The tallow market size is projected to reach US$ 7.65 billion in 2023 to US$ 11.41 billion by 2031. It is estimated to register a CAGR of 5.1% from 2023 to 2031.
Tallow is used by various end-use industries such as food & beverages, personal care, home care, biofuel, lubrication, and animal feed owing to its varied benefits. In the food & beverage industry, tallow has potential uses in numerous procedures, including shallow frying, deep frying, grilling, poaching, and baking. As compared to vegetable oils such as canola oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, and peanut oil, tallow has become a potential medium for frying. It possesses the highest smoke point than other frying media. Also, it remains constant at high temperatures by conveying a more desirable flavor and crispiness to fried foods than other vegetable oils. Additionally, beef tallow comprises a balanced ratio of saturated and unsaturated fats, making it an ideal substitute for oils with higher levels of unhealthy trans fats. Thus, tallow is significantly used for food and beverage applications.
Tallow is also used in producing soaps, candles, and skincare products. Its moisturizing features make it a preferred ingredient in skincare formulations, while its capability to develop a steady lather improves the quality of soaps. Beef tallow's moisturizing and emollient properties have garnered attention from the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Further, tallow is significantly used for animal feed and pet food products as it has various nutritional component such as Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, Vitamin E, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) that has inherent anti-inflammatory properties, oleic acid (omega 9), and palmitic acid. In animal feed industry, tallow is majorly used in poultry and pork feed.
Based on end-use industry, the tallow market is divided into food & beverages, personal care & cosmetics, lubricants, biofuel, animal nutrition, and others. The biofuel segment held a larger share of the market in 2023. Tallow is an increasingly attractive choice as a renewable feedstock for fuel producers attributed to its abundant availability, high cetane number, and comparatively low-cost offering. It has a high smoke point of about 420-degree Fahrenheit or 215-degree Celsius which makes it ideal for the production of slow-burning and long-lasting biofuel. In addition, the sustainable and biodegradable properties make it suitable for the production of biofuels substituting traditional, fossil fuels across the globe. Such factors propel the demand for tallow in the fuel industry.
