Fumaric acid is an organic compound with a white solid form and it occurs widely in nature. It has a fruit-like taste and has been used as a food additive and other technical grades. The global fumaric acid market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period (2021-2027). The major aspect that drives the growth of the market includes the growth in the applications of the market such as food & beverage additives, personal care & cosmetics, rosin paper sizing, unsaturated polyester resin, alkyd resin, and other. The food & beverage additives application segment plays a major role in catalyzing the growth of the market during the forecast period. In the food & beverage industry, fumaric acid is primarily used as an ingredient in energy drinks. As the demand for the energy drink reaches its peak owing to the rising number of athletes and sportsmen, the market is expected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period.
Another factor that propels the growth of the market is the increasing demand for alkyd resins and unsaturated polyester resins from the construction and automotive production industries. Fumaric acid is extensively used in unsaturated polyester resins and alkyd resins to maintain the unsaturated molecular chain. Hence, this is further likely to bolster the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Segmental Outlook
The global fumaric acid market is segmented on the basis of type and applications. Based on the type, the market is segmented as food grade and technical grade. Based on the applications, the market is segmented as food & beverage additives, personal care & cosmetics, rosin paper sizing, unsaturated polyester resin, alkyd resin, and other.
Technical Grade Fumaric Acid Segment to Hold a Substantial Market Share
Amongst the type segment of the global fumaric acid, the technical grade fumaric acid segment is projected to hold the most lucrative share in the market. The segmental growth of the market is accredited to the wide range of applications of fumaric acid for technical uses such as pharmaceutical, personal care & cosmetics, rosin paper sizing, unsaturated polyester resin, alkyd resin, and others. There has been an increased demand for unsaturated polyester resin in end-use industries such as aerospace, marine, and tank and pipes, which is anticipated to drive the market growth during the forecast period. Some other applications of fumaric acid include lubricating oil, plasticizers, and lacquers which also tend to drive the global fumaric acid market growth during the forecast period.
