Market perspective
Vanillic Acid (CAS 121-34-6) is a benzoic acid derivative used as a flavoring agent. It is an oxidized form of vanillin produced during the conversion of vanillin to ferulic acid. Vanillic Acid can be used into pharmaceutical intermediates and flavors & fragrances.
Vanillic acid industry has a few manufacturers. The main players are Solvay, Donglian Nankai FlavorDlflavor, Quzhou Mingfeng Chemical. Solvay is the largest manufacturers with about 73% market share.
In consumption market, the global consumption value on the downward trend. Due to raw material synthesis vanillin, oversupply, prices fell. Europe and China are the mainly consumption regions due to the bigger demand of downstream applications. These regions occupied 80% of the global consumption volume in total.
