Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are widely used in the food and beverages industry as a source of healthy fats. They are used in a variety of products including energy bars, sports drinks, and meal replacement shakes. MCTs are also used in the pharmaceutical industry as a source of energy for patients who are unable to consume food orally. They are also used in nutritional supplements and medical foods. Moreover, medium chain triglycerides are also used in the personal care industry in a variety of cosmetic products including lotions, creams, and hair care products. They have moisturizing and emollient properties, making them a popular ingredient in these products.
The pharmaceutical industry has become a one of the major drivers of the demand for Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) in recent years. MCTs are increasingly being used as excipients in pharmaceutical products due to their ability to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the global pharmaceutical sales are projected to reach US$ 1.6 trillion by 2025, up from $1.2 trillion in 2020. This growth will spur the demand for pharmaceutical excipients like MCTs.
MCTs are also particularly useful for lipid-based drug delivery systems, which improve the absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs. The growth in the biopharmaceutical pipeline relying on lipid excipients is contributing to the MCT demand.
Overall, expanding pharmaceutical sales, growth in biopharmaceutics, and potential direct uses of MCTs as APIs are fueling the rising demand from the pharmaceutical sector. This creates a positive long-term growth trajectory for the global medium chain triglycerides market.
