| Oleochemicals can be segregated into 6 categories, i.e. Fatty Acids, Esters of Fatty Acid, Fatty Alcohols, Fatty Amines, Glycerols and Soap Noodles. The categories collectively contain more than 30 products. Pakistan's overall market of Oleochemicals is estimated to be 164,640 MT per annum that consists of 95,000 MT local production and 74,640 MT imports. Out of the local production, some 5,000 MT Oleochemicals (Soap Noodles) are exported, mainly to Afghanistan. The share of local production in Oleochemicals market is 55%, while that of imports is 45%. The magnitude of local production is gradually increasing as the local Oleochemical producers are strengthening themselves through capacity enhancement and technology upgradation. Furthermore, the in-house production of Soap Noodles and Glycerin by a number of soap producers has impacted the import of these specific products. |
