Global Citric Acid Market

According to a new report by Expert Market Research, the global citric acid market reached a volume of 2.70 Million Tons in 2023 and is further expected to reach 3.86 Million Tons by 2032.

Citric acid is widely used in beverages as an organic acidulant, for controlling the growth of organism, adjusting pH and enhancing flavours. It is also used in bathroom cleaners and detergents as it chelates with metals in hard water, producing foam which helps in removing stains without the need of softening the water. Owing to its safe and non-toxic nature, pleasant acid taste, high water solubility, chelating and buffering properties, citric acid is also used in pharmaceuticals including cosmetics. According to a new report by Expert Market Research, the global citric acid market reached a volume of 2.70 Million Tons in 2023 and is further expected to reach 3.86 Million Tons by 2032.
