High Pressure Processing Equipment Market Poised for Remarkable $1.1 Billion Valuation by 2033, Fueled by Strong 12.8% CAGR

FMI’s Insights on Growth Catalysts

According to FMI, the surging global demand for processed, packaged, and ready-to-eat food products is instigating a notable uptick in the utilization of high pressure processing equipment within the food and beverage industry. The ascendancy of health concerns and heightened consumer awareness regarding the health benefits stemming from “clean label” foods are poised to wield substantial influence on market growth from 2023 to 2033. Moreover, the enforcement of stringent regulatory norms pertaining to food safety, particularly evident in North American and West European countries, is compelling food processing entities to adopt efficient HPP equipment within their processing facilities.

Dominant Role of Horizontal Vessels in Arrangement Types

Amid the landscape of vessel arrangement types, the horizontal vessel segment is anticipated to emerge as the prevailing market component in terms of value by 2026. The escalating demand for horizontal vessel arrangements is projected to make a significant contribution to the overall market expansion. These horizontal vessels facilitate seamless loading and unloading operations while boasting a generous volume capacity, thus garnering heightened preference in the market.

In the realm of applications, the meat segment secures the pinnacle position in both value and volume. In contrast, the juice & beverage segment is poised to exhibit the most rapid growth in value during the forecast period.

When gauged by capacity, the call for vessels or containers exceeding 300 litres is expected to gain momentum in the coming years. Despite their elevated cost, the above 300 litres vessel category is projected to register a robust Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) due to their substantial holding capacity.

Regional Landscape and Future Trajectories

The North American domain is set to continue its reign as a market leader during the forecast period. Back in 2016, this region commanded over 40% of the market share, closely followed by Europe. In tandem, these regions accounted for nearly 75% of the market share in terms of value. Notably, the flourishing HPP equipment market within North America can be attributed to soaring demand from tolling services providers and their expanding application spectrum across various end-use sectors. Looking to the Asia Pacific, particularly China, a robust adoption of HPP equipment across diverse industrial domains is projected to unfold in the coming years.
