Why Asia Pacific Countries are witnessing a Strong Demand for Food Tester Equipment these Years?

As per the food tester market analysis report by FMI, the market is anticipated to develop at the quickest rate between 2022 and 2032 in the Asia Pacific region. The proliferating food & beverages industries in South Asian countries, supported by increased attention to food safety are anticipated to fuel market expansion. Over the coming years, the Asia Pacific food and beverage sector is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 7.5%, driven by the region's fast urbanization, economic expansion, rising food consumption, and the impact of western trends on its food market.

How Food Tester Market Players are withstanding the Growing Competition?

The global market for food safety testing is somewhat fragmented, with both regional and international firms competing against each other to capture as much client base as possible. Among the major players in the sector, some have managed to earn recognition as significant businesses in terms of their geographic reach.

Over the past few years investment in research and development activities to come up with novel technologies with better accuracy and easier-to-use equipment design has become the prominent strategy by manufacturers for their food tester market growth. For instance, in December 2019, ALS Limited introduced Check and Trace, as a novel technology that can identify Salmonella isolates as sensitively as conventional serological techniques. Additionally, Asurequality expanded its line of food safety testing services in June of the year 2020 by adding a new brand called "Kaitiaki Kai" to its existing product portfolio in the market.

On the basis of equipment type, the market for food tester equipment with rapid inspection technology is anticipated to grow at a rate of about 8.3% through 2032. For this reason, PCR and immunoassay methods are the maximum utilized in the construction of food tester machines and other products and account for a sizable portion of fast technologies. These equipment types particularly are attracting more focus from the stakeholders as most of the clients prefer quality over price.

Traditional methods are still widely employed in poor nations in Asia, Latin America, and Europe, and they dominate the worldwide market for food safety testing. So the food tester market players have started extending their production units to these countries in lieu of more lucrative opportunities.

Food tester plays a key role in the food industry. Food analyzers are mostly used by manufacturers to ensure quality control and safety. The agricultural sector uses mass spectrometry/ chromatography to detect the amount of pesticides present in the food.

Food tester is also used to count bacterial colonies in the food sample. Food tester also determines the content of protein, fat, oil, flavor and others. Various parameters need to be considered before buying food testers are the use of food testers based on application, i.e. quality control or amount of contamination in food. Other factors are ease of use, the speed of analysis, type of analysis, sample size, and others.

Food chemistry analysis includes testing of fat, protein, moisture, salt, minerals, contamination, sugar, pH, and others. Food microbiology analysis includes salmonella, lactobacillus, staphylococcus aureus, yeast, E. coli, pseudomonas, mold, Listeria, and others.

Food allergen analysis includes the test for the presence of egg, peanut, soy, and others. Natural food toxin analysis includes testing of fumonisin, histamine, and others. Food quality control determination includes wheat adulteration, GMO analysis.

Which are Some Prominent Drivers Spearheading Food Tester Market Growth?

The food tester market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period due to the strict regulations and standards set by the regulatory bodies of various countries. The other factors creating the demand for food testers are increasing adulteration, use of preservatives, use of pesticides, a rising concern for organic food, and others. All the factors are expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the global food tester market.

In addition to this, regulatory compliance plays a key driver for the growth of the food tester market. Food testing compliance are Food and Drug Administration/Bacteriological Analytical Manual (FDA/BAM), Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), USA Department of Agriculture (USDA), International Organization for Standardization (ISO), Association of Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC), United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP), American Public Health Association's Compendium of Methods for the Microbiological Examination of Food (CMMEF), and others. With the increasing regulation and continuous advancements in food testers, the market for food testers is expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period.

What are the Challenges Faced by the Food Tester Industry?

The challenges associated with the growth of the global food tester market are variation in regulatory standards for different regions or countries. However, food tester manufacturers are continuously focused on manufacturing food testers based on regional standards and are expected to overcome this challenge by the end of the forecast period.

Why is Europe Emerging as an Opportunistic Food Tester Market?

As per the FMI analysis, Europe dominates the market, accounting for 36% of the market revenue share. The growth is owed to the high prevalence of food-related allergies among the population which further increases the demand for safety testing procedures. Furthermore, enforcement of stringent regulatory norms in the region is projected to lead to a large market size in the region.

How is North America Contributing to Growth of the Food Tester Market?

According to Future Market Insights, North America is expected to have the prominent market share of food testers during the forecast period. The strict regulations for maintaining food standards and the massive demand for packaged food is driving the food tester market in the USA and Canada. In addition, allergen testing in North America for food safety testing mandated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has significantly added to the growth.
