According to the report, the global coconut oil market is estimated to be valued at USD 5.7 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 7.4 billion by 2027, recording a CAGR of 5.5%, in terms of value. An increase in awareness regarding the various benefits of coconut oil compared to its synthetic counterparts has resulted in an upsurge in the demand for coconut oil over the past few years. This is attributed to the increase in awareness of consumers regarding the risks associated with products containing harsh chemicals, and preservatives. Major market players have been investing significantly in R&D to boost production to cater to changing consumer preferences.
By product type, the virgin segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period
Based on product type, the virgin segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period. Virgin coconut oil has more aroma and taste of the coconut compared to RBD oil. It has many advantages, which include the health benefits from the retained vitamins and antioxidants, the antimicrobial and antiviral activity from the lauric acid components, and its easy digestibility due to the presence of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA).
The wet process involves the use of raw coconut instead of dried copra. The coconut’s protein content produces an oil and water emulsion, which leads to a process of separating the emulsion to collect only the oil. This process uses techniques such as centrifuges or pre-treatments that apply cold, heat, acids, salts, enzymes, electrolysis, shock waves, or steam distillation. Sometimes, there is a combination of these processes. The wet coconut source is used to manufacture virgin coconut oil, which is widely used in cosmeceutical products.
By application, the cosmeceutical segment is forecasted to account for the second-largest market share
Coconut oil has a wide range of applications in cosmetics & personal care products. RBD coconut oil is particularly used in manufacturing soaps as it helps in better lathering. It is a great ingredient to add hardness to soap bars. Coconut oil is used as a replacement for mineral oil in moisturizers and it also has antiseptic effects. Virgin coconut oil has been widely used for the preparation of hair oil. It hydrates and softens the hair. The presence of fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals in the VCO nourish and restore the hair naturally.
By nature, the organic segment is anticipated to grow at higher CAGR during the review period
Due to the increasing demand for organic products worldwide, the demand for organic coconut oil is also increasing. This drives the growth of the organic coconut oil segment. Key players operating in the coconut oil market are also supporting farmers to grow coconuts organically by providing proper knowledge and helping them get certified for their produce.
The European region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
