The global food preservatives market has grown steadily in the last few years. The market size is projected to reach USD 2.94 Billion by 2021, at a CAGR of around 2.5% from 2016 to 2021. The growing demand for convenience food products is the major driving factor of this market.

The global based on function has been segmented into antimicrobials and antioxidants. Antimicrobials accounted for a larger market share in 2015. Antimicrobial agents prevent spoilage of food by mold or microorganisms. 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. Due to consumer concerns about the use of synthetic additives, the market for synthetic antimicrobials is declining and being replaced with natural antimicrobials.

The food preservatives market, based on application, has been segmented into oils & fats, bakery, dairy & frozen products, snacks, meat, poultry, & seafood products, confectionery, and beverages. Meat, poultry, & seafood products accounted for the largest share of this market in 2015. Preservatives added to cured meats, bacon, and ground beef are sodium nitrite, which are added to meat and fish to destroy toxins, and react with proteins in the meat. Preservatives for meat are needed on a large scale, this is because meat is a very commonly consumed product across the globe and the consumption is high in large 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.

In the type segment, the market has been segmented on the basis of natural and synthetic. The synthetic food preservatives segment accounted for the largest share in 2015. They are widely used food preservatives commonly in the form of sorbic acid and potassium salts. In this segment, sorbates have the largest market and are also projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The largest share of sorbates can be attributed to their wide use in many applications such as dairy & frozen foods, snacks, and convenience foods. The demand for processed foods is one of the drivers of the growth of this segment.

The food preservatives market in Asia-Pacific is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The major drivers for the growth of the food preservatives market include the demand for convenience foods and food products with a longer shelf-life.

Demand for organic foods, and the increase in demand for natural preservatives and limited availability of natural resources are factors restraining the market.

The food preservative market is characterized by moderate competition due to the presence of a number of large- and small-scale firms. New product launches, acquisitions, and expansions are the key strategies adopted by these players to ensure their growth in the market. The market is dominated by players such as Akzo Nobel N.V. (Netherlands), Danisco A/S (Denmark), Cargill, Incorporated (U.S.), Univar Inc. (U.S.), and Koninklijke DSM N.V (Netherlands). Other major players in the market are Brenntag Solutions Group, Inc. (Germany), Tate & Lyle (U.K.), Kemin Industries, Inc. (U.S.), Galactic (Belgium), and Hawkins Watts Limited (New Zealand).
