Report Description
The global food grade phosphoric acid market size is expected to expand at a CAGR of 4.19% during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to rising demand for frozen and packaged food items.
Phosphoric acid is a colorless and odorless powerful inorganic acid. It is a necessary ingredient in colas and other dark-colored carbonated beverages. Food grade phosphoric acid has a balanced strength and taste profile, making it a good choice for low-pH foods and beverages. The inorganic compound is used to make cola drinks acidic.
Pure food-grade phosphoric acid is used in a variety of foods including sauces, mayonnaise, and fruit juices. Food preservatives include sodium and potassium phosphate salts. Phosphates in processed foods can help preserve and improve the structure, color, flavor, and other sensory characteristics of the product while improving baking performance by attaining optimal leavening.
Food-grade phosphoric acid is often packaged in IBCs, HDPE drums, and bulk containers to ensure effective storage and convenient transport for any delivery service. Furthermore, food-grade phosphoric acid producers are concentrating on offering their products, which include features such as high purity, on-demand packaging, and custom-made products.
In the food grade phosphoric acid sector, the speed of change is quickened and firms that promptly re-align their strategy have emerged to be stronger from the extraordinary upheavals. However, in addition to worries about inflation, supply-chain disruptions, and sluggish consumer demand, the COVID-19 pandemic represents a serious threat to the overall market outlooks.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Rising food consumption, impacted by the increasing global population is a key driver of the market during the forecast period.
- High production rates and cheap labor costs are key factors that can propel the market in the coming years.
- Rapid urbanization, changing lifestyle, and development of new culinary tastes and behaviors are projected to boost the market.
- Development of bio-based products and problems arising due to the over usage of phosphate based synthetic products can hamper the market expansion during the forecast period.
- Demand for preservative food items particularly in the beverage industry is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market growth in the coming years.

Market Segment Insights
Beverage segment to expand at a considerable CAGR
On the basis of applications, the food grade phosphoric acid market is segmented into pharmaceuticals, beverage, and food. The beverage segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Phosphoric acid aids in the maintenance of optimum pH levels and extends the shelf life by acting as an acidity regulator in the beverage sector.
Its applications include lowering waste creation and lesser expenses associated with product recalls or refunds at retail outlets owing to spoiling. On the other hand, the food segment is anticipated to account for a major market share during the forecast period as it helps to extend the shelf life of a product.
North America is anticipated to constitute a key market share
In terms of regions, the market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the projected period owing to the demand for packaged goods by a growing population and rising middle-class income.
However, the market of Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to China's industrial consolidation. The country also remained as the top user of phosphoric acid, with the bulk of the product going to culinary applications.
