Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil Market To Reach $53,282.1 Million By 2030

Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil Market Growth & Trends

The global hydrogenated vegetable oil market size is anticipated to reach USD 53,282.1 million by 2030 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR 7.3% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is poised for sustained growth, driven by diverse applications across industries, regulatory shifts promoting healthier formulations, and technological innovations enhancing product quality. As consumer preferences continue to evolve towards health and sustainability, the market is expected to adapt and expand accordingly.

The global hydrogenated vegetable oil industry is growing steadily, fueled by its functional benefits across food, cosmetics, and personal care industries. In food processing, they enhance texture, mouthfeel, and shelf life in products like margarine, snacks, and baked goods due to their semi-solid form and oxidative stability. In cosmetics, they act as emollients and stabilizers in lotions, creams, lipsticks, and bath products, offering skin-conditioning and smooth application. Their broad compatibility with active ingredients makes them suitable for advanced formulations targeting hydration and skin barrier repair.

The renewable energy sector is also driving demand, especially with hydrotreated vegetable oil gaining traction as a low-emission, second-generation biofuel. With global decarbonization goals and government support for clean energy, it is emerging as a sustainable diesel alternative. These diverse applications supported by innovations in hydrogenation processes highlight their strategic value in both product development and environmental sustainability.

The unfractionated segment dominated the market with a 45.6% revenue share in 2024, driven by its broad use in food processing due to its complete triglyceride profile, which ensures superior oxidative stability and prolonged shelf life. Concurrently, the Fractionated segment is gaining momentum, owing to its ability to deliver tailored fat compositions with precise melting points, enhancing product functionality. This makes it particularly valuable in high-performance applications such as premium confectionery, pharmaceutical formulations, and advanced cosmetic products. As demand grows for both versatile and function-specific ingredients, manufacturers are increasingly investing in fractionation technologies to meet evolving performance requirements across sectors without compromising on quality or sustainability.

In 2024, the Asia Pacific region dominated the global market, accounting for a revenue share of 36.2%. This growth is attributed to the region's robust food processing industry, increasing demand for sustainable energy sources, and the abundant availability of feedstock-like palm and soybean oils. The region's commitment to renewable energy and sustainable practices further propels the market.

Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil Market Report Highlights

• The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness substantial growth in the hydrogenated vegetable oil industry. Rapid industrialization, urbanization, and the expanding food processing industry in countries such as China, India, and Japan are driving the demand for hydrogenated vegetable oils. In addition, the region's growing awareness of health and sustainability is contributing to market growth.

• Advancements in extraction and purification technologies are significantly elevating the quality, functionality, and cost-efficiency of hydrogenated vegetable oils. Enhanced processing methods now offer improved taste, oxidative stability, and extended shelf life. Moreover, the development of low-trans-fat hydrogenated oils aligns with evolving regulatory standards and health-conscious consumer demand, reinforcing their relevance across food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and other applications.

• However, market dynamics remain sensitive to fluctuations in raw material prices, particularly palm, soybean, and sunflower oils, which can impact production costs and pricing strategies globally.

• In April 2025, Bunge and Repsol announced a strategic collaboration to expand renewable fuel production in Europe using intermediate crops like camelina and safflower as feedstock for hydrotreated vegetable oil. The initiative aims to reduce emissions by up to 90% compared to diesel, leveraging novel crops to diversify feedstock sources and strengthen Europe's low-carbon fuel supply chain.
