The carbon dioxide segment is estimated to account for the largest share, in terms of value, by type, in 2018

Based on type, the food-grade gases market is segmented into carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and others. The carbon dioxide segment is estimated to account for the largest market share in 2018 as carbon dioxide is used for almost all major applications like packaging, freezing & chilling, and carbonation.

Further, carbon dioxide is being used in the softening of water to avoid corrosion problems in long water distribution lines and also in producing potable drinking water. Due to the huge demand from the microbreweries and other carbonated beverage manufacturers, the carbon dioxide segment holds the largest market share.

The beverages segment, by end-use, is estimated to witness the fastest growth in the food grade gases market in 2018

By end-use, the food-grade gases market is segmented into meat, poultry, and seafood products; dairy & frozen products; beverages; fruits & vegetables; convenience food products; bakery & confectionery products; and others. The beverages segment is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR due to the use of large volumes of food-grade gases, especially carbon dioxide and nitrogen, for carbonation and blanketing. As the demand for carbonated beverages increases, there is a simultaneous growth in the market for food-grade gases.
