Market Definition

Oleochemicals are chemical compounds derived through vegetable fats or oils. The splitting of fats through water-based hydrolysis, alcohol-based hydrolysis, and hydrogenation are some common ways of producing oleochemicals. These chemical compounds have a wide application in industrial manufacturing of personal care, home care, health care, chemicals, textiles, etc.

Market Insights

The Southeast Asia Oleochemicals Market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of around 3.38% in terms of volume during the forecast period, i.e., 2022-27, says MarkNtel Advisors. Owing to the wide application of oleochemicals the Southeast Asia Oleochemicals market has witnessed robust growth during the historical period. Furthermore, the soaring investments & increasing establishment of production units of cosmetic products, chemicals (lubricants, coatings, etc.), pharmaceutical industries, etc., have also boosted the demand for oleochemicals. Moreover, the increasing construction activities in the region are also one of the prominent factors attributing to the growth of local paint manufacturing in Vietnam & Singapore, which, in turn, has further influenced the Southeast Asia Oleochemicals market.

Additionally, the foreign direct investments (FDIs) in the region have also assisted in the development of the market. The key industries that have received a notable amount of FDIs are pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food & beverages, in line with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. During 2019-2020, Nestlé invested more than USD122 million in Indonesia & Malaysia for the expansion of its existing production capacity.

Further, in the same period, Nippon Shokubai and Sinochem invested approximately USD357 million in the establishment & development of acrylic acid & bioplastic in Indonesia & Thailand, respectively. Nevertheless, such financing in the region has implied a considerable growth of the market in the past period as well as a continuous steady increase in the market revenues & volume of oleochemicals in the forthcoming years.

Key Trend in the Market

Oleochemicals Replacing Petroleum Derived Ingredients

Oleochemicals are one of the key materials required by the manufacturers of home & personal care products. These chemicals are considered to have a minimal impact on the human body. Therefore, home & personal care companies are gradually moving towards using natural ingredients, which are safe on human skin while in use, rather than using harsh chemicals. Moreover, the consumer awareness to minimize the use of toxic elements on the skin is also contributing to the demand for all-natural & plant-based soaps & detergents. Therefore, Oleochemicals are emerging as a substitute for petrochemical-derived ingredients used in the personal care industry in the region. Further, Oleochemicals end-users are replacing petroleum-derived products to minimize their carbon footprints.

Impact of Covid-19 on the Southeast Asia Oleochemicals Market

FMCG is one of the most important end-user of the market, however, the market witnessed a marginal dip during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, primarily due to the disruption in the supply chain hampering the logistics of raw materials & finished goods. Furthermore, due to the pandemic, palm oil production has decreased. Eventually, the major disruption in the supply chain at all levels & across all regions impacted the growth of the regional oleochemicals market. However, the market began to recover in the latter half of 2020. The surge in drug & pharmaceutical manufacturing has resulted in an increase in demand for oleochemicals due to the use of oleochemicals in topical & oral medicine as well as drug formulation.

Furthermore, oleochemicals are used as emulsifiers, wetting agents, solubilizers, and cream bases, which are necessary components in the drug manufacturing process. The region has a broadened manufacturing base that has been fulfilling the domestic as well as the export demand. Besides, the growth in the pharmaceutical exports in the region aided in sustaining the oleochemicals market revenues during the pandemic period.
