COVID-19 Impact
The palm
kernel oil and coconut oil based natural fatty acids industry was hampered by
the covid-19 pandemic. The palm kernel oil and coconut oil based natural fatty
acids are used in home & personal care, plastics, and other sectors. The
worldwide disruptions such as manufacturing halt, supply and demand gap, and
logistics disturbances created a negative impact on the market. The home and
personal care sector experienced fall in the growth during initial pandemic
phase. The production of various cosmetic items, skincare, and others were
slowed due to lockdown restrictions, supply chain disruption, workforce
shortages, and unavailability of the raw materials. The supply for home
cleaning and personal care products did not fulfill the demand arising due to
hygiene and cleanliness, thereby leading to fall in the applications for fatty
acids such as soaps, detergents, and others. However, the home and personal
care industry recovered during late pandemic phase, with the recovering
personal care, detergents, and home cleaning product sales. The high demand for
surfactants, cosmetic products, soaps, and others was fulfilled with rising
production and distribution in various retail platforms. According to the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Perfume Association
(CTPA), the sales for the bar soaps increased by around 160% in March 2020 compared
to the same month in the previous year. Thus, with recovering supply and
production for the home and personal care sector, the demand for palm kernel
oil and coconut oil based natural fatty acids also increased during and post
pandemic.

Palm Kernel Oil And Coconut Oil Based Natural Fatty Acids Market Segment Analysis – By Components
By component,
the lauric acid segment holds the largest palm
kernel oil and coconut oil based natural fatty acids market share of over 22% in 2021. The lauric acid has aliphatic chain
of around 4-12 carbon atoms. It constitutes a major composition share in palm
kernel oil of around 48% and around 50% composition in the coconut oil. There is low or no alpha-linolenic acid content in
kernel oil and coconut oil. The beta-oxidation
process breaks the fatty acid and transforms into useful products or energy. The
demand of lauric acid is high for home and personal care sector such as soaps,
detergents, and others. The growing application of lauric acid such as skin
cleansers, shampoos, body wash, and others is driving the growth prospects for
the largest palm kernel oil and coconut oil based natural fatty acids market. The ability to get uniform
distribution in the phospholipid bilayer barrier of membranes makes it better
antioxidants. Furthermore, the demand for lauric acid is also high in
pharmaceuticals, food, plastics, and other sector, thereby leading to high
growth opportunities for the global palm kernel oil and coconut oil
based natural fatty acids market in the coming years.
