Global Oxygen Scavenger Market Size, Trends & Analysis - Forecasts to 2026 By Type (Inorganic Oxygen Scavengers, Organic Oxygen Scavengers), By End-User (Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Power, Oil & Gas, Chemical, Pulp & Paper), By Region (By Region North America, Asia Pacific, Central & South America, Europe, and the Middle East and Africa), Competitive Landscape, Company Market Share Analysis, and Competitor Analysis
The global oxygen scavenger market is projected to grow from USD 2.5 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 3.1 billion by 2026 at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2021 to 2026.
Oxygen scavengers substantially prevent oxidative damage in a wide range of food constituents, including oils and fats to prevent food spoilage, plant and muscle pigments and fragrances to prevent discoloration and loss of aroma, and nutritive elements like vitamins to minimize nutritional benefit loss.
The growing necessity of oxygen scavengers for the processed food segment is fueling the market growth. Additionally, rising consumer awareness about minimizing waste owing to unsanitary and inadequate packing is propelling the oxygen scavenger market growth.
Aerobic bacteria and food spoilage microorganisms, degradation and tartness of conjugated fats and oils, the redox of vitamins A, C, and E, and the non-enzymatic colouring of fresh vegetables and fruits are inhibited by oxygen scavengers. The usage of oxygen scavengers aims to improve the health of products. These reasons are further boosting the global market.
Based on type, the market is segmented into inorganic oxygen scavengers and organic oxygen scavengers. Inorganic and organic oxygen scavengers are used to minimize biochemical oxygen demand and safeguard devices from oxidation in water material handling like boiler water systems and effluent systems. However, during the forecast period, the demand for inorganic oxygen scavengers is estimated to be the largest owing to superior quality and storage stability in packaging applications and is demanded extensively by the food and beverage industries. They are used to minimize biochemical oxygen demand and safeguard devices from oxidation in water material handling like boiler water systems and effluent systems.
Based on end-user, the market is segmented into food & beverage, pharmaceutical, power, oil & gas, chemical, pulp & paper. The market for food & beverage segment is predicted to have the largest share in the market during the forecast period. This is attributable to rising demand for higher-quality packaged foods, an increase in demand for convenient meals, a reduction in food waste, and greater urbanization in emerging nations. These chemicals keep processed foods fresher for longer periods and extend the shelf life of the items. Additionally, an increase in disposable income and the expansion of the middle-class population are generating demand for oxygen scavengers in the food and beverage industry.
Oxygen scavengers are increasingly being used in oil & gas industries as well during the forecast period. It is a fact that metals corrode when exposed to a damp atmosphere and oxygen. As a result, oxygen scavengers are widely utilized as corrosion inhibitors in oil and gas production plants, boilers, and the metallurgical industry. They are also used for the conservation of historic artworks that deteriorate long-term exposure to oxygen, as well as the restoration of the solderability of electrical devices and electronic equipment.
As per the geographical analysis, the market can be classified into North America (the US, Canada, and Mexico), Asia Pacific (India, China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and Rest of Asia Pacific), Europe (Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, and Rest of Europe), Middle East & Africa and Central South America.
The North American region is expected to hold the lion’s share of the global revenue generated in the market. The region is predicted to have the largest share owing to rising demand for packaged nutritious, fresh, and premium items, increasing number of pharmaceutical packaging and oil & gas players in the U.S., as well as increasing demand for packaged food products.
The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing region in the market primarily due to the region's expanding economies, such as India, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, and Thailand, where consumption of packaged and convenient food goods is increasing rapidly. Additionally, rising population and urbanization are driving the market. Furthermore, the region's demand for oxygen scavengers is rising due to rapid industrial growth due to the evolving demographic trends, such as better living standards.
Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc., BASF SE, Clariant AG, Ecolab Inc., SUEZ Water Technologies & Solutions, Accepta, Arkema Group, Kemira, Solvay America Inc., Solenis, Tosaf Group, Henkel AG & Company, KgaA, Albis plastic GmbH, Gabriel-Chemie, and Nano bio matters, among others are the top players in oxygen scavenger market.
