Global Fatty Alcohols Market Definition

Fatty alcohols are produced from fatty acids and are a group of organic compounds. Fatty alcohols are biodegradable and offer the same application as petrochemicals. Moreover, they are less in cost and an excellent alternative to petrochemicals. Growing the supply of sustainable raw materials in the form of oilseed is expected to impact fatty alcohol production positively. This is further expected to offer a wide range of downstream applications, thus taking a market penetration peak. Significant sources of fatty alcohols include safflower oil, rapeseed oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, tall oil, palm oil, and beef tallow.

Fatty alcohols are used as emulsifiers, catalytic hydrogenation, and emollients in cosmetics and beauty products. The global expansion in hygienic product demand and surging consumer awareness is anticipated to hike the personal care industry and fuel the growth of the Fatty Alcohols Market. Expanding oleyl alcohol, echolocation, octadecenoic, natural emulsifiers, and surfactants demand in the soaps and detergents manufacturing will boost demand for fatty alcohols over the forecast years. Fatty alcohols are also used in plasticizers, which are used in plastics to improve physical-mechanical properties.

Global Fatty Alcohols Market Overview

The rising concerns regarding the effect of petrochemicals on the environment have fueled the use of bio-based, sustainable chemicals. To minimize dependency on petrochemicals and reduce its carbon footprint, the industry has switched its focus towards creating biodegradable products and base chemicals through bio-based raw materials. Various regulations from regulatory agencies about the environmental risks associated with petrochemical-based products are expected to enhance the growth of the global market for fatty alcohol. Compared to traditionally utilized mechanical systems, these new variants are subject to enhanced horsepower levels and a more accurate and precise current flow.

Other factors, such as the introduction of favorable government policies to track the levels of carbon emissions into the environment and the surging consumer expenditure capacities, are estimated to drive the global Fatty Alcohols Market in the future. The rising increase in hygiene product needs and hiked consumer awareness will propel the personal care sector over the forecast period. A change in consumer preference and choices towards bio-ingredient-based product demand due to growing awareness of heavy toxicity caused by petrochemical products is projected to conquer personal care product demand. These factors are, in turn, responsible for the exponential growth of fatty alcohol demand in the personal care industry.
