The retort machine market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.63 billion in 2023 to $1.79 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to an increasing demand for shelf-stable products, a rise in the consumption of ready-to-eat foods, the expansion of the packaged food industry, stringent food safety regulations, and an increasing consumer awareness of food quality.

The retort machine market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.44 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of packaged beverages, increased customization and flexibility in processing, the emergence of innovative packaging materials, the rise of e-commerce in food retail, and the growing adoption in the pharmaceutical sector. Key trends expected in the forecast period include advancements in retort technology, progress in sterilization technologies, a focus on energy-efficient retort systems, the integration of smart technologies, and the expanding applications in diverse industries.

The anticipated increase in the prevalence of foodborne diseases is poised to drive the growth of the retort machine market in the coming years. Food diseases, resulting from the consumption of contaminated foods or beverages, can be mitigated by using retort machines to sterilize and pasteurize packaged products. These machines extend the shelf life of food and ensure safety by eliminating disease-causing microorganisms. As reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in June 2023, significant foodborne pathogens were estimated to cause 9.4 million illnesses, 56,000 hospital admissions, and 1,350 fatalities annually in the USA. Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) stated in May 2022 that 420,000 people die and an estimated 600 million fall ill from consuming contaminated food annually, resulting in a loss of 33 million healthy life years. Thus, the rising occurrence of foodborne diseases is a key driver fueling the growth of the retort machine market.

The increasing demand for processed foods is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the retort machine market. Processed foods, altered from their natural state through cooking, preserving, or the addition of additives, are effectively sterilized and maintained in sealed containers by retort machines. This ensures an extended shelf life and maintains food safety. In 2022, the United States Department of Agriculture reported that the total value of US processed food product exports reached $38 billion, marking a 10.96% increase from $34.24 billion in 2021. Additionally, in 2022, Canada exported processed food products valued at $11.43 billion, while Mexico exported processed food products worth $5.65 billion. Therefore, the growing demand for processed foods is a driving force behind the expansion of the retort machine market.

The high costs associated with retort machines are expected to present a limitation to the growth of the retort machine market. The substantial expenses related to the purchase and ongoing maintenance of retort machines can be particularly challenging for small and medium-sized businesses, impeding widespread adoption. Berlin Packaging has noted that retort pouch packaging poses challenges due to the expensive specialized machinery required and the maintenance-intensive nature of the process. Consequently, the high costs associated with retort machines hinder the market's growth.

Major companies in the retort machine market are increasingly focusing on introducing retort control software to enhance their market revenues. Retort control software serves as a technological platform for managing and overseeing the retort process, involving high-pressure and heat treatment in sealed containers to sterilize and preserve food. In April 2023, Surdry North America launched SteriNet21, FDA-approved software designed to enhance food quality control and securely record thermal processing data. This platform allows remote access to critical data from the sterilization process, including heat, temperature, and pressure inside the chambers. It replaces or duplicates traditional paper chart recorders, generating comprehensive digital documentation and reducing the risk of compromising crucial retort processing data.

In November 2022, ProMach, a US-based packaging machinery company, acquired Ferlo for an undisclosed amount, strengthening its position in the processing equipment market and expanding its international presence in the retort market. Ferlo, a Spain-based machinery company, specializes in manufacturing retort machines, including autoclaves and pasteurizing tunnels, for cooking and sterilizing foods, beverages, and pharmaceuticals.
