Increasing health distresses among consumers for contamination and safety of nutritive products have enforced companies to use food grade industrial gases in packaging and storing applications. Industrial gases are a group of gases which are industrially prepared specifically to use in several industries, such as petrochemical, chemical, oil and gases, food, water and mining industry etc. Food grade gases are well-defined as gases which are used in food industries as a processing utility or preservative.
The food-grade industrial gases market is expected to grow at a modest rate in the next few years. The market size is estimated to rise due to the increasing consumption of packaged foods and technologies in packing of food products. Increasing consumer demand for packed foods of better quality, variability, and freshness is driving the market for food-grade industrial gases. Owing to this rising demand, packing technologies such as reformed atmospheric packaging and chilling & freezing are gradually being adopted by food & beverage producers. Packaging process is difficult with the use of one gas and avoiding interaction with other gases which is posing a challenge for manufacturers.
