Food Grade Phosphoric Acid Market to grow with a CAGR of 3.40% through 2030

Surging demand for preserved food products is expected to drive the Global Food Grade Phosphoric Acid Market in the forecast period 2026-2030.

According to TechSci Research report, “Food Grade Phosphoric Acid Market- Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition, Opportunity and Forecast, 2020-2030F”, Global Food Grade Phosphoric Acid Market was valued at USD 2.10 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 2.54 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.40%. The food-grade phosphoric acid market is experiencing strong growth, largely driven by strategic collaborations among key industry players and rising demand in the bakery and food processing sectors. Companies are increasingly entering into partnerships to merge their individual strengths, foster innovation, and consolidate their position in a competitive market. These alliances are enabling businesses to enhance product quality, expand portfolios, and accelerate market penetration. One of the primary demand drivers is the rapidly expanding bakery industry. Changing consumer lifestyles and the preference for convenient, ready-to-eat options have significantly increased the consumption of baked goods worldwide. Food-grade phosphoric acid plays a critical role in this segment, particularly as a leavening agent that ensures dough consistency and desired texture in products like bread, cakes, and pastries. In addition to this, it also acts as an acidity regulator, maintaining optimal pH levels that contribute to flavor stability and overall product quality.

Continuous innovation within the food industry further supports market growth. Manufacturers are focused on improving shelf life, taste, and nutritional content, all of which are positively influenced by the properties of phosphoric acid. Moreover, the ingredient aligns well with the clean-label movement—being recognized as a safe and familiar acidulant—thereby increasing its appeal to health-conscious consumers. Research and development are unlocking new applications of food-grade phosphoric acid across food processing. For example, Spectrum Chemical’s 2022 expansion into bioCERTIFIED ingredients highlights a broader industry trend towards quality assurance and regulatory compliance. As food safety remains paramount, trust becomes a critical factor in the market. Any compromise in product quality, such as contamination or mislabeling, can damage consumer confidence and harm industry credibility. The food-grade phosphoric acid market is poised for continued growth, driven by innovation, collaborative strategies, rising demand in baked goods, and a strong focus on quality and safety standards across the food and nutraceutical sectors.
