Market Overview:
The global shelf life testing market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for food products with extended shelf life and rising awareness about food safety among consumers. In addition, the growing demand for ready-to-eat and processed foods is also contributing to the growth of this market. On the basis of type, the global shelf life testing market can be segmented into real time and accelerated tests. The real time segment is expected to account for a larger share of this market in 2018 owing to its ability to provide accurate results in a short period of time. On the basis of application, this market can be divided into pet food, dietary supplements, animal feed, and human food segments.
Product Definition:
Shelf life testing is a type of laboratory testing that is used to determine the expiration date of a product. This type of testing can be used for both food and non-food products. The purpose of shelf life testing is to ensure that products are safe for consumers to use and that they meet the quality standards set by the manufacturer.
Real Time:
Real-time or Shelf Life Testing (SLT) is a technique wherein the sample is analyzed at the time of testing. It reduces labor and time involved in analyzing samples. The process also helps to minimize errors that may occur during analysis, which may lead to wrong results.
The factors responsible for growth include reduction in turnaround time required for testing, minimization of chances of error due to split sample tests.
Accelerated:
Accelerated shelf life testing is a technique used to determine the quality and safety of food products by simulating the conditions in which they will be stored. It involves accelerating the processes involved in food spoilage so that it can be detected before it happens. This method helps prevent product recalls as well as ensures compliance with government regulations for safe handling, processing, and storage of products.
The global accelerated shelf life testing market size was valued at USD 1,849 million in 2016.
Application Insights:
The pet food segment led the global shelf life testing market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to an increase in pet ownership across the globe, which has resulted in an increased demand for premium quality food products with extended shelf life.
Dietary supplements are widely used as nutritional supplements or health tonics for consumers who wish to maintain optimum health throughout their lifetime. Increasing geriatric population across the globe is expected to drive this industry significantly over the forecast period owing to rising demand dietary supplements with longer expiration dates.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to rising demand for processed and canned food as a result of increasing disposable income, changing lifestyles, and rapid urbanization in emerging economies such as China and India. In addition, rising awareness regarding health benefits associated with long shelf life foods will drive the market further.
Europe held a significant share in 2016 owing to high animal feed production coupled with large consumption of meat products in Germany, France, Italy and U.K., among other Eastern European countries that are major consumers of meat products globally (i.e., Russia). Moreover, dietary supplements have gained popularity due to their ability to enhance human physical characteristics beyond human physiological limits; this has led supplement manufacturers across Europe including those from Russia focus on R&D activities relatedto product improvement rather than expansion leading tomajor technological advancements within Europe's shelf life testing industry since 2010s onward (i.e., developmentof accelerated methods).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for packaged and processed food products
- Growing awareness about the importance of shelf life testing for food safety
- Proliferation of new technologies and methods for shelf life testing
- Rising demand from developing countries 5. Growing number of private label brands
