These product types are commercially available in two grades viz. refined and unrefined.

The antioxidant activity of the naturally occurring sesame lignans is enhanced in this sesame oil grade.

Tocopherols and other vitamin-E precursors are other nutrients present in this oil.

Asia Pacific captured over 50% of the global sesame seed oil market. Sesame oil is extensively used as a cooking oil across the region for daily meals. In its refined form, the product is used as an ingredient in processing baked goods and margarine. It can also be used in crude form in salad dressings and spreads like hummus. As a final product, sesame oil is used by consumers and restaurants for cooking and frying, mainly in ethnic and gourmet cuisines.

The sesame oil market in Europe is likely to showcase a moderate growth over the forecast period. Sesame oil is increasingly used as a gourmet product in home and out-of-home consumption in Europe. The speciality oil segment is focused on high quality, sold at a higher price. Cold-pressed and high-quality toasted (one of the most-sold speciality oils in the United Kingdom) sesame oils are becoming especially popular. Cold-pressed sesame oil has a special appeal as a healthy oil. It is low in saturated fats and has other beneficial ingredients, such as vitamins and minerals; consumers see it as a healthy alternative in comparison to other cooking oils. Thus, the European demand for sesame oil is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period.

Germany has a well-established food industry and is also a prominent sesame oil market in Europe. The largest developing country (DC) supplier to Germany is Mexico, while countries such as China and Thailand play a more limited role. Germany offers an interesting proposition to exporters operating in the organic sesame seed oil market.

Consumers in North America classify sesame oil as a specialty product, mainly due to its unavailability in the region. These region often import the product and rebrand it locally. Thus, there are a large number of importers and trading companies associated with the sesame seed oil market in both the U.S. and Canada. The U.S. is one of the most prominent sesame oil importers. Rising domestic use of specialty spices & oil due to the growing Hispanic and Asian populations has resulted in driving the use of spices & oils that compensate for less salt and lower fat levels in foods.
