Drivers and Opportunities:
Shift toward convenient packaged foods
Food-grade gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) are mainly used in the packaging of convenience foods to enhance the shelf-life of fresh food products. Rising health concerns among consumers, especially in North America and Europe, have led to a shift toward the consumption of safer, healthier, and higher-quality food products.
Owing to the rising concerns about food safety amongst consumers, food manufacturers are focusing on various advanced packaging technologies such as oxygen scavengers, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), controlled atmosphere packaging (CAP), and active packaging. These technologies help in maintaining the levels of gases such as oxygen and nitrogen inside the packaging, prevent the oxidation of food products, and reduce the need for additives while maintaining product quality.
The global food-grade gases market is mainly driven by the increasing demand for packaged food. On-the-go lifestyles have emerged because of several factors. Longer working hours & commuting time and the growing number of smaller households contribute to the increased demand for convenient single-serving or packaged food products. The increase in the utilization of these packaging technologies in the food packaging industry will lead to the growth of the food-grade gases market.
Increasing consumer preference for frozen and chilled food products propels the market demand.
The increasing popularity of shelf-stable foods among consumers on a global level is expected to propel the demand for frozen and chilled food products over the next few years. According to an article published in Progressive Grocer in August 2021, the popularity of these foods including breakfast meals rose by 10.9%, and dinners/entrees were up by 4.9%. frozen meat, up 2.7%, and processed chicken (up 10.4%). Moreover, the utilization of these products by numerous end users such as full-service restaurants, hotels & resorts, and quick-service restaurants will further support the growth of this market.
Increasing demand for frozen sea food in countries away from the coast are escalating the market for food-grade gases. Additionally, the market is also expected to expand due to the increasing import and export of various packaged food products. For instance, in October 2021, Amul, the Indian food retailer expanded its frozen and ready-to-eat food offerings including food such as frozen potatoes, paneer, cheese parathas, and patties.
This growth is also fuelled by new legislation in the retail environment, which gives foreign investors and multinational retail chains access to these markets. These retail chains have organized distribution channels across these markets, which provides opportunities for setting up food & beverage industries here. The growing importance of food safety and the quality of processed foods in these countries has increased the need to prevent the deterioration of food with the use of proper packaging technologies, which has increased investments in refrigerated storage facilities.

Segments:
The nitrogen gas segment is estimated to register a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. The quick cooling/freezing properties of nitrogen help retain the quality of products by preventing dehydration and crumbling. These properties drive the demand for nitrogen in the food & beverage industry.
Nitrogen is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, inert gas, which is why it is widely used in the food & beverage industry. Nitrogen displaces oxygen and decreases moisture inside of packaged food. Moisture in packaged foods creates bacteria, mold, and mildew, which is why nitrogen is necessary for the food preservation process. This gas also preserves freshness and retains nutrients, which helps the food or beverage last longer. Larger quantities of nitrogen may be required than oxygen or vice versa, depending on what food to preserve. Red meats tend to lose their color when they are deprived of oxygen, so less nitrogen is used when packaging red meat. On the other hand, coffee and beer require more nitrogen because it improves the quality of these drinks. Beer needs nitrogen to create foam, and coffee is dispensed with a higher pressure when brewed with nitrogen.
Some other applications of nitrogen are for sparging wines and filling the headspaces of various beverages to create an inert atmosphere and delay spoilage. Nitrogen is classified as a food additive when it is in direct contact with food and is designated an “E” number; the nomenclature for nitrogen is “E941.”.
