Global crude tall oil market has been witnessing significant growth owing to wide range of applications across various end-use industries such as construction, automobile, and paints & coatings industries. Crude tall oil is a by-product of the kraft pulping process used by many paper mills. It contains rosin and fatty acids which makes it a versatile raw material. Properties like biodegradability and dispersibility in water and organic solvents has increased its usage in binders, emulsifiers, and other applications. Additionally, efforts towards reducing fossil fuel dependence and focus on bio-based products is further expected to drive the demand for crude tall oil over the forecast period.
Growth in construction sector along with increasing automobile production across emerging economies are some of the major factors expected to drive the growth of global crude tall oil market during the forecast period. However, availability of substitutes like vegetable and palm based chemical products can hamper the market growth. Adoption of bio-based products due to stringent environmental regulations regarding use of petrochemical derivatives is likely to present huge growth opportunities for crude tall oil market in coming years. The global crude tall oil market is driven by factors such as rising paper production across Asia Pacific and Latin America, increasing wood pulp processing activities and affordable availability of pine tree forests as main raw materials. Furthermore, favorable properties of crude tall oil enabling its use as a substitute for various petroleum-based products in chemical, construction and automotive industries is boosting market revenues. However, fluctuating costs of wood logs and pine trees used for pulp extraction act as a major restraining factor. Also, the availability of alternative substitutes at lower costs pose challenges. Industry players are focusing on capacity expansions and new product development to tap opportunities in emerging application areas.
