The Market for Analytical Instruments in the Food and Beverage Labs Sector

For most manufacturing facilities in the food industry, laboratories must first test the raw materials that are purchased from an external supplier or farm. This must occur before they are allowed to be processed by the manufacturer. As the raw materials are processed, they are usually tested or monitored in some way. Samples tested during this phase must either be taken directly from the production line and brought to a laboratory or assessed with a process analytical tool. When the final food product is ready, its physical, chemical, and microbiological characteristics are assessed in various ways.

The new Market Opportunity Report: Food & Beverage Labs 2020 examines the global market for analytical instrumentation and lab equipment commonly used to test agriculture, food, and beverage products, for both research and quality control purposes. This publication presents the market size and five-year forecast for 57 different food testing technologies, split into 10 distinct technology categories. The goal of this report is to provide a strategic perspective on the current situation and projected potential for analytical techniques used in the food & beverage industry.
