[220 Pages Report] The overall food preservatives market is projected to grow from USD 2.6 billion in 2016 to USD 2.9 billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 3%. The rise in the popularity of food preservative solutions can be attributed to the growing demand for convenience foods and longer shelf life for processed foods. Increasing concerns over quality and safety standards are also expected to drive the demand for preservatives. China, Japan, and Australia are among the key regional markets targeted by food preservative manufacturers and distributors, due to the growing food & beverage processing industry, cost advantages involved, and raw material availability.
Food preservatives can be classified into natural and synthetic preservatives. All natural and chemical/synthetic preservation additives can be broadly classified as antimicrobials, antioxidants, and chelators, depending on their target food-spoiling agent. Chemical preservatives, owing to their low cost, diverse functionalities, and abundance, are estimated to account for a dominant share in the market; however, growing resistance from consumers and effects on human health are among the major reasons leading to faster growth of natural preservatives.
Antimicrobials function principally to prevent or inhibit the growth of microorganisms and thus prevent spoilage of food. Antimicrobial agents also include compounds such as calcium propionate and sorbic acid, which are used in products such as baked goods, salad dressings, cheeses, margarine, and pickled foods. Antimicrobials are also currently employed as preservatives within the food industry to extend product shelf life, improve product safety, maintain product quality, reduce processing costs, and increase the ability to distribute products globally in complex supply chains. The large share of antimicrobials can be attributed to their wide use in many applications such as dairy and frozen foods, snacks, and convenience foods, among others. Demand for processed foods is one of the drivers of the growth of this segment.
The key preservative added to cured meats, bacon, and ground beef is sodium nitrite. Sodium nitrite, when added to meat and fish, destroys toxins and reacts with proteins in the meat. Solutions used by meat processors to improve shelf-life and taste can also help to reduce pathogens. Preservatives for meat are required on a large scale; this is because meat is a very commonly consumed product across the globe and the consumption is high in major regions such as North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Latin America. The economy is rising in these regions, which has given consumers the opportunity to consume meat on a regular basis.
The North American market for food preservatives is estimated to be the largest between 2016 and 2021. The market in Asia Pacific is projected to grow at the highest CAGR. The increasing demand for convenience food products is expected to have a high impact on the food preservatives market in North America. Consumers are seeking minimally processed convenience foods with long shelf lives. This has heightened the need for appropriate food safety measures in the region, and resulted in manufacturers exploring the use of newer technologies and additives, which would be efficient alternates to synthetic preservatives.
The key food preservatives manufacturers in this market include Akzo Nobel N.V. (Netherlands), Danisco A/S (Denmark), Cargill, Incorporated (US), Univar Inc. (US), Koninklijke DSM N.V (Netherlands), Brenntag Solutions Group, Inc. (Germany), Tate & Lyle (UK), Kemin Industries, Inc. (US), Galactic (Belgium), and Hawkins Watts Limited (New Zealand). These players are undertaking a strategy involving new product launches, acquisitions, and collaborations & agreements to improve their market position and extend their competitive advantage.
