The global crude tall oil derivative market size reached US$ 1.85 Billion in 2021. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 2.44 Billion by 2027, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.60% during 2022-2027.

Crude tall oil (CTO) derivative represents a cost-effective, commercially valuable biomaterial or by-product of the pulp and paper industry. It is produced through the kraft procedure of fatty and resins acids, unsaponifiable and neutral compounds that are derived from wood extractives and softwoods. It is further isolated from acidifying skimming of partially concentrated black liquor, which is collected and refined at special plants. Currently, CTO derivative finds extensive applications in metalworking operations, the mining industry for flotation, corrosion inhibitors, drill fluids, metal-rolling, and fluid separation for concrete products. Apart from this, it is used in oil-based lubricants, dry agents, detergents, soaps, surfactants, and polishes. At present, CTO derivative is commercially available in tall oil rosin (TOR), tall oil fatty acids (TOFA), tall oil pitch (TOP), and distilled tall oil (DTO) variants.

Crude Tall Oil Derivative Market Trends:
One of the key factors driving the market growth is the widespread adoption of CTO derivatives across sectors due to the increasing need for various value-added bio-based products. This can be further attributed to the growing awareness amongst manufacturers regarding its beneficial properties, including renewable sources, lower carbon footprint, non-genetically modified organisms (Non-GMOs), oxidative stability, excellent air drying characteristics, and negligible aromatic compound. In line with this, the stringent implementation of sustainable green approaches by governments, owing to rising environmental concerns, has promoted the uptake of CTO derivatives as an eco-friendly fuel additive in diesel and petrol. Additionally, the rapid expansion in the agricultural sector and the escalating demand for high-quality crops have intensified the incorporation of TOFA in pesticides to enhance crop production, which is contributing to the market growth. Moreover, the extensive uptake of CTO in alkyd resins, metallic stabilizers, textile chemicals, metalworking fluids, ink, adhesives, and papers is propelling the market growth. Apart from this, the usage of various product recycling tactics and strategic collaborations amongst key players to expand product usage are creating a positive outlook for the market.
