Sunflower Seed Oil Market Application Segment Analysis

According to Cognitive Market Research, the food segment has the biggest market share during the forecast period. The rising demand for sunflower oil as a cooking oil in the food industry and food service sector is the primary cause for the growing growth. The overall final product price increase exceeds that of other conventional oils such as soybean, palm, and peanut. This adds to its low adaptation rate in various emerging economies. As a result, the sunflower oil market is projected to slow down soon. Furthermore, the food business relies heavily on frying oil.

The cosmetics segment is the fastest-growing in the sunflower seed oil market. This can be attributed to the need to trend towards natural and plant-based ingredients used in many of these cosmetic products. Sunflower seed oil's ability to moisturize, provision of antioxidants, and nourishment of the skin are some features that give this ingredient importance for the cosmetics industry, making it highly popular in skincare and haircare products. Faster consumer preference for natural and sustainable ingredients in beauty products has lately boosted the demand for Sunflower Seed Oil in the cosmetics segment.
