4. Description
Calcium propionate, a food additive, acts as an antimicrobial agent and it is used as preservative
in a wide variety of products. By reducing the growth of bacteria and fungi, it helps to increase
the shelf life of food. This market is tremendously growing due to the rising preferences of
consumers towards fresh food, hygiene and long shelf life products. As compare to other
preservatives, calcium propionate is less toxic. Preservatives such as sodium propionate are
corrosive to the skin, eye and mucous membranes, while calcium propionate is not an irritant.
It is a cost effective solution as compared to the other preservatives, which is a major factor that
drives the market. Apart from being used as a preservative, it has a wide range of functions that
drives the market, such as being used as an additive in cow feed. When it is used as an additive,
it avoids the spread of milk fever disease among cows. Additionally, it can also be used as a
pesticide for plants. The increasing demand for ‘free-from’ food such as non-preservative food
is the major restraint of the mentioned market.
Moreover, the scarcity of raw materials and its rising prices are hindering production volumes.

American countries, which are almost unexplored. Therefore, proper expansion planning in these
regions would be a great opportunity. In addition, manufactures are now focusing on various
R&D and innovation investments to launch new products.
