Acidity Regulators Market size is poised to grow at 7.2% CAGR from 2023 to 2032 attributed to the growing consumer demand for clean label and natural ingredients worldwide
The surge in the number of health-conscious consumers seeking transparency in food products has pushed manufacturers to replace synthetic additives with natural acidity regulators, such as citric acid, acetic acid, vinegar and lactic acid. These natural alternatives not only enhance flavors but also align with clean-label trends, reflecting the commitment to healthier and less processed choices. Moreover, stringent food safety regulations and the dire need to comply with international quality standards have led to increased usage of acidity regulators in food products. Furthermore, the development of functional foods and fortified beverages requiring acidity regulators for taste masking and fortification will propel the industry growth.
The acidity regulators market is segmented into type, function, application, and region.
With respect to type, the industry value from the phosphoric acid segment is anticipated to gain significant traction through 2032 attributed to multifaceted application in carbonated beverages, jams and bakery products. The increasing demand for soft drinks and processed foods has amplified the need for phosphoric acid as it imparts tartness and preservative properties. Moreover, industry players are focusing on innovating and expanding their production processes for supporting segment growth. For instance, in November 2022, GACL (Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Limited), India's leading producers of caustic soda with 1087 TPD capacity, announced plans to open new phosphoric acid factory.
In terms of application, the acidity regulators market size from the industrial segment is projected to record robust growth between 2023 and 2032. Acidity regulators play pivotal role in controlling the pH levels for ensuring product quality and facilitating efficient production in industrial processes. Industries, such as wastewater treatment, chemical manufacturing, and metal processing rely on acidity regulators to maintain operational efficiency and safety. Moreover, the demand for acidity regulators is also surging across the textile, automotive, and electronics sectors to offer improved pH control.
Asia Pacific acidity regulators market is expected to experience robust expansion through 2032. The presence of the thriving food & beverage sector, driven by robust population growth and rising disposable incomes is fueling the adoption of acidity regulators for maintaining product quality and taste consistency. Additionally, the trend towards Western-style fast food and convenience products in emerging economies will stimulate the regional market growth.
