Nut oils are extracted through the hydraulic and screw pressing processes. Depending on the nut type and the quality of oil desired, external heat may be applied. The oil derived without heating contains the lowest level of impurities. Such oils are known as cold-drawn, cold-pressed, or virgin oils. The health benefits offered by nut oils are contributing to the overall market growth since they offer heart-healthy omega-3s and antioxidants and better digestion and gut health. Moreover, oils with fat content are used for browning and most nut oils add a distinctive flavor to the end product.
Based on nut type, the global nut oils market has been segmented into almond, walnut, hazelnut, pine, pistachio, macadamia, and others. The almond segment is expected to dominate the global nut oils market during the forecast period. Almond oil is high in monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E, potassium, protein, zinc, and a number of other vitamins and minerals due to which it is widely used in skin and hair treatment products. Macadamia nuts contain approximately 80% monounsaturated fats, including oleic acid, which protects the heart from diseases and reduces cholesterol levels. Thus, the macadamia segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period.
