Product Insights

Soy oil was the largest product segment of NOPs with a total share of 36.03% of the global demand in 2015. Currently, the majority of commercially available NOPs are soy oil based with highest market penetration. Additionally, soy oil has been gaining popularity in food industry due to low cholesterol content.

Castor oil is one of the most promising natural oil polyols due to the presence of hydroxyl groups in the molecular structure; this makes manufacturing of finished products highly cost efficient and involves the least modification. Castor oil is second most preferred NOP source and is projected to witness the highest growth over the coming years.

Palm oil derived polyols are estimated to register significant growth over the forecast period. Advancements in extraction techniques coupled with increasing acreages of castor and palm particularly in South East Asia is expected to have a positive impact on the supply of natural oils over the forecast period.
