Degras Fat Residue Prices, Demand and Supply Overview
In Germany, the highest-cost reporting region, Degras Fat Residue prices fell just above 1.5% in Q3 2026, moving from roughly USD 717/MT in Q2 to close to USD 706/MT in Q3, and it was softer tallow prices and slower orders from leather finishers and lubricant blenders that most plausibly shaped the move.

For Q4 2026, a global average of just above USD 617 to 675/MT is expected, with tallow prices, tannery output, and lubricant and soap demand guiding the range.
Degras fat residue is the oily by product recovered from sheepskin and hide tanning when fat is removed during leather production, and it is a dark viscous material rich in free fatty acids and wool or hide fats. It is used as a leather fatliquor, in lubricants and greases, as a raw material for soap and fatty acid production, and in some feed and industrial uses, with leather processing and lubricants taking the largest share of demand. Tallow and fatty acid prices, tannery output, lubricant and soap demand, and freight rates all feed into the price.
Degras Fat Residue Price Forecast for 2026
The balance of supply and demand for degras fat residue through the end of 2026 leans stable to soft. Tallow prices eased through the year, and tannery output was steady. Buyers in lubricants and soap bought to need, which limits any recovery.
The main upside risk is a rise in tallow and fatty acid prices that lifts prices above the forecast range. The main downside risk is lower tannery output or weaker lubricant demand, which would pull prices below the forecast.
