Dublin, July 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Medium Chain Triglycerides Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Application (Dietary & Health Supplements, Personal Care & Cosmetics, Pharmaceuticals), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2020 - 2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Medium Chain Triglycerides Market Growth & Trends

The global medium chain triglycerides market size is expected to reach USD 2.7 billion by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 6.8%. Growing consumer inclination towards natural and organic alternatives coupled with augmented demand for dietary supplements is expected to drive the market for medium chain triglycerides (MCT) over the forecast period.

MCTs are composed of medium chain fatty acid attached to carbon chain ranging from C6 to C12. The prominent raw materials used for MCT extraction include coconut, palm kernel, palm, rapeseed, sunflower, and soybean oils. However, coconut oil is preferred over other oils owing to its high MCT composition accounting for approximately 60 to 70 percent. Palm kernel oil after coconut is also used on the large scale for product manufacturing owing to largescale production globally resulting due to high consumption among consumers.

Commercially, the product is extracted using fractionation process which separates MCTs from other fats, naturally present in vegetable oils. However the extraction process is capital intensive which is proving to be a major constrain in production. Furthermore, the fluctuating prices of raw materials such as coconut and palm kernel oil many affect the prices of finished products.

The product is gaining popularity among several pharmaceutical, beverage, and nutritional supplement manufacturers owing to the anti oxidant, and anti microbial properties exhibited by the product. The pharmaceutical formulation requires extremely pure and high-quality extracts, which are further used to treat gastrointestinal, liver, and cardiovascular disorders.

MCT based supplements act as immunity boosters, which helps in proper body functioning and reduce disease occurrence. This is expected to positively impact the market for MCT over the forecast period.
