The growing use of sunflower oil for biodiesel production is the key factor driving global sunflower oil market growth. One of the major factors expected to have a positive influence on the global sunflower oil market is the growing use of sunflower oil for biodiesel production. Due to the scarcity of fossil fuels, people are turning to alternative biofuels like biodiesel made from vegetable oils as a source of sustainable energy. Sunflower seeds have a high oil content and can produce more oil per acre than soybeans.
As a result, oil has quickly gained popularity as a feedstock crop for biodiesel production since it is simple to grow and profitable on both small farms and large-scale fields. This promotes the reuse of leftover cooking oil, resulting in a more sustainable, ecologically friendly fuel with lower pollutant emissions. As a result, it will be widely employed in biodiesel manufacturing, contributing to market expansion. Thus, increasing usage of sunflower oil in the manufacturing of biodiesel is expected to fuel the growth of the sunflower oil market during the forecast period.
The introduction of new packaging for sunflower oil is the primary trend in the global sunflower oil market. New packaging helps vendors attract consumers. Vendors operating in the global sunflower oil market are concentrating on revamping the packaging, sizing, and labeling of their products. In May 2018, Victoria Group AD (Victoria Group) announced changes in the packaging of ISKON edible refined sunflower oil. The company redesigned the label and changed the cap color to red as the dominant color of the new ISKON oil bottle. It changed the visual identity to help shoppers recognize the product on supermarket shelves, which may increase sales during the forecast period.
Moreover, in February 2018, Adani Wilmar Ltd. (Adani Wilmar) changed the packaging of sunflower oil to a recyclable material to reduce plastic waste generation. Each sunflower oil pouch offered by the company will carry a prominent, enlarged international symbol for recycling, symbolized by curved, folded arrows forming a triangle in the front of the pouch. Such factors will increase the market growth during the forecast period.
The availability of substitutes is a major challenge to the global sunflower oil market growth. Sunflower oil is widely used in cooking, owing to the presence of healthy unsaturated fatty acids. Other types of vegetable oils, however, can be used as replacements for sunflower oil in commercial and domestic cooking. Palm oil, olive oil, soybean oil, and canola oil are some alternatives to sunflower oil. Soybean oil is preferred as cooking oil owing to the presence of essential fatty acids such as linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, and mono-unsaturated oleic acid. A good balance of fatty acids in soybean oil ensures that the body obtains fatty acids and regulates cholesterol levels.
Moreover, the canola oil is a good source of vitamin K and vitamin E, which help in keeping the heart healthy. It has the lowest concentration of saturated fat among vegetable oils. Canola oil and soybean oil are also good sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which help protect the cell membranes of the skin and eyes. Like sunflower oil, olive oil has a high concentration of mono-unsaturated fats. It (olive oil) helps reduce cardiovascular diseases and cholesterol levels. The availability of substitutes, therefore, can hamper the global sunflower oil market during the forecast period.
