Global Food Grade Gases Market to Grow in Value from $6.4 Billion in 2018 to $8.1 Billion by 2026 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Food Grade Gases Market by Type, Application, and End User: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2019-2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to this report, the global food grade gases market size was valued at $6.4 billion in 2018, and is projected to reach $8.1 billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of 3.2% from 2019 to 2026.

Food grade gases are additives, which play a significant role in the preservation and food packaging processes. These gases are majorly used to grind, freeze, and package a variety of products, which include dairy & bakery items, fish & seafood, beverages, poultry products, vegetables & fruits, and prepared meals. In addition, for maintaining the quality of food, the use of food-grade gases has increased in the food industry. The major gas used in food processing applications is modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), which is used to preserve minimally processed food products such as meat, fish, vegetables, and fruits. In addition, MAP prevents the spoilage of food by inhibiting microbial growth, oxidation as well as preventing discoloration and moisture loss.

Consumers have a perception that frozen food products are low grade as compared to fresh food. However, this perception is rapidly changing, owing to the introduction of improved freezing technologies, which help in preserving perishables without the addition of artificial flavoring agents and chemicals. For instance, the cold pressing or cryogenic technology using gases such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide has gained traction in recent years. The process includes injecting liquid carbon dioxide or nitrogen to eliminate heat. Thus, the increase in uses of food-grade gases for freezing and increasing the shelf life of food products is a key factor that contributes toward the growth of the global food grade gases market. However, the implementation of stringent government regulations toward the use of industrial gases restricts the growth of the food-grade gases market.

Furthermore, an increase in demand for frozen food products in developed and developing countries, owing to an increase in urbanization, a rise in disposable income, and expansion of retail networks to boost the demand for food-grade gases. In addition, the demand for food-grade gases is witnessed to increase significantly, as they prevent food products from fungal and microbial contamination, thereby enhancing their shelf life, which is anticipated to augment the growth of the market.
