Despite the various growth opportunities, the recycled base oil market also faces certain restraints that could hinder its growth. A primary constraint is the limited availability of feedstock for producing high-quality recycled base oil. The quality of recycled base oil largely depends on the quality of the used oil collected for recycling, and the availability of such high-quality feedstock can be a constraint for market growth.
The lack of awareness and acceptance of recycled base oil among end-users is Moreover, a hindrance to the market. Many consumers still prefer conventional base oil over recycled base oil due to concerns about performance and quality. Overcoming this mindset and successfully educating end-users about the benefits of recycled base oil will be crucial for the market to reach its full potential.
