[154 Pages] Oleochemicals are used primarily in the personal care industry for manufacturing of various lotions, creams, and so on. Oleochemicals are replacing many petroleum based products as their properties help build a product which is better for the environment and which can be manufactured from renewable raw materials. Major types for oleochemicals include fatty acids, fatty alcohols, glycerin, and others. The market for glycerin is projected to grow at the fastest rate. Fatty acids were observed to dominate the global market by type, for oleochemicals, and were estimated to control around 56.34% of the total oleochemicals consumption by type. The oleochemicals market in terms of size is projected to reach $25.91 billion by 2019, growing at a CAGR of 4.2% between 2014 and 2019.

With the environmental regulations constantly becoming more stringent and the non renewable resources getting depleted, it has paved way to the opportunity for the oleochemicals to enter the market and substitute the conventional petroleum based products being used currently. The factors driving growth in the market are: high demand coming from consumer markets, easy availability of raw materials, and a growing market for green chemicals. The oleochemicals market is expected to experience huge growth due to enormous potential offered by these drivers.

Oleochemicals manufacturers mainly focus on agreements & partnerships to expand their product portfolio for various applications as well as to deepen their regional reach. Expansion into growing markets, such as Asia-Pacific, Brazil, and Middle East could be the key to success for oleochemicals producers.
