The global policosanol market size is expected to reach USD 546.73 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Policosanol Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Source (Sugarcane Wax, Beeswax, Rice Bran, Wheat Germ, Others); By Grade; By Extraction Process; By Application; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

The growth of the policosanol market can be highly attributable to the rising number of patients with cholesterol at the global level. It is known to have a significant ability to promote blood circulation, which limits blood clotting in humans. Furthermore, some studies revealed the effectiveness of policosanol in controlling cholesterol levels according to their genes.

The growing number of research and development activities in the field of policosanol is positively driving its adoption in multiple applications, primarily in the pharmaceutical space. A study showcased the potential of policosanol in lowering serum cholesterol. The consumption of 10 mg/day of policosanol for 12 weeks reduced LDL-C by 24.4% among patients with higher coronary heart disease and type II hypercholesterolemia.

The rising progress of comparative studies around the world is positively driving growth. A 2024 study explored the inhibition of calcification properties of policosanol, vitamin D, and genistein. The result of the experiment revealed the effectiveness of three components in treating osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells. It showed superior performance in combinations, such as Poli+Gen, Gen+VitD, and Poli+VitD, compared to the single components.

The researchers' rising emphasis on finding the benefits of policosanols is anticipated to boost the demand for policosanol in the next few years. For instance, a 2023 study conducted a comparative study on the consumption of three Chinese policosanols among hyperlipidemic zebrafish. It revealed the potential of Cuban policosanol (Raydel) in improving dyslipidemia along with promoting the protection of the liver, ovary, and testis.

Furthermore, the prevailing use of policosanol in the food industry is creating significant demand potential for the global market. It is gaining importance in the food domain as an emulsifier, thickener, and stabilizer, making it a prominent dietary supplement. With its ability to improve texture and consistency, policosanol is gaining adoption in dairy products, baked goods, and sauce production processes.
