceive lack of raw material which is compelling them to import these
chemicals from the South East Asian countries which, in turn, is expected to
provide impetus to the market growth in the APAC region, witnessing hiked-up
prices and demand for oleochemicals.
Furthermore, the increasing
incorporation into the end-use industries such as food & beverages and
soaps & detergents is fostering the market growth in the region. Besides,
the burgeoning automotive sector in some of the APAC countries such as India,
China, Malaysia, Japan, and Thailand is expected to fuel the market growth in
the region, observing the rising unit sales and demand for lubricants.
North America Oleo
Chemicals Market is emerging as another lucrative market, following the
APAC market closely. Attributing to the high consumption potential, increasing
production capacities, and rising economic growth rate especially, the region
is expected to witness a fabulous growth throughout the forecast period.
The augmenting demand for
oleochemicals and the growth in the crude oil production, especially in the US,
is entitling the country as the major contributor to the market growth in the
region, witnessing a significant market growth.
Europe region is too growing as
one of the promising markets for oleo chemicals. Markets in some of the
European countries such as Spain, Russia, France, Germany, Russia, and the UK
is growing significantly owing to the extensive uptake of the product in some
of the well-penetrated end-use industries and substantial investments in
R&D and innovation activities. Resurging economy and the presence of major
automobile manufacturers specifically in Germany are certainly some of the key
driving forces propelling the market growth.
Latin American countries such as
Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia are also estimated to perceive a moderate
growth, with the increasing consumer spending on passenger cars and the
emergence of new technologies and inventions in oleochemicals.
On the other hand, Oleo Chemicals
Industry in the Middle East & Africa is projected to perceive a steady
growth during the forecast period. The growing investments in the field,
especially in some of the GCC countries such as Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and
the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is expected to impact the market growth in the
region positively.
