Earlier Report Observations

The linseed oil-cake market in the Americas contracted steadily from 2018 to 2023, with volume dropping from 187 thousand tons to 156 thousand tons and value declining from $96.8 million to $84.1 million. Production and imports both trended downward over these years, while exports saw some fluctuation.

Global supply constraints in 2023, caused by delayed harvesting in key producing nations like the United States and India, placed pressure on raw material availability and contributed to market tightness. That same year, investment in cold-pressing infrastructure in North America surged by 21%, responding to growing consumer preference for chemical-free oils and signaling a shift in production focus.

By 2024, North America held a dominant 43.8% share of the global linseed oil market, underpinned by continued investment in sophisticated and environmentally friendly extraction methods. Significant price volatility also entered the market due to a 57% production decline in Kazakhstan, a major exporter, which affected supply chains and cost structures across the Americas.
