According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Asia Pacific tallow market was valued at US$ 646.29 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 1,071.78 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 6.5% from 2023 to 2031. Increasing use of tallow for animal nutrition and surging demand for biofuel are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Asia Pacific tallow market growth.

Tallow is extensively used as an animal feed and pet food ingredient. The primary benefit of using fats in animal diets is their energy contribution. Fats provide the most concentrated energy of all food/feed materials, containing about 37 kJ of energy per gram. Tallow is typically pressed into cakes and used for animal feed, especially for dogs and hogs, or as fish bait. In tallow, less than 3% of free fatty acids are present. Its triglyceride structure is robust against oxidative rancidity because of its increased amount of saturated fatty acids. Therefore, it is safe to add to poultry meals at a level of 3–4%. It is a helpful feed ingredient for poultry in the summer when they require a quick supply of energy in the form of fats to prevent heat stress and the birds' consequent death. It is also beneficial in treating ascites in birds, particularly during the winter. Thus, tallow is significantly used as a poultry feed ingredient. Polyunsaturated fatty acids called essential fatty acids (EFA) need to be included in the diet of pets since their bodies are unable to synthesize these vital nutrients. Vegetable oils made from sunflower, safflower, or soybean and animal fats such as tallow include omega-6 fatty acids. For the skin barrier to remain healthy and intact, omega-6 fatty acids are essential. Moreover, the pet adoption is significantly increasing worldwide. For optimum health, a pet's diet must include vital fatty acids. This has resulted to adoption of tallow in the manufacturing of pet food. Thus, the rising adoption of pets across the world and increasing awareness about pet health among pet owners boost the demand for pet food, which propels the requirement for animal fat such as tallow.
