Depending on the type, the market is segmented into refined and unrefined peanut oil. The refined oil is refined by bleaching and deodorization. This process essentially removes components that can cause peanut allergies, making refined peanut oil non-allergic. The high smoke point offered by refined peanut oil makes it an attractive frying oil for hotels and restaurants. Unrefined peanut oil offers the nutty flavor of peanuts and is therefore an ideal choice for salad dressings.
On the basis of the application, the market is segmented into food, personal care, pharmaceutical and others. Food is the dominant segment and is expected to remain so due to the nature of the market. The growing interest in incorporating herbal or natural solutions into everyday products is a major driver for the personal care products segment. In personal care products, peanut oil can be used in the making of skin care and baby care products. Peanut oil is also used in a wide range of pharmaceuticals, including weight loss, cholesterol-lowering medications, heart medications, and constipation.
