Benzenecarboxylic Acid Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers:

• High Utilization of Benzenecarboxylic Acid

The rise in demand for benzenecarboxylic acid in the food and beverage industry, healthcare industry and other industries are the major factors likely to drive market growth during the forecast period. With growing health awareness, consumers gradually gravitate toward better food and beverage options. As a result, low-calorie, gluten-free, sugar-free, and organic food products, particularly packaged food, are gaining appeal among customers. It is also commonly used to preserve acidic foods and beverages, including as jams, fruit juices, and carbonated beverages. In the chemical industry, benzenecarboxylic acid is used to make a variety of phenols. It's widely used in cosmetics and personal care items like toothpaste and mouthwash as a preservative. Its use in a variety of ointments to treat fungal skin diseases like ringworm and athlete's foot has boosted global demand. Therefore, the market for benzenecarboxylic acid is expected to be aided by the increased demand across various end use industries globally.

The constant urbanization, increasing trend for plant-based and organic goods, and the user lifestyle change will further propelled the growth rate of the benzenecarboxylic acid market. Additionally, the consumer shift toward better lifestyles and packaging advances is projected to bolster the market's growth.

Opportunities

• Increasing Food Processing Units and Other Advancements

Furthermore, the increasing number of food and beverage processing units in developing nations and substitution phthalate plasticizers with non-phthalate plasticizers further extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. Additionally, the end-user industries are actively looking for innovation in benzoic acid will further expand the future growth of the benzenecarboxylic acid market.

Restraints/Challenges

• Limited Usage

The limited use of benzenecarboxylic acid as a food preservative in developed economies, on the other hand, may pose a significant obstacle to the benzenecarboxylic acid market's growth in the coming years.

• Regulations and Ban On Benzenecarboxylic Acid

Under normal circumstances, benzoic acid is stable and non-toxic. Benzoic acid can pose a health risk despite the lack of occupational exposure limits. Skin allergies are possible as a result of high-concentration benzoic acid exposure, especially in vulnerable people. Benzoic acid may also have to be contained and disposed of as hazardous waste. As a result, some nations around the world have banned or restricted the use of benzoic acid, particularly in food and beverage products. Therefore, this factor is estimated to challenge the benzenecarboxylic acid market growth rate.

COVID-19 Impact on Benzenecarboxylic Acid Market

The outbreak of coronavirus had a negative impact on the benzenecarboxylic acid market. Due to supply chain and logistics concerns, the COVID-19 crisis created multiple barriers for chemical makers. In addition, several manufacturing facilities were compelled to close or operate at reduced capacity, resulting in decreasing material production. Several obstacles for the benzoic acid business may have arisen due to a labor shortage caused by regulatory limitations. However, sales of packaged goods and beverages have remained stable, and in some cases have even increased, as a result of panic shopping by consumers ahead of the lockdown restrictions. When retail stores and outlets were forced to close or function for a short time, packaged food sales continued to rise as more consumers in emerging countries turned to online shopping channels. Because of a labour shortage, the production of processed foods and beverages was halted, lowering demand for benzoic acid, which is utilized as a preservative in these products. When all other businesses are in turmoil, the pharmaceutical industry, on the other hand, is still operating normally. Because benzoic acid is used in the treatment of antifungal diseases, there is still a demand for it even in this time of crisis.
