Hazelnut oil is a vegetable oil extracted from hazelnuts (Corylus avellana) and is renowned for its rich, nutty flavor. It is commonly used in cooking, particularly in salad dressings and marinades, and as a finishing oil for various dishes. Additionally, hazelnut oil is valued for its high content of monounsaturated fats, similar to olive oil, making it a healthier choice for heart health.
The main types of hazelnut oil include cold-pressed hazelnut oil, refined hazelnut oil, unrefined or virgin hazelnut oil, flavored hazelnut oil, and others. Cold-pressed hazelnut oil is produced by mechanically pressing hazelnuts without applying heat or chemicals, which helps retain the oil's natural nutrients and antioxidants, resulting in a high-quality product rich in vitamins and healthy fats. Distribution channels for hazelnut oil include supermarkets and hypermarkets, specialty stores, online retail, foodservice and hospitality, among others. Its applications span culinary uses, cosmetics and skincare, aromatherapy, nutraceuticals, and more.

Organic cosmetics are beauty and personal care products formulated with natural ingredients that are certified organic, meaning they are produced without synthetic chemicals, pesticides, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and comply with defined organic standards. The increasing demand for organic cosmetics is fueled by greater consumer awareness of the health and environmental benefits of natural ingredients, a growing preference for sustainable and chemical-free products, and heightened concerns about the adverse effects of synthetic chemicals used in conventional skincare. Hazelnut oil is widely used in organic cosmetics due to its moisturizing benefits, its ability to improve skin elasticity, and its natural astringent properties that help regulate oil production. For instance, in March 2025, according to NSF, a US-based global public health organization, 74% of consumers reported that organic ingredients are important in personal care products, reflecting higher awareness compared with earlier years. Therefore, the growing demand for organic cosmetics is driving the expansion of the hazelnut oil market.

Hazelnut oil is used in dietary supplements for its healthy fatty acid profile, rich antioxidant content, and potential benefits for heart health, skin hydration, and overall wellness. For instance, in October 2023, according to the survey of 3,192 adults conducted by the Council for Responsible Nutrition, a US-based trade association for the dietary supplement and functional food industry, around 74% of U.S. adults are utilizing dietary supplements. Consumer confidence in the quality of sports nutrition supplements has risen by five percentage points to 66% compared to 2022, while confidence in the weight management category has increased by four percentage points to 56% during the same period. Therefore, the growing demand for dietary supplements will drive the growth of the hazelnut oil market.
