The global Plant Oleic Acid Market continues to gain momentum, with its valuation reaching US$ 234.5 million in 2024. According to the latest industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9%, reaching approximately US$ 312.7 million by 2030. This steady growth is fueled by increasing consumer preference for plant-derived ingredients across food, cosmetics, and industrial applications, supported by broader sustainability trends and regulatory shifts toward natural products.
Plant Oleic Acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid primarily extracted from olive, sunflower, and palm oils, serves as a versatile ingredient. Its applications range from replacing saturated fats in food products to serving as a key emollient in skincare formulations. The rising demand for clean-label and bio-based solutions continues to drive innovation, with manufacturers investing in sustainable sourcing and production methods.
