The global food grade alcohol market has been growing steadily over the past few years. Food grade alcohol refers to ethanol or ethyl alcohol that is produced and processed in accordance with good manufacturing practices. It is used as an ingredient in food products, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals where it acts as a solvent, antimicrobial agent, and preservative. Growing health consciousness among consumers and increasing demand for processed and packaged food & beverages have been driving the use of food grade alcohols. Moreover, alcohol’s ability to extract flavors and maintain the quality and freshness of food is also fueling its demand from the food industry. However, strict regulations regarding the production and use of food grade alcohol poses a challenge to market players.
