Propionic acid, in several manufacturing processes, can be safely used as an intermediate. If propionic acid comes in contact with the skin, then it may cause severe burns and pain. It can lead to extreme discomfort and probably blindness if it gets into a person’s eyes. These factors are, therefore, expected to restrain the growth of the industry. Propionic acid is a fungicide and bactericide registered to suppress fungi and bacteria in stored crops, hay, and grain storage areas. Propionic acid is productive for both healthy animal products and human health as an antibiotic growth promoter. Acid esters find their use as solvents or artificial flavourings that replace chemical flavourings. These uses of propionic acid provide lucrative prospects for business growth.

Propionic acid is widely used in animal feed and several packaged food products as a preservative, as it helps limit mold growth in feed and food products. However, the lack of technological innovation in product offerings and rising environmental concerns regarding the use of herbicides hampers the market growth. Besides, market players face the increasing challenge of reducing product sales margins, which in turn has an impact on their overall revenue. Propionic acid manufacturers are entering untapped and developing markets to overcome the result of these challenges and gain a higher competitive edge in the global market.
The consumers use propionic acid as sodium and calcium propionate, cellulose acetate propionate, and others. Animal feed and grain preservatives use these acids. Another application includes the use of the product in pharmaceuticals, textiles, herbicides, plastics, perfumes, etc., as a chemical intermediate. The substance used as a flavoring and antimicrobial agent in the food & beverage industry is safe as it comes in the category of Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Uh. FDA.
The market for propionic acid anticipates touching over USD 1.85 billion by 2026. The market expects to grow during the 2021-2026 forecast period at a CAGR of 5.7 percent. The growing demand for the preservation of grain and animal feed and the food industry has led to the positive growth of the global market.
Europe dominates the Propionic Acid market. The market for the food industry and the agro-based market is Germany. Investments in the food industry support the demand for propionic acid. Around 4% of Italy’s population is committed to the agriculture sector. In Italy, there is potential for growth in demand for propionic acid during the forecast period. There is also an increase in demand in the pharmaceutical industry for propionic acid. Due to the growing animal feed, food and beverage, and personal care industries, the Asia-Pacific region expects to experience the highest CAGR. In Asia-Pacific countries, agriculture is predominant, serving as a catalysis for the rapid growth of the demand for propionic acid.
