  • Latest News- Caproic Acid Market: Personal care is expected to lead the Application segment during 2025-2029

    The Caproic Acid Market is being driven by Rising demand for personal care and food flavoring products

    The Caproic Acid Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 73.5 million. The global caproic acid market is poised for growth due to its increasing application in the food and beverage industry. Caproic acid and its derivatives offer antimicrobial properties, making them valuable additions to food packaging materials. By inhibiting the growth of spoilage microorganisms, these compounds extend the shelf life of packaged foods. Furthermore, caproic acid esters can enhance food and beverage flavors by being incorporated into packaging materials, contributing to flavor retention and release. Additionally, caproic acid's antioxidant properties can help protect food products from oxidative damage, further increasing its market potential.
