The market for monocalcium phosphate has significant opportunities to grow due to its increasing application in several industries, including the food industry, as well as the agriculture sector.  

Market Overview

The global industry of monocalcium phosphate is focused on the production and sale of monocalcium phosphate (MCP), which is a highly bioavailable source of calcium and phosphorus mainly used in animal feed and fertilizers. Monocalcium phosphate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(H2PO4)2, commonly found as the monohydrate. It is a colourless solid salt form, mainly used as superphosphate fertilizers and is also a popular leavening agent used in the food sector. Food safety authorities like the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) regulate the use of MCP in food and feed production, ensuring safety for human consumption. The phosphorus and calcium content of monocalcium phosphate are essential for the growth and bone health of animals when used in moderate amounts in animal feed.  

Innovation and market expansion are anticipated as a result of major players' growing research on environmentally friendly preparation of calcium phosphates by using renewable sources. The crucial role of monocalcium phosphate in sustainable agriculture, and in organic animal food production for enhancing animal nutrition, is driving a huge surge in the global monocalcium phosphate market.
