The report "Food-Grade Gases Market by Type (Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, Oxygen), Application (Freezing & Chilling, Packaging, Carbonation), End-Use (Dairy & Frozen Products, Beverages, Meat, Poultry & Seafood), and Region - Global Forecast to 2025", is estimated to be valued at USD 6.7 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 9.3 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2020 to 2025. Shifting consumer preferences toward convenient food packaging owing to their on-the-go lifestyles and the growing number of microbreweries across all regions are some of the factors driving the growth of the food-grade gases market.
Drivers: Growing Number of Microbreweries Across all Regions
Carbon dioxide is used for the carbonation of beers and renders a sparkle and tangy taste while also preventing spoilage. Large-scale breweries typically install CO2 reclamation equipment in their breweries that capture the carbon dioxide generated during fermentation process. According to The Brewers of Europe, the European beer production in 2017 reached its eight-year high. The growing number of independent and microbreweries wis contributing to the growth of food-grade gases market.

Restraints: Strict Government Regulations to Meet Quality Standards
Legislations have been sanctioned in most countries in North America and Europe to protect food products from spoilage and contamination due to inferior manufacturing and refrigerated storage processes. Therefore, each country has appointed agencies to inspect consumer health issues and also inspect the type of material used to make sure they are safe for food & beverage operations. Also, by law, all gas cylinders supplied for beverage manufacturers must have a product traceability label on the gas cylinder, valve, or valve guard. Food-grade gas manufacturers need to abide by these laws.
The dominance of the carbon dioxide segment in the food-grade gases market is attributed to the growing number of microbreweries across the world
Carbon dioxide is used for refrigeration and cooling in solid (dry ice) and liquid forms. This is because it sublimates to gas at a very low temperature of -78.5 °C (-109.3 °F). It is widely used for carbonation in soft drinks, beers, and other alcoholic drinks. The gas has applications in conserving wine, grape juices, and other juices. Beverage-grade carbon dioxide, which is considered an ingredient in the beverage industry, should be compliant with the strongest regulations of the EC (E290) and International Society of Beverages Technologists (ISBT). Carbon dioxide is also used for Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP); it is injected and frequently removed to eliminate oxygen from the package. Due to the advancement in packaging technologies, the demand for carbon dioxide is projected to remain the highest in the food-grade gases market.
North America is estimated to dominate the food-grade gases market, in terms of value, in 2020
The microbrewery culture is also on the rise in the North American market. There are multiple microbreweries present in the region. These microbreweries require carbon dioxide for beer dispensing. Also, the North American soft drinks market is one of the largest, with the presence of all the big brands such as Coca-Cola and PepsiCo. The soft drinks industry is one of the largest users of food-grade carbon dioxide for the carbonation of beverages.
