Algae oil is directly extracted from algae, and is a major source of omega-3 fatty acids. Algae oil is harvested, extracted, and refined directly from marine algae rich in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA, offering several health benefits. The DHA present in the product represents more than 97% of omega-3 fatty acids in the cerebral cortex, human brain, and retina. Algae oil is primarily used as cooking oil in dietary supplements and animal feed. In addition, it is used in the energy sector, where it is used for biofuel production. Biofuel is widely used for its low carbon footprint, which means that algae oil consumption is growing considerably, contributing toward the growth of the market for algae oil.
COVID-19 scenario analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has not impacted the demand for algae oil, as it is rich in omega-3 fatty acid and exhibits several health benefits, which fuel its demand among a large consumer base. Moreover, it is widely used in the food &beverage industry, biofuel industry, infant formula, and dietary supplement. However, manufacturing activities have been halted, which is anticipated to affect the availability of algae oil for supply. In addition, the current trade disruption is anticipated to negatively impact the growth of the algae oil market.
Top impacting factors: market scenario analysis, trends, drivers, and impact analysis
Surge in demand for biofuels is expected to drive revenue growth of the global algae oil market during the forecast period, due to its lower carbon footprint.
Moreover, increase in demand for algae oil in food & beverage industry is expanding the growth of algae oil market. In addition, increase in demand for dietary supplements, due to rise in health awareness and increased in consumer purchasing power is expected to support growth in the market for algae oil.
Humidity and temperature in algae growth are expected to be major factors in curtailing the algae oil market growth. High algae oil price acts as a key restraint that challenges the global oil market growth.
Health benefits related to algae oil
Increase in consumption of healthy food & beverage products has led to rise in demand for algae oil. Algae oil is used in foodstuffs as cooking oil. The low saturated fat content has led to the use of algae oil as specialty oil. Owing to high nutrition, it is beneficial not only to humans but also to animals. Thus, algae oil is used to provide nutrition in animal feed. Moreover, this oil contains a high DHA and omega-3 content, which is normally present in fish oil.
