Calcium hydrogen sulphite, commonly referred to as calcium bisulphite, is a yellowish liquid with a sulphur dioxide odour. It is prepared from the combination of limestone and sulphuric acid. In the market, calcium hydrogen sulphide is primarily available in two grades - Industrial grade and Technical grade. These varieties of calcium hydrogen sulphite are used in food and beverage, textile, pulp and paper, water treatment, and other sectors.

In food and beverages industry, calcium hydrogen sulphite is prominently employed to increase the shelf life of food products. It deactivates the microbial cell and bacteria formation, preventing the discolouration and spoilage of the food items. Beer, canned fruits and vegetables, juices, jams, pickles, and other products employ food-grade calcium hydrogen sulphite as a preservative. The maximum allowed usage of calcium hydrogen sulphite also varies according to the food authorities of the particular country or region.

Historic (2017-2021) Vs Forecast (2022-2032) Market Outlook for Global Calcium Hydrogen Sulphite

The global Calcium Hydrogen Sulphite market witnessed a CAGR of 3.6% during the historic with a market value of US$ 790.8 Mn in 2021. However, as per the current estimates by FMI, the forecast growth outlook for Calcium Hydrogen Sulphite is to remain around 3.8% from 2022 to 2032. This growth in demand is attributed to the growth in various end-use industries. The rise in demand for calcium hydrogen sulphite as a food additive and as a bleaching agent in the paper and pulp sector is propelling the growth in the market. The growth of the calcium hydrogen sulphite market is supported by the wide availability of raw materials.

The global calcium hydrogen sulphite market is growing due to the essential features of sulphites which help food manufacturers to sustain their products fresh with extended shelf life. Some of the applications in which calcium hydrogen sulphite is widely used are meat, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, dried food products, fruits and vegetables etc. The concentration of its usage in various food products varies with its functions, which is mostly dependent on microbial activity or the presence of gram-negative bacteria.

Market Dynamics

Affordable pricing of calcium hydrogen sulphite drives the consumption from end-use markets

The key factors that drive the calcium hydrogen sulphite market are its low price and high demand from the end use industries. When compared to alternatives, calcium hydrogen sulphite is more affordable, which is increasing the global consumption from the market. The global calcium hydrogen sulphite market is being driven by customers' growing demand for ready-to-eat food and producers' management of the crucial component affecting the shelf life of the food. Calcium hydrogen sulphite is recognized as safe by independent food authorities in several nations, which enables the producers of calcium hydrogen sulphite to seize possibilities and increase their production capacity.

Additionally, the market is being driven by calcium hydrogen sulphite's multi-functional properties, such as its ability to prevent oxidative rancidity and other oxidative reactions in foods like cereals, limit enzymatic browning reactions stabilizes colour, and effectively inactivate microbiological conditions.

Government regulations on usage of calcium hydrogen sulphite are likely to affect the market growth

Despite of these market drivers, the global calcium hydrogen sulphide market is subjected to some restraints that may have a negative impact on the market. For instance, several independent agencies have put restrictions on the usage of calcium hydrogen sulphite. The use of calcium hydrogen sulphites in liquors makes it difficult to recover and restricts its usage in industrial applications. In view of this Australian and New Zealand governments have banned on the calcium hydrogen sulphite for usage in industrial as well as food applications. Regulations like this limits the calcium hydrogen sulphite market's growth and expansion.

Segment-wise Analysis

What are the wide applications of industrial grade calcium hydrogen sulphide?

The industrial grade calcium hydrogen sulphide is widely used for industrial applications. The textile, pulp & paper, and water treatment industries use industrial-grade calcium hydrogen sulphite. It neutralizes chlorine and is employed as a disinfectant in the water treatment process.

Similar to this, pulp and paper and the textile sectors each employ industrial-grade products as bleaching agents. In the pulp and paper production process, calcium hydrogen sulphite is introduced to the digester along with wood pulp dissolving cellulose, pulp components, including lignin, for later use in the creation of paper.

How Food & Beverage Industry is driving the consumption of Calcium Hydrogen Sulphide?

As the food and beverage industry grows, it is anticipated that food-grade calcium hydrogen sulphite will hold a significant portion of the market over the projection period. Food preservative demand is being driven by rising demand for ready-to-eat meals. Calcium hydrogen sulphide, being a preferred choice for food preservatives, is used in large quantities for packaged food products. However, the food industry is a regulated one, and thus, the calcium hydrogen sulphide.

There are some usage restrictions for calcium hydrogen sulphide bounded by its maximum allowable limit in food materials. Each country has a different maximum allowed limit. Although, due to modernization in the food & beverage industry, the requirement for food preservatives is growing year by year; thereby driving the consumption of calcium hydrogen sulphide.

Region-wise Analysis

Why has Asia emerged as a prime market for Calcium Hydrogen Sulphite?

Asia Pacific is seeing a significant growth in the end-use industries of calcium hydrogen sulphide. Rising urbanization and industrial growth in the region has driven the demand for water treatment as well as food & beverage industry. This growth brings the increase in consumption of calcium hydrogen sulphide for their wide scope of applications.

Abundant availability of raw materials and economical production of calcium hydrogen sulphide is expected to boost the market in forecast period. Due to this, Asia Pacific is expected to experience faster CAGR growth than the rest of the world over the forecast period for the worldwide calcium hydrogen sulphite.

How Calcium Hydrogen Sulphite Market will grow in North America & Europe?

Europe and North America are predicted to come after Asia Pacific as a result of the strict rules governing the food business in these two regions. The food and beverage sector in Europe is fiercely competitive and prioritizes products that are of the highest quality, are safe, and are governed by strict laws.

In North America, there is a sizable, intricate, and highly regulated food sector. Due to this, the prime end-user calcium hydrogen sulphide are seen in the industrial applications of calcium hydrogen sulphide rather than food preservatives. The market for calcium hydrogen sulphide will prominently be driven by growth of the water treatment and paper & pulp industry in the region.
