The size of the European food safety testing market was valued at USD 5.85 billion in 2023. The European market is further estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.37% from 2024 to 2032 and be worth USD 11.09 billion by 2032 from USD 6.28 billion in 2024.
European food safety tests are expected to show moderate growth due to the government's relaxation of food labeling standards that manufacturers must adhere to in the event of an epidemic. This must be done to provide sufficient food for the population, especially in the economies affected by the closures.
The growth of the European food safety testing market is driven by food testing mechanisms. Inadequate food detection mechanisms can increase the risk of foodborne illness. Food safety tests refer to food tests to detect organisms that cause disease, chemicals, and other harmful substances. It is, for the most part, focused on three principal food contaminants: pathogens, synthetic substances, and hereditarily changed living beings (GMOs). Food safety tests are essential to obtain a certificate of analysis for ready-to-eat and raw foods at various stages of food processing. Food safety labels are provided on food to ensure food safety and quality. This has increased the importance of food safety testing in the world market. Food certification procedures are food safety tests to ensure the safety of foodborne illness and reduce the threat of contamination. Food safety testing is an essential process to maintain the quality and safety of food. Governments around the world have vastly expanded their emphasis on food security. Food security is a trustworthy attribute because consumers cannot observe it before and after buying products. Therefore, test methodologies such as traceability and microbiological quality have been implemented at the European and national levels to guarantee effective monitoring and general control. Improper use of technology in instant food production will lead to increased growth for products over the forecast period if chemical contamination increases in the European Food Safety Testing business.
The food safety testing market in Europe is developing fundamentally by actualizing exact food handling guidelines to guarantee sanitation and the graceful globalization of food. Consumer demand for food safety in Europe is also increasing the market for food safety testing. Its having an unknown impact on contamination and food consumption by genetically modified foods has led to market demand for food safety tests. The introduction of new advanced security testing technology has helped drive market growth. Factors such as lifestyle changes and the increased popularity of fast-service restaurants are expected to promote the European Food Safety Testing market of edible products as demand for packaged and processed foods increases in developed countries and developing countries. The market is also expected to grow as demand for quality testing of processed and unprocessed meat increases. The market for Europe Food Safety Testing is emerging as a result of increased foodborne illness, food contamination, and increased consumer awareness of food quality and safety. The main driving force in the European market is the increase in microbial contamination of food.
The Europe Food Safety Testing market has seen remarkable progress with the rise of foodborne illnesses worldwide. Growing user awareness of food safety is driving the growth of the European food safety testing market. Regions around the world are experiencing cases of foodborne disease epidemics caused by the presence of chemical contaminants and microbial pathogens. The main players in the European food safety testing market are increasing the demand for food safety testing due to health problems and increased user awareness. Mergers and acquisitions between market participants are also one of the main causes of Europe Food Safety Testing market growth. The growth of the food safety testing market has also accelerated as competition among food producers has increased, increasing economically motivated adultery (EMA) and increasing cases of food quality deterioration, such as adultery, pesticides, artificial flavor enhancers and certifications. Food security has regularly been utilized as a method for controlling exchange and forcing assessments and obligations. Furthermore, the increased use of electrical biosensors in microbiological testing, reducing analysis time, will lead to a European food safety testing market for the evaluation of the safety of edible items during the outlook period.
The lack of food management infrastructure in developing countries, the complexity of testing technology and the lack of regulatory harmonization are expected to hamper the market growth. Lack of food safety awareness in several developing countries as well as in developing countries and inadequate government regulation are likely to hinder the growth of the Europe Food Safety Testing market.
REGIONAL ANALYSIS
Europe has a significant share of the world market for food safety testing. Countries such as Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain are the main sources of regional demand. The preference for ready-to-eat and processed foods and meat products is one of the main factors driving the growth of the market. Food-related allergies are supposed to become widespread among consumers in this region, increasing their reliance on safety testing procedures. Furthermore, the implementation of strict regulatory standards in the region is expected to increase the size of the region's market. Europe observes high rates of mass production for food testing due to better government health and a greater government focus on reducing the effects of foodborne illness. Furthermore, consumer preference for organic fruit will support business expansion. Spain produces around 50% of European fruits and vegetables products. The quality and safety of fresh products is of utmost importance, especially in the export market. Spanish consumers also know the highest levels of food safety, especially through sensitive foods such as animal feed and infant formulas and nutrition for the elderly.
SGS, Eurofins, Intertek, ALS Limited, Bureau Veritas, Mérieux, TUV SÜD, Microbac Laboratories, AsureQuality, and Romer Labs are a few of the notable players in the Europe food safety testing market.
