Propionic Acid Application Market Demand, Share, Revenue, and Forecast Report
Market Scope
Market Research Future (MRFR) projects the Propionic Acid
Application Market to be valued at a whopping USD 2 billion by 2027. The market
share will expand at a healthy rate of 7% over the appraisal period (between
2020 and 2027).
Primary Drivers and Challenges
Propionic acid’s heightened use as a preservative in animal feed and
packaged food products would be a major reason for the robust market growth in
the years ahead. Its rising applications in herbicides as well as in the
production of cellulose acetate propionate will also create a tremendous
business scenario in the future.
With rapid changes in people’s lifestyle, packaged food items that
are safe and hygienic are enjoying considerable demand. This ultimately fosters
the use of propionic acid as a preservative for curbing bacteria and fungus growth
and boosting the shelf life of the food products.
The top firms are working on developing high-performing propionic
acid to meet with the soaring demand for excellence among end-users. Production
capacity expansion via acquisition, partnership, and distribution agreements remain
the major strategies generally employed by the players to enhance their positions
in the global market. To illustrate, in August 2021, BASF along with SINOPEC
has boosted their joint Verbund unit operated by BASF-YPC Co. Ltd. It is a
joint venture of both the firms in Nanjing, China, with both working on
expanding the capacity of numerous downstream chemical units, which will now
include propionic acid, along with propionic aldehyde, ethanolamines purified
ethylene oxide, and ethyleneamines.
Top Firms
The top propionic acid producers highlighted in the review report
are OXEA GmbH (Germany), Merck KGaA (Germany), Eastman Chemical Company (U.S.),
BASF SE (Germany), BIOMIN Holding GmbH (Austria), Krishna Chemicals (India),
Macco Organiques Inc. (Canada), The Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), Perstorp Orgnr
(Sweden), A.M. Food Chemical Co., Ltd. (China), to mention a few.
Segmental Review
The global Propionic Acid Application Market has been
considered for application as well as end-use industry.
The top applications of propionic acid
covered in the MRFR review study are rubber products, propionates, animal feed
& food preservative, plasticizers, herbicides, and others. Propionic acid is extensively utilized as a preservative
in cakes, bread, jams, non-alcoholic beverages, cheese, and various processed
& packaged food products to prevent bacteria and mold growth. This helps
bolster the shelf life of the packaged processed food. On the other hand,
propionic acid’s use is also surging in rubber, as a result of which the segment
should witness considerable growth in the coming years.
Major end-users of propionic acid are food
& beverage, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and more.
Regional Insight
Europe is heading the global Propionic Acid Application Market,
and the region’s dominance can be accredited to the surging demand for
convenience packed food, poultry, seafood and meat products. Additionally, the
widespread utilization of propionic acid within the pharmaceutical industry
adds significantly to the business value in the region. Heightened consumption
of a variety of livestock by-products combined with the surge in government
funds or aids encouraging development in the feed industry.
Asia Pacific, as the second biggest gainer in the global market,
will capture a solid CAGR of 10.6% from 2020 to 2027. The robust growth of the personal
care and food & beverages industries raises the propionic
acid demand. The extensive product use in the and agrochemicals agriculture
sector in China, Japan, and India further augments the market share in the
region. The market demand is also bolstered by the improving economic status
and the dramatic increase in the consumption of meat, especially in India,
Japan, China, and Thailand. The mounting sales of meat in the region has
triggered the overall production and has led to a higher demand for feed
acidifiers like propionic acid.
