The global market for meat processing equipment is expected to increase at a CAGR of 5.2 percent from USD 6.8 billion in 2019 to USD 9.7 billion by 2026. This is due to expanding consumer demand for processed meat, premiumization of meat products, and increased food safety requirements.
In 2019, the grinding equipment segment is expected to account for the greatest market share.
In terms of value, the meat processing equipment market is expected to be dominated by the grinding equipment segment in 2019. Grinding machinery is mostly used to break down large pieces of tenderised meat into smaller bits. Bone fragments and connective components, such as tendons, are separated from muscle meat using some of the most used grinders. The increased use of grinders for a variety of products, such as minced meat, sausages, hamburgers, and other items, is propelling the market for grinding equipment.
The precooked meat category is expected to increase at the fastest rate across product types over the projection period.
Fatty tissues, head meat, liver, animal skin, blood, and other edible portions are combined to make precooked meat products. There are two stages in which this is accomplished. The raw meat is heated at a temperature of roughly 80 degrees Celsius in the first phase, and then at a temperature of 80-100 degrees Celsius in the second phase to create the final product. Because these goods include a variety of meat parts, this category includes a wide range of products. This is the primary driver of the precooked meat business, which in turn drives the precooked meat equipment market.
In 2019, the processed pork segment of the meat processing equipment market is expected to dominate.
In 2019, processed pork is expected to dominate the meat processing equipment market by meat type. Processed pork is in high demand in key markets such as North America and Europe since it is less expensive than processed beef and tastes better than processed mutton. Processed pork is also available in a variety of forms, such as ham, bacon, and sausages, which are highly popular in western nations such as France and Germany, where processed pork accounts for a considerable market share.
During the forecast period, North America is expected to account for the greatest market share.
Due to expanding demand for processed meat, increased investment in meat processing facilities, and the presence of a significant number of meat processors in this region, such as Tyson Foods, Cargill Meat Solutions Corp., and JBS USA, the North American market accounted for the highest share in 2018. In addition, the market in North America has grown as a result of the increasing number of new product launches.
