Preservatives are food ingredients used to extend the shelf life of food products by preventing the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and yeast. They are used in a wide variety of food products, including dairy, meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, and processed foods. Common preservatives include salt, sugar, vinegar, and various chemical compounds such as benzoates, sorbates, and propionates. Preservatives are used to reduce the risk of food spoilage and foodborne illnesses. They can also help to maintain the flavor, texture, and color of food products. In addition, preservatives can help to reduce the amount of waste generated by food products, as they can extend the shelf life of food products and reduce the need for frequent restocking. The preservative market is highly competitive, with a wide range of companies offering a variety of preservatives. Some of the major players in the market include BASF, Cargill, DowDuPont, Kerry Group, and Tate & Lyle. Show Less Read more
