Oleochemicals are chemicals derived from naturally occurring feedstock material such as plant, vegetable oil and animal fats. Mostly, oleochemicals refer to the fatty acids and glycerol derived from the splitting of the triglyceride structures of oils and fats. Fatty acids, fatty alcohols and glycerin are some of the major types of oleochemicals. Oleochemicals are used in wide ranging applications in a number of industries including pharmaceutical, personal care products, food & beverages, soaps & detergents and polymers. Oleochemicals are also used in lubricants and greases, textile, rubber, drying oil, paints & coating, surface coatings, biodiesel, bioplastics, and others industries.

The oleochemicals market is mainly driven by increasing demand for environment friendly products. Rising demand for green and sustainable chemicals is another key driver of the global oleochemicals market. Additionally, rising demand for bio-based products from a range of application industries such as soaps & detergents, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage and personal care is also driving the demand for market growth. However, feedstock cost and variable prices of raw materials in the industry is expected to major restraints for oleochemicals market.
