Market Report I 2025-02-10 I 144 Pages I IMARC Group
The global fumaric acid market size reached USD 808.4 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 1,168.8 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.85% during 2025-2033. Increasing demand for processed food and beverages, the rising population, and the expanding pharmaceutical industry represent some of the key factors driving the market growth.
Fumaric acid is a naturally occurring organic acid found in various fruits and vegetables. It is made through the fermentation of glucose or sucrose by certain strains of fungi, such as Rhizopus oryzae. The resulting product is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and alcohol. It is also used in the food and beverage (F&B) and pharmaceutical industries as a food additive and acidity regulator. It is also used in producing synthetic resins and plastics, as well as to manufacture pharmaceuticals. One of its key advantages is its ability to improve the stability and shelf life of products. It also enhances the flavor of certain foods and helps balance the sweetness of sugary products. When compared to other food additives, such as citric acid, fumaric acid has a sourer taste and is less hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs less moisture from the air. Currently, there are two types of product variants: trans- and cis-fumaric acid.
Global Fumaric Acid Market Trends:
The global fumaric acid market is primarily driven by the increasing demand for processed food and beverages, coupled with the rising population and changing dietary patterns. This is further bolstered by the expanding pharmaceutical industry and the growing demand for fumaric acid in producing drugs, especially for treating psoriasis. Moreover, the escalating product usage as a food additive to enhance flavor, improve stability, and extend shelf life is stimulating the market growth. The surging popularity of convenience foods and ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages, the expanding construction industry, and the increasing adoption of unsaturated polyester resins are acting as other growth-inducing factors. Additionally, the surging awareness regarding the harmful effects of synthetic alternative fuels and the growing use of fumaric acid as a raw material for manufacturing automotive coatings and resins are fostering the market growth. Apart from this, the inflating disposable income and the increasing demand for personal care and cosmetic products are creating a positive outlook for the market.
