Global Linseed Oil Market is anticipated to reach USD 939 million by 2025. Linseed is also known as “Flaxseed”. These are small, tanned, brown, or golden-colored seeds that are the richest sources of plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, known as alpha-linolenic acid. Linseeds are an excellent source of fiber and a good source of minerals and vitamins. They are very low in Sodium and Cholesterol. This flaxseed is helpful to improve the digestive system, reduce sugar cravings, promote weight loss, and balance hormones.

Linseed oils are widely used in the production of several products comprising paints, putty, gliding, floorings, wood finish, linoleum, food processing, and nutritional supplement. The high demand for these oils across several end-user businesses could be ascribed to their high polymerizing, layer formation, and bonding abilities. To render tempering, litho oil, catalyzed curing, grinding, and bonding, Linseed oil is mainly used. In addition, Linseed oil is extensively used in paints owing to its uniform drying, film-forming capabilities, and bonding.

The factors that propel the growth of the market include increasing demand from the paint and coating industry, raising awareness about the medical benefits among the people. Several studies suggest that these oils are beneficial in reducing the risk of cardiovascular and cancer. These factors will boost the market in the forecast period.
