Asia
In the Indian market tallow prices averaged at approximately USD 1,944/MT in June 2026 while in China, Tallow monthly average prices were nearly USD 1,954/MT in the last month of Q2’26. Asian market conditions remained supported by steady oleochemical, soap and industrial demand, while interest from low-carbon fuel applications added another consumption outlet. A notable development occurred in Singapore during the quarter, where a vessel used marine biofuel containing 50% tallow-derived biodiesel and 50% used cooking oil, highlighting growing use of animal fats beyond traditional applications. Limited regional spot availability and competition for suitable feedstocks kept replacement costs elevated, although improving global supply and softer vegetable-oil sentiment prevented a stronger late-quarter rise.
Europe
Germany saw Tallow valued at roughly USD 1,930/MT in June 2026. The prices remained comparatively strong through most of the quarter as renewable diesel and HVO producers competed with traditional users for rendered animal fats. Along with this, decreased availability from South America, as large volumes moved to the United States, further tightened the availability. Seasonal changes in feedstock quality led to lower supplies of better grade product that can be used for blending, supported the market despite weakening export demand in June. Furthermore, competition from vegetable oils and lower margins on renewable fuels hindered further growth and resulted in a more balanced market by the end of Q2.
North America
In the USA, Tallow prices were around USD 1,874/MT during June 2026. North American markets witnessed slightly higher prices in the first two months due to increased purchases of low-carbon feedstocks by renewable fuel producers. In April, imports of inedible tallow into the USA amounted to 90,027 tonnes, nearly twice as compared with March, proving the strength of domestic demand. However, the market corrected in June due to higher availability of incoming imports. Improved supply allowed buyers to become more selective, while renewable-diesel demand continued to provide a firm underlying consumption base.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, tallow prices are expected to remain firm but volatile, with renewable-fuel demand supporting values while higher imports and improved feedstock availability limit further increases.

Asia
Asian tallow prices moved upward during Q1’26 due to tightening import availability and higher logistics expenses linked to disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz. Freight and insurance costs increased sharply for shipments moving from major exporting regions, tightening regional supply conditions. Demand from biodiesel and oleochemical producers remained firm, particularly as renewable fuel investments continued expanding across Asia. Market sentiment was further supported by stronger global renewable fuel demand and limited spot availability. However, cautious downstream procurement and uneven industrial activity restricted sharper price increases during the quarter.
Europe
European tallow markets remained firm throughout Q1’26, supported by tightening biodiesel feedstock demand and elevated import costs. The regional biodiesel industry received additional support after anti-dumping duties ranging from 10% to 35.6% were imposed on Chinese biodiesel imports, benefiting more than 60 EU biodiesel producers and strengthening local feedstock consumption. Rising freight rates and shipping delays linked to Middle East tensions increased landed costs for imported animal fats, while demand from renewable diesel, SAF, and oleochemical sectors remained stable. However, cautious industrial activity and weak macroeconomic conditions limited aggressive buying activity across the region.
North America
In North America, tallow prices followed a firm upward trend during Q1’26 due to strong renewable diesel demand and tightening feedstock supply. Biofuel blending mandates increased significantly during 2026, while Renewable Identification Number (RIN) credit prices surged by more than 80%, improving renewable diesel margins and increasing demand for animal-fat-based feedstocks. Stable slaughter activity supported supply availability, although higher transportation and rendering costs added upward pressure to the market. Demand from biodiesel, renewable diesel, and SAF producers remained the primary growth driver, while downstream buyers continued focusing on inventory management amid volatile energy markets.
Tallow is the procured form of beef or mutton fat. It is made up of triglycerides. Tallow can be stored for longer periods, without the need of a refrigerator, keeping the fact in mind that it is stored in an airtight container so that its oxidation can be prevented. Tallow is characterised as tasteless and odourless.

In order to produce Tallow Fat, the process of rendering takes place. The tallow fat is rendered from mutton or beef. The mutton or beef are chopped into small pieces and the tallow fat is then rendered-off in a container at around 100°C temperature. It takes around hour and a half for the whole process to complete.
