Rising demand for reduced trans fat products across the world is a key factor driving the interesterified fats industry forward. Interesterified fats have gained immense traction across the food processing industry as they are being increasingly used as a substitute for conventional fats that are unhealthy for human health.
Consuming food items containing trans-fatty acids produced during the industrial partial hydrogenation process has detrimental cardiovascular health consequences.
In several nations, this has resulted in voluntary government measures and initiatives to reduce the so-called “industrial” trans-fatty acids in food products. This is creating a conducive environment for the expansion of United Kingdom Intersterified Fats Market.
As a substitute for hydrogenation, interesterification of fats is being used more frequently to create the shortening and margarine bases. Food manufacturing companies are putting efforts to reduce the trans fat content in their products. This in turn is propelling demand for interesterified fats worldwide.
Incorporating interesterified fats into meals increases desirable functional properties while eliminating the requirement for trans-fats and lowering the saturated fatty acid (SFA) content by 10% to 20%.
The rapidly expanding usage of UK interesterified fats in pharmaceutical and cosmetics & personal care industries is another factor fueling expansion of this industry.
