Natural Oil Polyols (NOP) Market size worth $10.3bn by 2023

Natural Oil Polyols (NOP) Market size may register 10.37 billion by 2023 as per the latest research report by Global Market Insights Inc.

Strong application outlook towards biomass derived polyurethane (PU) in automotive, construction and furniture industry should drive global natural oil polyols market size. Technology innovation over the past few years has pushed industry participants towards NOP adoption, in contrast to synthetic counterparts. They are at par in terms of sustainability & longevity as a substitute for petrochemical counterparts.

Soy oil based polyols dominated demand and generated over USD 1.75 billion in 2015. Ease of processability and abundant raw material availability owing to increasing soy acreages in U.S. and Brazil is estimated to drive product demand. Cargill and Dow have successfully capitalized soy based natural oil polymer market size for manufacturing PU spray foams and insulations.

Castor based NOP should grow significantly owing to key properties such as high purity and resistance towards hydrolysis. Additionally, it is one of the purest commercially available product requiring minimalistic modifications as compared to other counterparts such as soy and palm.

Favorable regulations by REACH and EPA to reduce GHG emissions may favor natural oil polyol market size growth. NOPs production process generates almost 30% less carbon emission and reduces energy demand by around 25% compared petrochemical counterparts.

Technology innovation for product development in cosmetics and food industry should favor industry growth. Also, industry participants such as BioAmber and Vertellus have invested to develop 100% bio-based polyols for commercial applications. Increasing R&D spending coupled with introduction of 100% bio-based NOP may have lucrative opportunities in near future.

Castor, soy, sunflower and palm are major vegetable oil sources used as NOP feedstock. Increasing application scope in food & biofuel industries may lead to tight raw material supply and affect natural oil polyols market price trend. Majority of vegetable oil production is concentrated in APAC and NOP market price trend in North America and Europe is affected by import duties and regional government policies.
