The cattle disinfectants market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $2.05 billion in 2023 to $2.14 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%. The historical growth in the use of cattle disinfectants can be attributed to factors such as disease outbreaks, the implementation of biosecurity measures, the rise in intensive farming practices, increased awareness of zoonotic diseases, and concerns related to global trade in the cattle industry.

The cattle disinfectants market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.5 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period for cattle disinfectants is expected due to factors such as the potential increase in livestock diseases, the globalization of livestock trade, a rising demand for organic and sustainable farming practices, a focus on preventive healthcare in the cattle industry, and an increasing adoption of precision livestock farming. Notable trends during this period are likely to include technological advancements in disinfection methods, the development of customized disinfectant formulations, the introduction of smart disinfection systems, initiatives for education and training, and the implementation of integrated farm biosecurity solutions.

The anticipated increase in the incidence of cattle diseases is poised to be a significant driver propelling the growth of the cattle disinfectants market. Cattle diseases encompass a range of illnesses or health conditions that can affect these animals, stemming from various pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi. Cattle disinfectants collectively play a pivotal role in mitigating the introduction and spread of disease-causing organisms among cattle populations. For instance, in March 2022, as per the Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs in the United Kingdom, there was an 8.5% rise in reported cattle bovine tuberculosis (TB) cases in Wales, with 665 new incidents, compared to 613 in the previous year of 2021. Consequently, due to bovine TB control measures in December 2021, 10,641 cattle were slaughtered. This surge in cattle disease incidents underscores the driving force behind the growth of the cattle disinfectants market.

The expansion of livestock production is expected to significantly bolster the growth trajectory of the cattle disinfectants market in the foreseeable future. Livestock, comprising domesticated animals maintained in agricultural settings, particularly cattle, relies on effective disinfectants to maintain their health, control parasites, and mitigate pollution. For instance, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics in September 2022, there was a 1.9% rise in the number of cattle slaughtered in the quarter ending in September 2022, totaling 1.5 million. Concurrently, beef production surged by 2.3% to reach 475,628 tons in the same quarter. This increase in livestock production activities strongly contributes to driving the demand for cattle disinfectants in the market.

The cattle disinfectants market is witnessing a prominent trend revolving around product innovation, with companies actively engaging in the development of new solutions to maintain their market standing. In November 2022, Neogen Corporation, a US-based leader in food and animal safety, introduced the Synergize disinfectant across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. This multi-purpose disinfectant, comprising quaternary ammonium and glutaraldehyde, stands out for its non-corrosive nature on hard surfaces and its efficacy in eliminating Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, fungi, spores, and viruses. The versatile application of Synergize encompasses usage in boot baths, soaking tubs, as well as on both hard and porous surfaces, employing cloth, sponge, mop, or mechanical sprayer methods. Notably, the disinfectant has secured authorization from several global regulatory bodies, including Health Canada, the US Environmental Protection Agency, and the UK Department for Environmental, Food, and Rural Affairs for various applications such as General Orders, Diseases of Poultry, and Foot and Mouth Disease.

Significant players within the cattle disinfectants market are adopting a strategic partnership approach to facilitate cost-effective access to reliable cleaning supplies. Strategic partnerships entail leveraging complementary strengths and resources among companies to achieve mutual advantages. For instance, in June 2021, Shelters United, a US-based non-profit organization focused on animal welfare, announced a collaboration with Virox Technologies Inc. to provide ethical and potent cleaning and disinfection products to numerous animal welfare groups across the United States. This partnership not only grants Shelters United members affordable access to rescue disinfectants and educational resources but also aids in preventing illness among animals housed in these facilities. The collaboration highlights Rescue Disinfectants' unique accelerated hydrogen peroxide technology, offering effective disinfection in a shorter contact time compared to competing products. Virox Technologies Inc., a Canada-based manufacturer specializing in cattle disinfectants, stands as a key contributor to this collaboration.

In September 2022, Zoetis Inc., a leading US-based drug manufacturing company in the animal health industry, successfully acquired Jurox for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition positioned Zoetis Inc. to enhance its global expansion efforts and strengthen its valuable animal health portfolio. Jurox, an Australia-based animal health company, specializes in the development and manufacturing of veterinary pharmaceuticals designed to treat companion animals and cattle.
