How Big is the Butyric Acid Market?

The global butyric acid market size reached US$ 205.6 Million in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 453.7 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 13.9% during 2023-2028.

Butyric acid, also known as butanoic acid, is a saturated short-chain fatty acid with the chemical formula C4H8O2. It is found naturally in various animal fats and plant oils, and it is also a byproduct of the fermentation process in the human gut. Butyric acid is a key component of the esters that give flavor to some cheeses and is used as a food additive to impart a buttery flavor. In industrial applications, it serves as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals, plastics, and pharmaceuticals. Its salts, known as butyrates, are used in animal feed to improve gut health. Butyric acid also has potential health benefits for humans, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.

What Are the Growth Prospects and Trends in the Butyric Acid Industry?

The rising use of butyric acid as a supplement in animal feed represents one of the key factors driving the growth of the market across the globe. It aids in improving gut health and nutrient absorption in livestock, which leads to better weight gain and meat quality. The unique buttery flavor imparted by butyric acid finds applications in the food and beverage industry. The expanding food and beverage (F&B) industry, coupled with the increasing demand for natural flavors is contributing to the growth of the market. The rising use of butyric acid as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals is boosting the growth of the market. Increasing environmental concerns are leading to the search for sustainable alternatives to traditional plastics. Butyric acid serves as a building block in the production of bioplastics, and this application is gaining traction. Governments and regulatory bodies are increasingly encouraging the use of organic acids like butyric acid in place of antibiotics in animal feed, which is fueling the market growth.
