Opportunities: Increasing Number of New Food & Beverage Product Developments

Consumers are increasingly demanding food products that are healthy, convenient, natural, and sustainable. This has forced food and beverage manufacturers to formulate new and innovative products accordingly. New products, new variety line extensions, new packaging, and new formulations are the marketing strategies adopted by food & beverage manufacturers. As new products are increasingly being launched, the need for packaging and storage of these products increases. The use of food-grade gases will serve as a significant opportunity for manufacturers.

Challenges: Safe & Proper Handling of Food-grade gases

Food-grade gases must be controlled and readily available at the point of use, and the means of delivery is critically important to ensure system compatibility and safe transportation. A variety of storage containers are used for this purpose such as bulk containers, cryogenic cylinders, gas cylinders, and glass bottles. All the storage containers require safe and proper handling of the stored gases is essential. This is a major challenge faced by food-grade gases manufacturers, in order to prevent hazard and environment risks associated with these food-grade gases.

By mode of supply, the bulk segment is projected to record faster growth during the forecast period

Based on the volume required by end-users, the gases are either supplied in bulk or cylinder. Companies that require large volumes of gases opt for bulk supplies for easy transportation and storage. On the other hand, companies that require lesser volumes of gases generally opt for gases in cylinders. Owing to the factors such as ease of handling, transportation, and storage, the bulk mode of supply is projected to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period.
