Sulfur Dioxide Market Segment Analysis - By Application

Preservatives segment holds the largest share in the Sulfur Dioxide market. This chemical compound finds wide use in the food and beverage industry as an antioxidant and as a preservative. Sulfur dioxide is used as a food preservative for some fruits and vegetables. It becomes a liquid under pressure. Sulphur dioxide is widely used in the food and drinks industries for its properties as a preservative and antioxidant. Whilst harmless to healthy persons when used in recommended concentrations, it can induce asthma when inhaled or ingested by sensitive subjects, even in high dilution. Sulfur dioxide might not sound good enough to eat, but this food preservative does make its way into a number of edibles, including dried fruits such as raisins, dried apricots and prunes.

Sulfur Dioxide Market Segment Analysis - By End Use

Food and Beverages sector has been the primary market for Sulfur Dioxide. Sulphur dioxide and sulphites are permitted in a wide range of foods including dried fruits, breakfast sausages and burger meats. When fruits and vegetables are processed to food products such as wine and snacks, in most cases sulphur dioxide (SO2) has a finger in the pie. The main function of this additive is the prevention of enzymatic and non-enzymatic browning in foods, especially fruit and vegetable products. In addition, sulphur dioxide has strong antimicrobial capacity and preserves against microbial spoilage. Sulphur dioxides and sulphites are chemical compounds that can be naturally occurring (sulphur dioxide is present in wine or beer, for example) and are most commonly used as preservatives in a wide range of foods. They are used to extend the shelf life of products, as well as to kill bacteria, and are popular due to their ability to maintain product colour and have a softening effect – particularly useful in the dried fruit market.


Sulfur Dioxide Market Segment Analysis - By Geography

APAC dominated the Sulfur Dioxide market with a share of more than xx%, followed by North America and Europe. China and India re the major countries in this region. Sulfur dioxide is the chemical compound with the formula SO₂. It is a toxic gas responsible for the smell of burnt matches. The consumption of sulfur dioxide in the food and beverages industry is increasing as the demand for packaged and processed food material is on the rise. The production of sulfur dioxide for the food and beverages sector is projected to display an attractive growth rate by the end of the forecast period.
