Description

List of Tables

The linseed oil market size is expected to reach USD 6.32 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Linseed Oil Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Application Type (Pharmaceuticals, Flooring, Cosmetics, Coating & Paints, Processed Food, and Others), Production Process Type, Form Type, and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) - Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Linseeds or flaxseeds, the thin, yellow, or brown seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), have recently gained popularity as a superfood. The seeds are used in breakfast and snack seed mixes. Linseed oil contains an abundance of nutrients, including omega fatty acids and fats.

Linseeds and linseed oil are used sparingly in the food industry compared to a variety of other industrial applications. The oil is widely used as an ingredient in paints, varnishes, and a variety of industrial products. It serves as a carrier in paint formulations, the additional characteristics that make the paints more appealing and improve the product quality.

As linseed oil provides omega-3 fatty acids, it is used in a variety of products such as moisturizers, skin and hair care products, and exfoliating creams. The changing consumer perception of natural ingredients, as a result of increased awareness about the adverse effects of chemical additives, is driving the linseed oil market growth. Consumers' increased awareness of healthier diets and omega-3-related benefits in linseed oil is expected to boost the global linseed oil market demand. Farmers are increasingly choosing linseed crops in rotational cropping systems due to the rising demand for linseeds and their oils. It contributes to the control or reduction of soil-borne root diseases.

Leading companies are increasingly pursuing mergers and acquisitions and joint venture strategies to increase market share, expand their global reach, and improve their product offerings. Many businesses use investment and expansion strategies to boost output and enter emerging markets.

Key Highlights of Linseed Oil Market Report

Based on application type, the paints & coatings segment dominated the linseed oil market revenue share in 2024. The dominance of the segment is driven by the rising demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly paints and coatings.

Based on production process type, the solvent extraction method dominates the market owing to lower prices and ease in the availability of solvents required for the solvent extraction process.

Asia Pacific dominated the linseed oil market share in 2024, owing to continuous construction spending and increasing demand from countries such as China, India, and Indonesia, as well as the presence of numerous manufacturers in the region.

The North America market is expected to experience significant growth during the forecast period. The diet of Americans lacks adequate amounts of omega-3 fatty acids, which can be obtained by consuming linseed oil as a salad dressing or in a smoothie.

Gustav Heess GmbH; Natural Factors Inc.; Cargill, Inc.; Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) Company; Granovita; Natrol LLC Krishi Oils Limited (KOL); and Henry Lamotte Oils GmbH are among the leading players in the linseed oil market.
