Oleochemicals Market Dynamics
Driver: Growing demand for sustainable and biodegradable products
Environmental concerns over the use of petrochemicals have led to a shift towards bio-based and sustainable chemicals. The industry is now focusing on developing biodegradable products and base chemicals from bio-based raw materials, aiming to lessen carbon emissions and reliance on petrochemicals. Regulatory bodies like REACH, which monitor environmental risks associated with petrochemical-based products, are backing this trend. Oleochemicals, being biodegradable, serve the same purpose as petrochemicals. Consequently, they are increasingly being used in the production of polymers, surfactants, and lubricants as an alternative to petrochemicals.
Previously, lubricants were primarily produced using petrochemicals. However, the environmental and health risks posed by petrochemical-based lubricants, particularly their degradability upon disposal, have been a concern in recent years. As a result, companies are now producing bio-based lubricants using oleochemicals.
Driver: Growth of major end-use industries
The demand for oleochemical derivatives is steadily increasing due to the rising consumption of personal care, pharmaceutical, and food products. The growth in demand for personal care products is driven by increased disposable income, product innovation, and extensive market penetration. Oleochemicals are commonly found in FMCG products such as soaps, toothpaste, and moisturizing lotions. The demand for these products is on the rise as companies in the personal care industry are maximizing product visibility through online promotions, sweepstakes, and other initiatives in developed regions.
The growth of the personal care industry is also influenced by factors such as the increasing participation of women in various industries, the younger generation’s preference for cosmetic products, the increased use of acne treatment products by teenagers, and growing awareness about sun protection creams and lotions. The demand for male grooming products is also increasing due to growing concerns about skin and hair care among men. These factors collectively contribute to the accelerated growth of the global oleochemicals market. The pharmaceutical industry is growing due to factors such as the increasing prevalence of diseases, improved affordability, and rising healthcare spending. Oleochemicals are extensively used in the freezing and preservation of living tissues like red blood cells and sperms, primarily for laboratory experiments and stem cell preservation. Factors such as significant investments in biotechnology R&D and increasing global awareness of stem cell preservation are propelling the growth of the oleochemicals market.
Restraint: Low profit margins from bio-refineries
The biodiesel industry’s growth, influenced by fluctuating raw material prices, directly affects the production of various oleochemicals, particularly glycerol esters. The global oleochemicals market is currently oversupplied, leading to reduced returns for manufacturers. Moreover, the refining of oleochemicals is a costly process, further impacting manufacturers’ profit margins. Refiners or producers make less than a 5% profit on specialty oleochemical production. This low-profit margin presents a significant challenge for manufacturers or refiners to sustain in the oleochemicals business, thereby acting as a barrier to market expansion in terms of market players. However, the development and adoption of new, optimized production technologies could potentially improve profit margins.
