Food Grade Gases Market

Market Overview:

The global food grade gases market size reached US$ 8.4 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 12.9 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% during 2024-2032.

Food grade gases are specialized gases used for packaging, preservation, freezing, and carbonation of food products. Some of the commonly used food grade gases include argon, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen. They are used for the preparation of food and beverages, such as bakery, dairy and meat products, fruits, vegetables, oil, sauces, dressings, condiments and carbonated drinks. They are utilized as an additive or processing aid during food preparation. These gases are passed through food products to reduce moisture and oxygen content and optimize them for preparation or storage. They are also used as propellants in aerosol dispensed food products, such as creams and cheeses, and to create microbubbles in desserts for improving texture and fluffiness.

Food Grade Gases Market Trends:

Significant growth in the food and beverage industry is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. There is a rising demand for premium-quality meat and seafood products among health-conscious consumers, which is increasing the requirement for food grade gases. Moreover, the widespread adoption of modified air packaging (MAP) solutions is providing a thrust to the market growth. Food grade gases are used to retain the freshness of packaged food, especially organic fruits and vegetables and meat products, and enhancing the shelf-life of cheeses and pasta without using synthetic chemicals. In line with this, the increasing product utilization in hotels, cafes, quick serving restaurants (QSRs) and microbreweries are also contributing to the growth of the market. Other factors, including rising expenditure capacities of the consumers, along with the escalating consumption of packaged food products among the masses, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
