Animal and marine oils and fats are water-insoluble, hydrophobic substances of animal origin. In addition,  animal oils consist predominantly of glyceryl esters of fatty acids, so-called triglycerides. The fatty acids composition of animal oils and fats varies and with that of the physical properties. Oils are liquid at room temperature, whereas fats are solid. Fats and oils predominantly are triesters (triacylglycerols and triglycerides) of glycerol and aliphatic fatty acids containing up to 22 carbon atoms. Animal fats are commonly consumed in semisolid form as milk, butter, lard, schmaltz, and dripping, or as filler in factory-produced meat, pet food, and fast food products.

Furthermore, increase in demand for animal fat in F&B industry acts as a key driving force of the market. They aid in the enhancement of food flavor and texture. As a result, many food processors and bakers choose fats such as tallow. Moreover, animal fats include high levels of oleic acid, which has been linked to variety of health benefits. In addition, oils and fats are critical raw materials for the production of oleochemicals such as free fatty acids, methyl esters, fatty alcohols, and amines as well as glycerol as a by-product. Consumers in rapidly growing regions, such as Asia-Pacific, are preferring lard over butter in baked goods, which is boosting demand for animal fats.
