What is Citric Acid?
Citric acid is a weak organic acid naturally found in citrus fruits such as lemons, oranges, and limes. It is a white, crystalline powder with a tart flavor and is widely used in the food and beverage industry as a flavoring and preservative agent. Citric acid acts as a natural preservative by controlling pH and preventing microbial growth, making it ideal for use in soft drinks, jams, candies, and sauces. Beyond food, it serves various roles in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and cleaning products due to its chelating and descaling properties. In the pharmaceutical sector, it is used to stabilize active ingredients, while in cosmetics, it helps adjust pH levels and acts as an antioxidant. Citric acid is also an environmentally friendly alternative in household cleaners, capable of removing limescale and stains. Commercially, it is predominantly produced through fermentation using Aspergillus niger, making it cost-effective and sustainable for mass production.

Market Trend and Drivers of Citric Acid:
The citric acid market is being driven by its rising demand across food and non-food industries. In the food and beverage sector, increasing consumer preference for clean-label, natural, and organic ingredients has boosted citric acid consumption as a natural preservative and flavor enhancer. The surge in processed and convenience foods, especially in emerging economies, further accelerates demand. Additionally, growing health consciousness has increased the use of citric acid in sugar-free and functional beverages. In non-food applications, the trend toward eco-friendly and biodegradable cleaning solutions has fueled its use in household and industrial cleaners. The pharmaceutical and personal care sectors also contribute to market growth due to citric acid’s role in stabilizing formulations and regulating pH levels. Moreover, the increasing ban on harmful chemicals in various applications is pushing manufacturers to switch to safer alternatives like citric acid.
