Europe Food Safety Testing Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Food Tested, By Technology (PCR-Based Assay, Immunoassay-Based, Agar Culturing and Others), By Type, By Country and Growth Forecast, 2023 - 2030
The Europe Food Safety Testing Market would witness market growth of 6.8% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030).
Governments and regulatory agencies are increasingly emphasizing preventive measures, and this shift is reflected in the growing incorporation of advanced testing technologies in food safety protocols. From traditional methods such as microbiological testing to cutting-edge techniques like molecular and DNA-based analysis, the spectrum of available testing methodologies is expanding, contributing to a more thorough and precise food safety assessment.
Furthermore, food safety monitoring has a wide-ranging operational scope, encompassing every stage of the food supply chain between the farm and the plate. Food safety testing is an integral component during the processing and manufacturing phases, validating the efficacy of control measures. This includes testing for allergens, additives, and the presence of pathogens that may be introduced during processing. Before products reach consumers, rigorous testing assesses their safety and compliance with regulatory standards. This involves analyzing the final products for contaminants and pollutants and ensuring label accuracy.
In addition, if the UK exports meat products, adherence to international food safety standards becomes crucial. Many countries impose strict testing and certification requirements on imported meat. Expanding meat production in the UK may prompt increased exports, driving the need for comprehensive testing to meet standards. As per the Government of the United Kingdom, the total value of meat in 2021 increased by 5.9% to £9.1bn. The value of beef and veal production increased by 10% to £3.3bn in 2021, following an increase of 8.3% in 2020. Therefore, the increasing meat production in Europe will boost the region's demand for food safety testing.
