High Costs of Food Testing Technologies Hampering Market Growth
The global food testing market outlook remains positive, owing to rising incidence of foodborne illnesses. However, high cost of advanced food testing technologies might limit market growth to some extent during the forthcoming period.
Advanced testing technologies like PCR, LC-MS/MS, and NGS are expensive. High setup and maintenance costs make it difficult for small and medium food manufacturers and laboratories to adopt them, thereby slowing down food testing market growth.
Implementation of Strict Food Safety Regulations Creating Growth Prospects
Governments around the world are implementing stricter rules, such as the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), EU Regulation (EC) No 178/2002, and standards by FSSAI in India. These regulations require thorough food testing and traceability. As a result, the demand for food testing is expected to grow in the coming years.
Emerging Food Testing Market Trends
Growing consumer demand for transparency is creating a fertile ground for the expansion of the food testing market. Modern consumers increasingly prioritize food safety, seeking transparency regarding the origins and safety of their food. This compels food producers to adopt robust testing practices to maintain brand reputation as well as improve consumer trust.
Rising demand for processed and packaged food products is set to boost growth of the food testing market. There is a rapid shift towards convenience foods and ready-to-eat meals. This, in turn, is increasing the need for testing additives, preservatives, and contaminants throughout the production chain.
Increasing food adulteration concerns are slated to uplift food testing market demand. Food fraud and adulteration cases in dairy, meat, and spices have risen globally, prompting consumers and regulators to demand more robust testing and transparency.
Advancements in food testing technologies are expected to fuel market expansion during the forthcoming period. Innovations like rapid testing kits, biosensors, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays, and chromatography techniques are improving accuracy as well as turnaround time. These technologies offer faster, more accurate detection of contaminants.
