Global food preservatives market has been witnessing steady growth over the past few years. Food preservatives are substances that are added to products like oils, beverages, foods, pharmaceutical drugs, paints, wood, and many other materials to prevent decomposition by microbial growth or by undesirable chemical changes. These help in increasing the shelf life of foods without altering their taste or nutritional value. Growing awareness about food safety and hygiene along with expanding food industry has significantly boosted demand for various types of preservatives globally. Rising need for minimally processed and ready-to-eat food items is expected to drive the market growth. However, stringent regulations related to certain synthetic preservatives and consumer preference for natural ingredients may impede the global food preservatives market expansion to some extent during the forecast period.

Market Dynamics:

Increasing awareness among consumers about food quality and safety standards along with rising demand for convenience foods and longer shelf-life are the key factors driving the growth of global food preservatives market. Changing lifestyles and busy schedules has boosted demand for minimally processed, ready-to-eat and packaged food items which acts as a major growth opportunity for market players. However, rising health concerns related to synthetic preservatives and stringent regulations regarding their use limit their application scope, restraining market growth. Growing demand for natural preservatives provides a tremendous growth opportunity for organic and natural product manufacturers in the near future. Furthermore, development of eco-friendly and non-toxic food preservatives through continued research and development can help in overcoming the growth restraints.
