According to the new market research report "Food Sterilization Equipment Market by Technology (Heat, Steam, Radiation, Chemical, and Filtration), Process (Batch and Continuous), Application (Spices, Seasonings, and Herbs and Dairy Products), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023", published by MarketsandMarkets, the market is estimated to be valued at USD 678.8 million in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 922.7 million by 2023, recording a CAGR of 6.3% from 2018.

Factors such as rising incidences of foodborne diseases and growing awareness about food safety among consumers are projected to fuel the market growth during the forecast period. The Food Sterilization Equipment Market is also projected to grow due to an increasing demand for non-thermal sterilization processes and technological advancements in the food processing industry.

The spices, seasonings and herbs segment dominated the market based on application in 2018. As they are used in most of the cuisines worldwide, leading manufacturers are focusing on adopting improved sterilization processes to offer high-quality food products containing spices, herbs, or seasonings. These factors are projected to escalate the demand for the food sterilization equipment for spices, seasoning, and herbs.

Radiation minimizes the presence of pathogens in the food products and lowers the speed of enzymes production, which eventually slows down the ripening, spoilage, and sprouting process in the food. The growing demand for chemical-free and environment-friendly food processing techniques is projected to drive the market for radiation technology in the food processing industry.

Batch sterilization is a sterilization system, which is used in various food application industries. Due to the minimal expenditure on the apparatus and assets as compared to the continuous sterilization process system, batch sterilization is the most preferred process. In addition, easy and fast processing features of this process contributed towards its overall growth in the market.

The rising incidences of foodborne illness are mainly due to the presence of allergens and pathogens and mislabeling of food products, which leads to the contamination of food products from plastic, glass, and metal parts. These factors are projected to drive the Food Sterilization Equipment Market in various developing countries of the region.
