Description
Malic Acid Market by Type (D-Malic Acid, DL-Malic Acid, L-Malic Acid), Extraction Process (Chemical Synthesis, Natural Extraction), End User - Global Forecast 2024-2030
The Malic Acid Market size was estimated at USD 630.20 million in 2023 and expected to reach USD 681.00 million in 2024, at a CAGR 8.15% to reach USD 1,090.84 million by 2030.
Malic acid, known as hydroxybutanedioic acid, is an organic compound belonging to the dicarboxylic acid family. It is a naturally occurring acid in various fruits and vegetables, especially apples. This dicarboxylic acid plays a crucial role in the Krebs cycle, a critical energy-producing process in living cells. In addition to its natural prevalence, malic acid is industrially synthesized and widely used in the food & beverage industry as an acidulant, enhancing flavor profiles and preserving the longevity of products. Its applications extend beyond culinary uses, finding importance in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics and as a supplement for its potential health benefits, including improving skin health and managing symptoms of certain health conditions. The growing consumption of convenience food & beverages globally and increasing application in pain reduction and muscle soreness for people with chronic diseases drive the market growth. However, probable side effects such as itching and nausea for people on supplements with fluctuating raw material costs hinder market adoption. Nevertheless, emerging applications in the pharmaceutical sector in producing medicinal products, such as cough syrups, with the development of novel food and beverage products incorporating malic acid, are anticipated to create potential opportunities for malic acid market growth.
