Further key findings from the report suggest:

  • In 2020, oils held the largest revenue share of 66.5% owing to ease of availability and low price of the product

Cannabis oil and tinctures are generally used for treatment of various conditions like psychological disorders, nausea, and cancer. In terms of legality, laws pertaining to extracts are quite lenient due to non-psychoactive properties of Cannabidiol (CBD) oils compared to other products such as buds and resins. Due to their easy consumption in vapor or in the form of gummies and slowly diminishing social stigma of smoking cannabis buds, these products are anticipated to gain momentum and the increase in demand in the forthcoming years.

Rising prevalence of cancer is also a crucial factor expected to drive the market for cannabis extract during the forecast period. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2015, cancer was the second leading cause of deaths worldwide with around 8.8 million deaths globally. Increasing requirement of therapies related to pain management due to growing disease burden of chronic pain is anticipated to drive the medical marijuana market in near future. Moreover, due to age limitations and the exact calculation of dose, kids have prescribed cannabis oils instead of buds.

Marijuana tinctures are consumed sublingually and are prepared by dissolving the drug in alcohol. Tinctures can start working within 15 minutes, which is faster than oils which take around 45 minutes to start working. Therefore, the demand for tinctures is expected to witness significant rise over the forecast period. The tinctures segment is expected to register a CAGR of 14.5% over the forecast period.

Aphria Inc.; Canopy Growth Corporation; Aurora Cannabis; Maricann Inc.; Organigram Holdings Inc.; The Cronos Group; and TilrayTikun Olam, Ltd. are the major players that are operating in the cannabis market. These players have established strategic partnerships with extractors and other parties in the value chain to significantly strengthen their market position. Canopy Growth Corporation, for instance, partnered with Danish Cannabis ApS and marked a new joint venture called Spectrum Denmark ApS. This venture aims at strengthening the foothold of the company in the European market.

Due to strict regulations for THC in many countries, the adoption full spectrum or isolates is comparatively low. Physicians are also prescribing the components of medical marijuana owing to its entourage effect. Moreover, the rising pressure of the medical community on the legal bodies to legalize the full spectrum products is anticipated to positively influence the demand for full-spectrum extracts in the future.
