Report Code: FBR 0311 Report Format: PDF + Excel

Solid Fats Market Overview

Solid Fats Market size is estimated to reach $1.2 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Solid fats change into solid at room temperature. They are derived principally from animal foods and can also be prepared from vegetable oils by way of the dehydrogenation process. Some typical examples of solid fats include lard and shortening. Coconut oil is 100% fat, 80-90% of which is saturated fat. This provides it with a robust texture at cold or room temperatures. Fat includes tinier molecules termed fatty acids, and there are numerous kinds of saturated fatty acids in coconut oil. The fat in liquid milk is solid fat. Milk fat is solid at room temperature. However, it is suspended in liquid milk by the process of homogenization. Typically, palm oil includes nearly 50% saturated fatty acids, 40% monounsaturated fatty acids, and 10% polyunsaturated fatty acids. Palm oil and its constituents are increasingly utilized in foods like cooking oils, margarine, shortenings, and confectionery products. Typically, liquid fats are derived from plant oils and are unsaturated fats. Olive, canola, corn, soybean, safflower, and sesame oils all are derived from plants. Rapeseed oil is soaring in unsaturated fats and vitamins E and K. It includes a beneficial ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fats, which can positively affect heart health.

The surging intake of baked products like cakes and pastries including solid fats and with coconut oil as a novel constituent is set to drive the Solid Fats Market. The elevated utilization of lard as biodiesel feedstock in countries like Germany and the U.S. is set to propel the growth of the Solid Fats Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Solid Fats Market Drivers

Surging Applications Of Coconut Oil Are Projected To Drive The Growth Of Solid Fats Market:

Coconut oil is derived from the kernel of matured coconuts cultivated from coconut palm and is soaring in saturated fats. Coconut oil is a typical edible oil in some nations. Any kind of coconut oil is good for baking applications owing to fats being solid at room temperature. This makes coconut oil perfect for application in baked goods like vegan cookies and pie crusts, where the application of solid fat assists in the development of a light and soft product. Coconut oil is utilized as a cooking fat, hair oil, body oil, and industrial oil. Saturated Fatty Acids (SFAs) in coconut oil raise serum HDL cholesterol greater than LDL cholesterol to provide a more favorable lipid profile compared to dietary carbohydrates. Currently, it has been demonstrated that displacing high-PUFA vegetable oils by 75% with coconut oil in the diet of broilers is related to a decreased fat deposition and boosts lipoprotein lipase, hepatic lipase, and total lipase actions, thereby influencing favorably lipid profile. The surging applications of coconut oil are therefore fuelling the growth of the Solid Fats Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Soaring Applications Of Palm Oil Are Expected To Boost The Demand Of Solid Fats:

One portion size of 14 g of Palm Oil includes 120 calories. Furthermore, it includes total fat of 14 g with the daily value of 18% of the daily value with saturated fat of 6.7 g constituting 34% of the daily value. The four chief conventional applications of palm oil in food products are for cooking/frying oil, shortenings, and margarine and confectionary fats. Palm oil is utilized favorably in both solid fat products and in the liquid cooking oil sector specifically in industrial frying uses. It provides numerous technical properties desirable in food applications, like resistance to oxidation, which contributes towards the lengthier shelf life of end products. Palm oil is perfectly suited for application as a constituent in shortenings and margarine owing to the existence of 20 – 22% solid fat content (SFC) at 20°C, which assists in the formulation of fat products with a plastic range. The soaring applications of palm oil are therefore driving the growth of the Solid Fats Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Solid Fats Market Challenges

Disadvantages Of Coconut Oil Are Hampering The Growth Of The Solid Fats Market:

One tablespoon of coconut oil includes 13.5 grams of total fat. Every gram of fat is equivalent to 9 calories. Therefore, one tablespoon of coconut oil includes 120 calories. Furthermore, there is 0g of protein, 14 g of fat of which 12 g is saturated, 1 g is monounsaturated and 0.5 g of polyunsaturated. There is 0 mg of cholesterol. Coconut oil offers no fiber and little to nil vitamins or minerals. Coconut oil is 100% fat. The medium-chain triglycerides in coconut oil can navigate the gut lining simply and effortlessly. However, they can also pull across toxins (termed endotoxin or LPS) from the bacteria in the gut. When someone acquires a bad infection and is hospitalized, his/her gut integrity breaks down and begins to discharge tiny quantities of these toxins to the immune system encircling the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This brings about a complete cascade of inflammation, and numerous times need powerful antibiotics and steroids to remove mentioned inflammation. It turns out that a side effect of partaking in great quantities of coconut oil is that the triglycerides can bring about identical inflammation. These issues are thus hampering the growth of the Solid Fats Market.
