Global Dairy Processing Equipment Market Research and Forecast 2022-2028

Global Dairy Processing Equipment Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Type (Homogenizers, Separators, Membrane Filtration, and Others) By Application (Processed Milk, Cheese & Cream, Protein Concentrates, and Others) Forecast, 2022-2028

The global dairy processing equipment market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of around 5.3% during the forecast period. The factors contributing to the growth of the market include the rising consumption of milk and dairy-based products and increasing automation in the dairy processing industries. Due to the rising consumption of milk, manufacturers are adopting advanced automation technologies in order to increase their dairy production. Thus, creating strong demands for dairy processing equipment. According to the International Dairy Foods Association, American dairy per capita consumption consistently increasing each year, with 2019 up 6% over the past five years, 10% over the past 15 years, and 16% over the past 30 years. Additionally, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the US, the World milk consumption is reached nearly 860 million tones in 2020. Furthermore, the changing taste and preference of consumers have prompted them to shift toward value-added milk-based products, which, in turn, is escalating the market growth. Besides, manufacturers are also investing high in R&D activities intending to improve the automation for more production in dairy products.

The reduction in raw material cost and the increasing number of dairy processing plants are expected to accelerate the market growth during the forecast period. High investment in automation installation and management are the challenges that are negatively impacting the market. Further, advancement in dairy processing techniques and government funding for dairy processing infrastructure is expected to escalate the adoption of dairy processing equipment on a big level during the forecast period.

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Dairy Processing Equipment Market

There was no significant effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global dairy equipment market. Even during the lockdown dairy products especially milk was in high demand. Although COVID-19 had impacted manufacturers business operations there was no significant impact on the global operation, production, and supply chain. It has been witnessed that the consumption of processed milk and products such as cheese, paneer, among others was more during the pandemic. Thus, more consumption led to the high demand for dairy equipment such as pasteurizers, separators, membrane filtration, among others to maintain products nutrition values and shelf life.

Segmental Outlook

The global dairy processing equipment market is bifurcated into type and application. Based on type, the market is categorized into homogenizers, separators, membrane filtration, pasteurizer, evaporators & dryers’ equipment, and other equipment. Among these, the pasteurizer is expected to grow at a faster rate during the forecast period. Pasteurizers are used in the pasteurization process to destroy the pathogens present in milk to keep it for a longer time by increasing shelf life. The increasing demand for processed milk and dairy-based products, and growing concern for the safety of dairy products are creating demands for such type of equipment. Based on application, the market is further classified into processed milk, cheese & cream, protein concentrates, milk powder, and others.

Global Dairy Processing Equipment Market Share by Application, 2020 (%)

Global Dairy Processing Equipment Market Share by Application

The processed milk segment holds the Largest Share in the Global Dairy Processing Equipment market

Among application, the processed milk segment dominated the market in 2020, and it is further expected to hold the largest share during the forecast period. Among all the dairy products, milk is the major product which is consumed majorly in the World. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimates in 2020, the Asia-Pacific was the major region with high consumption of milk followed by Europe and North America. In Asia-Pacific, milk consumption was reached 362 million tones. Whereas the consumption in Europe and North America in the same year was 229 million tones, and 110 million tones respectively. Processed milk is heated up to 72°C for no less than 15 seconds, then cooled immediately to destroy any harmful bacteria and micro-organisms. This also extends the shelf life. The rising consumption of milk increased the demand for processed milk, which further increased the adoption of dairy processing equipment.

Regional Outlook

Geographically, the global dairy processing equipment market is classified into four major regions including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, ASEAN and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of the World (Latin America and the Middle East and Africa (MEA)). Among these, Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing in the global dairy processing Market due to the huge population and rising adoption of milk and derivatives. In Asia-Pacific, China, India, Pakistan are the major economies that have the highest consumption of cheese and other dairy products Besides, low-cost manufacturing, cheap labor and improved infrastructure and favorable government policies are the prominent factors driving the growth of the market in the region.
