Food preservatives are substances that are added to food products to prevent spoilage and extend their shelf life. They help to inhibit the growth of bacteria, yeast, and mold, which can cause food to spoil or become unsafe to eat. There are two types of food preservatives: natural and synthetic.
Natural preservatives include substances such as salt, vinegar, and sugar, which have been used for centuries to preserve food. Synthetic preservatives, on the other hand, are chemical compounds that have been developed specifically for use in food products. These may include antioxidants, antimicrobials, and other types of preservatives.
The use of food preservatives is widespread in the food industry, as they help to ensure that food products remain safe and fresh for longer periods of time. They are commonly used in processed foods, such as canned foods, baked goods, and snacks, as well as in meat and poultry products.
The global food preservatives market is driven by factors such as increasing demand for convenience foods, growing awareness of food safety and hygiene, and the need to reduce food waste. However, the market also faces challenges such as regulatory restrictions on the use of certain preservatives, consumer demand for natural and organic food products, and concerns about the potential health effects of synthetic preservatives.
