预计到 2025 年,甲酸市场规模将达到 110 万吨,到 2030 年将达到 133 万吨,预测期(2025-2030 年)复合年增长率为 3.91%。

对无抗生素动物饲料的需求不断增长,生物基生产投资加速增加,以及皮革、橡胶和製药等行业的应用稳步推进,共同支撑着这一成长趋势。牲畜饲料保鲜已占全球消费量的37.04%,随着生产商寻求降低碳足迹,生物基路线正以4.72%的复合年增长率快速扩张。亚太地区引领着区域成长势头,该地区丰富的生产能力和扶持政策预计将推动其到2030年实现4.61%的区域复合年增长率。製程创新,特别是电化学二氧化碳-甲酸转化技术,随着先导计画走向商业化规模,可望进一步重塑供应经济格局。
对无抗生素畜牧生产的需求使得甲酸成为理想的防腐剂和抗菌剂。在鸡饲料中添加4公斤/吨的甲酸,可以将沙门氏菌的数量降低到无法检测的水平,从而保障食品安全并加强监管合规性。欧洲食品安全局允许在猪饲料中添加高达12,000毫克/公斤的甲酸,在鸡饲料中添加高达10,000毫克/公斤的甲酸,这提供了法律确定性并加速了甲酸的应用。这些因素共同推动了饲料产业甲酸消费量的成长,使其成长速度超过了整体市场成长率。
在高檔皮革生产中,甲酸用于将镀液pH值调节至3.8-4.2,与矿物酸相比,甲酸能促进铬的固定并降低盐负荷。中国和印度的製革厂供应着全球大部分皮革,它们越来越多地要求甲酸的纯度达到85%或更高,这为能够保证产品品质稳定的供应商创造了溢价机会。
在甲酸甲酯水解生产中,甲醇占生产成本的60-70%,因此与天然气价格相关的波动正在挤压净利率,并使长期供应协议的签订变得复杂。生产商正在透过试验二氧化碳电解还原路线来规避风险,如果可再生能源价格持续下跌,这些路线有望消除对原料的依赖。
饲料和青贮添加剂将占甲酸市场最大份额,到2024年将占全球销售量的37.04%。预计这一份额将以4.21%的复合年增长率增长,这主要得益于对抗菌生长促进剂的监管限制。在禽类饲料中,添加量为4公斤/吨时检测到了沙门氏菌,增强了养殖户的信心,也提高了零售商的接受度。皮革鞣製仍然是第二大应用领域,利用了甲酸的pH值控制和铬浸渍性能;而纺织厂则看重其在染浴中的缓衝能力。对甲酸纯度要求较高的医药和特种化学品应用领域也正在兴起,并占了较高的价格。
成长前景也延伸至天然橡胶加工领域,甲酸因其更快的凝固动力学和更高的内聚拉伸强度而被广泛应用。清洗和除垢领域也占据稳定的市场份额,但规模较小,这得益于甲酸溶解矿物垢的能力,以及其比无机酸更低的环境影响。诸如SoftAcids之类的安全配方正在扩大小型营运商的使用范围,预示着在预测期内市场需求将持续成长。
全球甲酸市场按应用领域(饲料和青贮添加剂、皮革鞣製及其他)、生产方法(甲酸甲酯水解法、羰基化法及其他)、终端用户行业(农业、皮革和鞋类及其他)以及地区(亚太地区、北美地区及其他)进行细分。市场预测以吨为单位。
亚太地区将占据甲酸市场最大份额,到2024年将占全球消费量的53.21%。中国主导该地区的甲酸供应,透过整合甲醇和下游化工产业,确保了成本竞争力。在出口奖励政策和国内皮革产量成长的推动下,印度生产商正在建造新工厂,以提高该地区的甲酸自给率。日本和韩国为电子产品和医药合成提供高纯度原料,而印尼则透过开拓橡胶产业,进一步推动了甲酸市场的成长。
北美是第二大市场,这主要得益于其庞大的动物性蛋白质产业以及政府对二氧化碳利用研发的大力投入。美国在电化学生产设备的试点部署方面处于领先地位,目标是在未来十年内实现商业化规模生产。加拿大的需求主要与粮食和畜牧业生产有关,而墨西哥的皮革和纺织品产业对二氧化碳的需求也不断增长。
欧洲严格的饲料和化学品法规,加上雄心勃勃的脱碳目标,正在刺激对生物基製程的投资。欧盟对进口化学品的反倾销措施将加剧竞争,并鼓励本地产能扩张。南美洲将围绕巴西不断扩张的畜牧业发展,而中东将受益于鼓励投资特种化学品的多元化政策。随着亚洲出口成长和西方向低碳供应链转型,跨区域贸易流动可能会更加顺畅。
The Formic Acid Market size is estimated at 1.10 Million tons in 2025, and is expected to reach 1.33 Million tons by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.91% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

