Food testing kits are specifically engineered for the detection and analysis of pathogens, meat species, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), allergens, and mycotoxins in food products. These kits are designed to provide a more efficient and effective means of assessing the integrity and quality of various foods. Food testing is a crucial component of standard quality control measures, often initiated through laboratory or field testing.
The primary technologies incorporated in food testing kits include PCR-based, immunoassay-based, and enzyme substrate-based testing methods. PCR-based food testing kits are particularly adept at rapidly and accurately detecting foodborne bacteria and other essential targets related to food safety and quality. The swift reporting facilitated by these kits empowers users to expedite product release and intervention processes. PCR assays for food safety detect key pathogens and other pertinent targets in both food and environmental samples, providing qualitative insights. These food testing kits are designed to target various elements such as pathogens, meat species, GMOs, allergens, mycotoxins, and others. Food testing kits cater to different types of samples, including meat, poultry, and seafood, dairy products, packaged food items, fruits and vegetables, cereals, grains, and pulses, as well as nuts, seeds, spices, and other food categories. This diverse applicability makes food testing kits an integral tool for ensuring the safety and quality of a broad spectrum of food products.
The food testing kits market research report is one of a series of new reports that provides food testing kits market statistics, including food testing kits industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a food testing kits market share, detailed food testing kits market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the food testing kits industry. This food testing kits market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The food testing kits market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.84 billion in 2023 to $3.14 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to several factors, including heightened concerns about food safety, increased focus on regulatory compliance, growing consumer awareness regarding food quality and safety standards, the globalization of the food supply chain, and the occurrence of foodborne outbreaks. These factors collectively contributed to the increased attention and efforts directed toward ensuring and enhancing food safety measures during the historic period.
The food testing kits market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.72 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several key factors. These include a heightened emphasis on clean label and non-GMO verification, the adoption of faster testing methods, increased regulatory stringency, a growing trend towards customization and multiplexing in testing approaches, and continued investment by the food industry in advancing testing technologies. Noteworthy trends expected during the forecast period encompass the utilization of traceability and blockchain technology, advancements in allergen detection methods, improvements in pathogen detection technologies, the emergence of smart and connected testing devices, and advancements in mycotoxin detection methodologies.
The anticipated increase in occurrences of food-borne illnesses is poised to propel the growth of the food testing kits market in the forthcoming years. Food-borne illness refers to a condition triggered by consuming contaminated food or beverages. These testing kits serve as crucial tools in reducing the risks associated with ingesting contaminated food, consequently lowering the incidence of food-borne illnesses. According to data from the Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet), an organization in the United States focusing on food safety, projections for 2022 indicate approximately 25,479 instances of foodborne diseases, leading to 5,981 hospitalizations and 170 fatalities caused by eight different pathogens. This upsurge in food-related illnesses has heightened concerns about food safety among the population, thereby augmenting the demand for food testing kits.
The burgeoning demand for processed food is anticipated to be a significant driver propelling the expansion of the food testing kits market. Processed foods encompass items altered during manufacturing, necessitating thorough testing throughout their development. These foods are associated with concerns regarding poor dietary quality and a surge in obesity prevalence. Projections from a joint study conducted by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) and Grant Thornton emphasize significant investments, reaching $33 billion by 2024, in the processed food sector. This sector is witnessing substantial interest in advancements related to food handling and processing equipment, aligning with projections of India's food production doubling by 2024. Hence, the escalating demand for processed foods serves as a driving force for the growth of the food testing kits market.
Technological advancements represent a prominent trend gaining traction within the food testing kits market. Rapid Analytical Food Testing (RAFT) kits embody a novel technology empowering individuals to detect and identify various food pathogens, allergens, adulterants, pesticide residues, antibiotics/drug residues, and other harmful toxins present in food products. These kits offer users increased assurance about food quality and protection against illnesses. For instance, in December 2020, Eurofins Technologies, a Hungary-based supplier specializing in test kits and systems for laboratory analyses, introduced the SENSIStrip Allergen product range. These immunoassay-based kits are user-friendly, rapid tests necessitating only a short incubation time. Designed for multiple food matrices, rinse water, and machinery, they facilitate adequate management of allergies across various stages of the food manufacturing process.
Key players within the food testing kits market are directing their focus towards strategic investments aimed at enabling the availability of food testing kits for use in home settings. Investment involves the allocation of resources such as capital, time, or effort, with the aim of reaping future benefits. As part of these investments, Zeo, a UK-based personalized nutrition startup, secured $20 million in Series B funding specifically for developing at-home testing kits. Through Zeo's app, users can access meal recommendations based on their test results, and those subscribing to the premium service can also benefit from personalized nutrition coaching.
