Food Safety Testing Market: Snapshot

The food safety testing market has become a crucial part of the growing food and beverage industry around the world in recent years. The key factor responsible for the rapid growth of the food safety market is the variety of food purchasing and consumption options now available to urban consumers, which has led to a corresponding reaction from regulatory bodies. The rapid evolution of the food and beverage industry to cater to the changing demographic patterns around the world is likely to ensure strong growth of the food safety testing market in the coming years.

The rising number of pathogen outbreaks due to food poisoning is likely to be a prime driver for the global food safety testing market in the coming years. Steady globalization of the food and beverage industry has resulted in rising demand for long-distance shipping of food products, which leaves significant scope for pathogenic contamination. This has forced several innovations in the food packaging industry in recent years in order to minimize the interaction of the food with its environment. Complementing this, the food safety testing market has grown by leaps and bounds to accommodate the rising number of new players in the lucrative food and beverage industry.

Regionally, North America and Europe are likely to remain the leading contributors to the global food safety testing market. The processed food industry has grown rapidly in these regions due to the widespread prevalence of an affluent urban demographic and popularity of processed food. The popularity of junk food in the U.S. is a key driver for the North America food safety testing market, along with the growing demand for exotic fruits, which entail international shipping.

Food Safety Testing Market: Market Potential 

Capacity expansion and mergers and acquisitions are strategic moves that players in this market are focused on for growth. In a recent industry development, SGS S.A., a leading bioanalytical contract solutions provider has announced the expansion of its elemental analysis testing capabilities of its facility located at Villeneuve-la-Garenne, France. The company has invested in a brand new inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry system in order to address the latest ICH Q3D regulatory guidelines for elemental impurities. 

In another major industry development, Eurofins Scientific has acquired ASL Análises Ambientais, which is a Brazilian major for environmental testing services.
