Food Irradiation Market

Gamma Radiation Remains Preferred by Source

By source, the gamma radiation segment remains preferred. This technique is highly popular due to its enhanced safety, effectiveness and reliability in detecting and eliminating contaminants in foodstuffs.

Although growth prospects seem sluggish in the short-run due to the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of limited testing, they are expected to pick up pace post 2021 with the resumption of on-premise working arrangements. The gamma irradiation technique is highly popular in treating exotic fruits and vegetables.

Ozone Treatment Considered Highly Effective

Food manufacturers are increasingly looking towards incorporating ozone treatment to treat a wide range of foodstuffs, ranging from fruits and vegetables to spices, herbs and meat.

As an environmentally friendly disinfectant, ozone is being considered as an alternative to chlorine sanitizers.

Ozone-enriched water destroys microbes as effectively as chlorine and also eliminates the need for personnel to handle, mix or dispose of harsh chemicals for sanitization. Additionally, it leaves behind no residue upon contact, as ozone readily reverts to oxygen.

Food Irradiation Market- Report Scope

Key questions answered in the report

• Identify the primary source of food irradiation.

  Gamma radiation is expected to emerge as the main source of food irradiation in the upcoming forecast period. High degree of safety and reliability of testing is considered a primary driver of the segment’s growth.

• What drives the global food irradiation market?

  According to FMI’s analysis, increasing incidences of food adulteration, contamination and poisoning amongst consumers is accelerating growth prospects for food irradiation technologies, the objective being the provision of clean and safe food.

  Additionally, rising demand for sterile foods across healthcare settings is also catapulting growth. Sterile foods are especially needed to boost immunity of patients suffering from debilitating conditions such as AIDS and cancer.

• Analyze COVID-19’s impact on the growth projections.

  The COVID-19 pandemic has ushered in a global recession, which has also impacted the food irradiation market. Government imposed lockdowns have decelerated laboratory testing of foodstuffs, causing a downswing.

  This sluggishness is anticipated to remain until the last quarter of 2021, after which the predicted growth trajectory is expected to become restored for the remainder of the forecast period.

• Which is the largest market for food irradiation?

  Asia Pacific is likely to be the fastest growing region, attributed to a rapidly exploding population base which has led to increased demand for clean and high quality foods.
