Castor oil is more than a traditional commodity — it’s the backbone of multiple modern industries, from pharmaceuticals and cosmetics to biopolymers, lubricants, and specialty chemicals. With global trade valued at over USD 1.2 billion, and demand rising steadily at 4–5% annually, castor oil is one of the fastest-growing segments in the vegetable oil market.

The Global Trade Landscape


India leads the world, accounting for over 80% of global exports. In 2023, Indian shipments exceeded USD 1 billion.


China, the United States, Germany, France, and Japan are among the largest importers, with steady demand for both crude and processed castor oil.


The market is expanding beyond traditional hubs, with growing trade activity from Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia.


Challenges remain, including price volatility, container availability, and the need to maintain purity during long-haul shipments.





Why Flexitanks Are the Smart Choice for Castor Oil


Transporting castor oil requires packaging that ensures purity, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Traditional drums and IBCs often fall short — driving up costs, wasting space, and increasing contamination risks.



Flexitanks provide a game-changing alternative:


Higher Payload: Up to 26,000 liters in a standard 20ft or 40ft container — nearly 50% more than drums or IBCs.


Product Integrity: Multi-layer food-grade liners and robust woven layers protect against leakage, contamination, and oxidation.


Lower Costs: Fewer shipments, reduced labor handling, and no return logistics.


Sustainability: One-time use, recyclable materials, and reduced carbon footprint compared to traditional bulk transport.


Global Scalability: Ideal for long-haul routes connecting India with Europe, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific.


Supporting the Future of Castor Oil Logistics


As industries worldwide accelerate their shift toward bio-based and sustainable inputs, castor oil demand will only increase. With flexitanks, producers, exporters, and importers can move larger volumes safely, reduce transport costs, and support greener supply chains.



From India’s farms to factories across the globe, flexitanks are powering the castor oil trade — making bulk liquid logistics simpler, smarter, and more sustainable.
