REPORT DESCRIPTION

According to a market study published by Transparency Market Research on the global fish oil market, the
said market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.05% between 2012 and 2018. If the figure holds true,
the markets valuation of US$1.1 bn in 2011 will reach US$1.7 bn by 2018. The title to this report is Global
Fish Oil Market - Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2012 - 2018.
Derived from the tissues of oily fish, fish oil is taken as a general health supplement as a source of omega3 fatty acids. Fish oil is commonly used to refer to two types of omega-3 fatty acids docosahexaenoic
acid and eicosapentaenoic acid. Fish oil is the recommended source of omega-3 fatty acids due to its easy
availability and low cost.
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats that are needed for normal body functioning. Flax seed, fish, and
algae are the common sources of omega-3 fatty acids, of which fish oil is a major commercially available
source. Thus, increasing awareness regarding the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, which has in turn
resulted in increasing direct human consumption (DHC) of fish oils, is driving the global fish oil market. On
the contrary, stagnated production of fish oil is detrimental to this markets growth.
By application, aquaculture, direct human consumption, and others including industrial uses and
hydrogenation are the segments of this market. Of all, in 2011, aquaculture led the market and held a
share of more than 75% in the overall market. This segment was trailed by the direct human consumption
segment, which accounted for the second largest share in this market. Nevertheless, the direct human
consumption segment is exhibiting an exponential growth rate over the past few years owing to the
increasing usage of omega-3 fatty acids for their prescribed health benefits.
On the basis of species, the segments of this market are marine fish, tilapias, salmon and trout, carps, and
others (including eels, herrings, and mackerels). Amongst these, salmon and trout dominate the
aquaculture segment of the global market. These fishes are used for human consumption due to their rich
docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content.

By geography, North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Rest of the World are the segments of this market.
Of all, Europe stands as the largest consumer of fish oil, as it has been a traditional region for fish farming
as an occupation. Furthermore, with increasing awareness about the health benefits of omega-3 fatty
acids, many consumers have included fish oil as a part of their daily nutrition supplement intake.
Asia Pacific also exhibits a steady demand for fish oil. In particular, due to the consistently developing
aquaculture industry in China, the region will contribute significantly to the revenue of the global fish oil
market.
COPEINCA ASA, Omega Protein Corporation, Croda Inc., EPAX AS, and Colpex are the top companies that
are actively involved in the global fish oil market.
