Food antioxidants are the molecules that neutralize the free radicals and destabilize the molecules to protect cells from damage. Some major food antioxidants are mainly found in fruits, vegetables, vitamins such as E and C, and other plant-based foods. The primary types of food antioxidants are natural and synthetic antioxidants. They are available in dry and liquid forms. The food antioxidants are derived from fruits and vegetables, oils, spices and herbs, botanical extracts, and gallic acid and are used in fats and oils, prepared foods, prepared meat and poultry, seafood, bakery and confectionery, plant-based alternatives, and nutraceuticals. The global food antioxidants market is segmented - 1) By Type: Natural, Synthetic 2) By Form: Dry or Liquid 3) By Source: Fruits and Vegetables, Oils, Spices, and Herbs, Botanical Extracts, Gallic Acid, Other Sources 4) By Application: Fats and Oils, Prepared Foods, Prepared Meat and Poultry, Seafood, Bakery and Confectionery, Plant-Based Alternatives, Nutraceuticals, Other Applications The global food antioxidants market size grew from $1.67 billion in 2022 to $1.82 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%.

Eco-friendly food packaging refers to a process in which food is packaged using materials that are safe for the environment and can be degradable. The materials must be contained in order to prevent tampering or contamination from physical, chemical, or biological sources; active packaging is the most popular type of packaging used to keep food products safe. The main types of eco-friendly food packaging are recycled content packaging, reusable packaging, and degradable packaging. The degradable eco-friendly food packaging is a substitute for petrochemical-based polymers. The common biodegradable materials used in food packaging are chitosan, starch, gelatin cellulose, and polylactic acid. The different materials include paper and paperboard, metal, glass, plastic, and others and use various techniques such as active packaging, molded packaging, multipurpose packaging, and alternate fiber packaging. The various applications include food and beverages, bakery and confectionery, dairy products, meat products, fruits and vegetables, convenience food, and others. The global eco-friendly food packaging market is segmented - 1) By Type: Recycled Content Packaging, Reusable Packaging, Degradable Packaging 2) By Material: Paper And Paperboard, Metal, Glass, Plastic, Other Materials 3) By Technique: Active Packaging, Molded Packaging, Multipurpose Packaging, Alternate Fiber Packaging 4) By Application: Food And Beverages, Bakery And Confectionery, Dairy Products, Meat Products, Fruits And Vegetables, Convenience Food, Other Applications The global eco-friendly food packaging market size grew from $213.26 billion in 2022 to $229.38 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%.

The eco-friendly food packaging market size is expected to grow to $316.31 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 8.4%. The growing consumer awareness about the drawbacks of using single-use and non-degradable plastic products for food packaging is driving the growth of the eco-friendly food packaging market. Widespread usage of single-use and non-degradable plastic packaging products affects the environment adversely. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose in a landfill and for such a long period the plastic waste will be there in the surroundings and cause several harm to the environment and ultimately harms the life of plants, animals, and human beings. For instance, according to the World Economic Forum report, countries such as Germany and Austria are the leaders in recycling waste at the rate of 56% and 52% respectively. In addition, some countries, such as Wales, have set lofty recycling goals for themselves. Wales is aiming for zero waste by 2050, while the EU is considering setting a new 2030 target of at least 65%.