Rising demand for antibiotic-free animal feed, accelerating investment in bio-based production, and steady uptake across leather, rubber, and pharmaceutical applications underpin this growth path. Animal feed preservation already captures 37.04% of global consumption, and bio-based routes are expanding at 4.72% CAGR as producers seek lower-carbon footprints. Regional momentum is led by Asia-Pacific, where abundant manufacturing capacity and supportive policies are expected to secure a 4.61% regional CAGR through 2030. Process innovation-most notably electrochemical CO2-to-formic acid conversion-could further reshape supply economics as pilot projects move toward commercial scale
Demand for antibiotic-free livestock production has positioned formic acid as a preferred preservative and antimicrobial. At 4 kg/ton in poultry diets, the acid can drive Salmonella counts to undetectable levels, safeguarding food safety and reinforcing regulatory compliance. The European Food Safety Authority allows inclusion rates up to 12,000 mg/kg for pigs and 10,000 mg/kg for poultry, providing legal certainty that accelerates adoption. These factors collectively lift feed-segment consumption above overall formic acid market growth.
Premium leather production relies on formic acid to adjust bath pH to 3.8-4.2, accelerating chrome fixation while lowering salt loads compared with mineral acids. Chinese and Indian tanneries, which supply a sizable portion of global hides, increasingly specify >= 85% purity, opening price-premium opportunities for suppliers able to guarantee consistency.
Because methanol represents 60-70% of production costs in methyl formate hydrolysis, natural-gas-linked price swings compress margins and complicate long-term supply contracts. Producers are hedging by piloting CO2 electro-reduction routes that could break feedstock dependence if renewable power prices keep falling.

Animal feed & silage additives controlled 37.04% of global volume in 2024, giving the segment the largest slice of formic acid market size. Supported by regulatory curbs on antibiotic growth promoters, this share is projected to widen at a 4.21% CAGR. In poultry rations, inclusion rates of 4 kg/ton eliminate detectable Salmonella, boosting farmer confidence and retailer acceptance. Leather tanning remains the second-largest application, capitalizing on the acid's pH control and chrome-penetration benefits, while textile mills value its dye-bath buffering capability. Pharmaceutical and specialty chemical uses are emerging, where high-purity requirements yield premium prices.
Growth prospects extend to natural rubber processing, which adopts formic acid for faster coagulation kinetics and higher aggregate tensile strength. Cleaning and descaling occupy a steady but smaller niche, leveraging the acid's mineral-scale dissolving power at lower environmental impact than stronger inorganic acids. Safety-engineered formulations such as SoftAcid broaden access among smaller operations, suggesting incremental demand upside over the forecast period.
The Global Formic Acid Market is Segmented by Application (Animal Feed and Silage Additives, Leather Tanning, and More), Production Method (Methyl Formate Hydrolysis, Carbonylation Technology, and Other Production Methods), End-Use Industry (Agriculture, Leather and Footwear, and More) and Geography (Asia-Pacific, North America, and More). The Market Forecasts are Provided in Terms of Volume (tons).
Asia-Pacific held 53.21% of global consumption in 2024, giving the region the largest slice of formic acid market share. China dominates regional supply, leveraging integrated methanol and downstream chemical complexes to ensure cost competitiveness. India's producers, supported by export incentives and growing domestic leather output, are building new plants that lift regional self-sufficiency. Japan and South Korea source high-purity material for electronics and pharmaceutical synthesis, while Indonesia drives incremental growth through rubber-sector uptake.
North America is the second-largest region, propelled by a vast animal-protein sector and government funding for CO2-utilization R&D. The United States leads pilot deployment of electrochemical production units, eyeing commercial scale by decade-end. Canada's demand is tied mainly to grain and livestock production, whereas Mexico sees rising leather and textile usage.
Europe combines strict feed and chemical regulations with aggressive decarbonization targets, spurring investment in bio-based processes. EU anti-dumping measures on imported chemicals intensify competition and encourage local capacity expansion. South America's growth centers on Brazil's expanding livestock sector, while the Middle East benefits from diversification agendas that encourage specialty-chemical investments. Cross-regional trade flows will likely stay fluid as Asia grows exports and western regions pivot to low-carbon supply chains.
