Southeast Asia Oleochemicals Market


Description: Slides 1 to 120 provide the current and future trends of the oleochemicals market for Southeast Asia from 2008 to 2015. In this study, the base year is 2008, and the forecast period is from 2009 to 2015. The study comprises of oleochemicals such as fatty acids, fatty alcohol and refined glycerin. The fatty acid and fatty alcohol markets are currently at its mature stage. There is a growing selectivity of purchase among buyers; they prefer cost-competitive oleo-based chemicals over fatty acids and fatty alcohol derived from crude oil that are more expensive. The refined glycerin is at the growth stage where there are growing adopters of refined glycerin, as witnessed by its increasing application in end-user markets.

This Frost & Sullivan research service titled Southeast Asia Oleochemicals Market analyzes factors accelerating and restraining adoption. The market is assessed on industry challenges, market drivers, and restraints. The research provides critical success factors and market outlook to study the market trends and its applications in the years to come. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following markets: fatty acids, fatty alcohol, and refined glycerin.

Market Overview

Oleochemicals Market Focuses on Further Downstream Activities

Basic and mature oleochemicals segments such as fatty acid and fatty alcohol are exploring downstream derivatives including fatty amines, soaps, alkanolamides, and esters. Downward integration to oleochemicals and further downstream activities are expected to provide market participants a good balance in case of volatile feedstock prices, as they are largely dependent on the harvest conditions. There is also an increased production of value-added products from the basic intermediates to meet the demand from the food and beverage industry. "Increasing global demand from industries such as pharmaceuticals, personal care, detergents, paints, cosmetics, food, plastics, and rubber, is driving the consumption of oleochemicals," say the analysts of this research. "Exports of oleochemicals are also on the rise as the products offered by many Southeast Asian participants, including those in Malaysia and Indonesia, are competitively priced and highly valued in the world market."

Oleochemical manufacturers will feel heartened by the rising consumption in India and China, in line with their economic growth. China’s gross domestic product (GDP) grew by more than 10 percent in 2007, fuelling the development of a variety of end-user industries including personal care and pharmaceuticals. Correspondingly, the demand for key ingredients such as fatty acids and fatty alcohol is expected to swell in Southeast Asia. "This market growth is also driven by the wide availability of raw materials; there is abundant supply of vegetable-based raw materials such as palm and coconut oil, giving Southeast Asian participants a strong edge," notes the analyst. "This advantage has increased the number of participants and manufacturers of oleochemicals in Southeast Asia, thereby facilitating the overall growth of the fatty acid market in the region."

One of the upshots of the developments of new fatty acids and fatty alcohol plants in Southeast Asia is the amplified demand for lauric oil. Further, Southeast Asia could face an issue of overcapacity due to the capacity enhancements announced in Indonesia and Malaysia. This situation, in turn, could result in a scarcity of raw materials. Moreover, the downstream activities by the cash-rich plantation companies could lead to price wars. To survive in these conditions in a mature market, participants need to establish cost-saving practices. "Forming partnerships that enable economies of scale to be achieved along with joint ventures with plantation companies are likely to provide market participants with a continued supply of raw materials," observes the analyst. "This strategy is critical, as even large-scale participants are expected to witness a downward trend in revenues due to intense competition in the market, compounded by growing activity in the biodiesel industry." Oleochemical companies could also increase emphasis on technology and R&D to create new end-user applications to resolve overcapacity issues.
