Corn Oil Market Trends

• 
  

  Diversified usage of corn oil in various industries is driving the market growth

  
  

Over time, there has been an increase in the product's use in a number of end-use industries, including the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, industrial, and food and beverage sectors. It serves as a vehicle for therapeutic compounds in pharmaceuticals. It functions as a disintegrant, allowing pills or capsules to crumble into manageable pieces that may be quickly digested and absorbed by the body. It aids in the production of soap, hair care products, and face and body powder. Because it contains saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids including linolenic, linoleic, and oleic acid, people typically use it as cooking oil. These acids provide a number of advantages including lowering blood pressure, reducing inflammation, and excess cholesterol. Inks, fabrics, soaps, rust inhibitors, rubber substitutes, and pesticides are among the products it is used to make in modest quantities. Using oil to massage into a dog's coat makes it look better, and feeding it to horses to alleviate dull coat issues are other uses for it in pet care. As a result, the product's numerous uses fuel the expansion of the global market.

A domestically generated alternative fuel called ethanol is created from corn oil. The process of turning corn into ethanol produces distillers corn oil (DCO), which is a byproduct. Additionally, it is marketed mostly as a feedstock for biodiesel. Oil can be extracted from liquid streams in a maize ethanol production using mechanical methods that operate under centrifugal force. It must first be separated from the germ, though, through milling or crushing. Therefore, achieving the best extraction for ethanol producers becomes essential. As a result, key participants in the business are creating cutting-edge technologies to boost production effectiveness. For instance, DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences (DuPont), a business that develops sustainable solutions for the food, health, pharmaceutical, and biotech industries, introduced DuPont OPTIMASH DCO+ in June 2019. The product, a thermostable protease with a pending patent, aids in releasing the oil from the protein and fibre matrix of the maize kernel. The product aids distillers producing ethanol in increasing productivity without sacrificing grain quality.

Growing consumer health consciousness has led to an increase in customer desire for maize oil because of its health advantages. Additionally, since disposable incomes have grown, consumers can now put health ahead of product cost. Additionally, the use of renewable energy sources like biofuel has been steadily rising due to growing environmental concerns, depleting oil and natural gas resources, and governments' focus on using cleaner fuels to lower carbon footprint. Although soybean oil is now the main feedstock used in the manufacturing of biofuels, maize oil has also seen a significant increase in utilisation in recent years. This pattern is anticipated to support the global maize oil market's continued expansion. In addition, maize oil has a wide range of other industrial uses besides those for food and biodiesel, including those for soaps, paints, insecticides, textiles, etc. These end-use industries are anticipated to have significant expansion due to rising global population and economic growth in both established and emerging markets, which will favourably affect the demand for maize oil. Thus, driving the Corn Oil market revenue.

Corn Oil Type Insights

The Corn Oil Market segmentation, based on type, includes edible and non-edible. Edible segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2022. This is explained by the fact that the product has a variety of medicinal benefits that make it one of the preferred edible oils for frying. The oil has a number of health advantages, including bettering heart health, decreasing cholesterol and blood pressure, moisturising properties for the skin, and others. The product has high levels of alpha and gamma tocopherols (vitamin E), which prevent the oil from going rancid, according to the National Library of Medicine. This feature of the product makes it useful for use in cooking oils and salad dressings. Due to its great digestibility and ability to deliver energy and Essential Fatty Acids (EFA), people who suffer from dietary problems like heartburn and bloating like the product. The product is being chosen by customers who prioritise leading healthy lifestyles, which raises demand for it in the edible market.

Corn Oil Application Insights

The Corn Oil Market segmentation, based on application, includes food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics & personal care, animal feed, industrial, and biodiesel. Food & beverage segment dominated the Corn Oil Market in 2022. The product improves food flavour, gives food texture, makes baked goods crispier, and aids in heat conductivity during cooking, all of which are crucial aspects of food preparation. Due to the product's greater smoke point than its replacements, such as canola oil and soybean oil, industrial cooks are using it more frequently. It has a 450° smoke point. Because it has more flavour than other vegetable oils, it is regarded as one of the best oils for deep-frying or shallow-frying in a skillet.
