Puffed Food Production Line Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Puffed Food Type (Puffed Extruded Snacks, Puffed Breakfast Cereals, Puffed Snacks, Puffed Pet Treats and Other Puffed Food Types), Automation Level, Technology, End User and By Geography


According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Puffed Food Production Line Market is growing at a CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period. The puffed food production line market refers to the industry involved in the manufacturing and provision of comprehensive production systems designed for the production of puffed snacks. Puffed foods are characterized by their light, crispy texture, achieved through processes such as extrusion, hot air puffing, or steam puffing. The production line encompasses a series of interconnected machinery and equipment, including mixers, extruders, shaping tools, puffing chambers, cooling systems, and packaging units. These production lines enable the efficient and consistent mass production of a variety of puffed snacks, such as corn puffs, rice cakes, and multigrain snacks.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing investments in the food processing industry

As the global demand for processed and convenience foods rises, manufacturers within the food processing industry are increasingly allocating resources to enhance and expand their production capabilities. Investments in modernizing facilities, adopting advanced technologies, and optimizing production processes are particularly crucial. Puffed food production lines, equipped with innovative and efficient machinery, benefit from these investments by offering streamlined and scalable solutions for the mass production of puffed snacks. Furthermore, this financial commitment supports the integration of state-of-the-art technologies, automated systems, and sustainable practices within puffed food production lines, meeting the evolving needs of snack manufacturers and contributing to the overall growth and competitiveness of the industry.

Restraint:

High initial investment

The adoption of advanced and automated production lines, equipped with cutting-edge technologies for efficient and large-scale puffed food manufacturing, demands substantial upfront financial commitments. This poses a particular challenge for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and new entrants in the industry, limiting their ability to invest in state-of-the-art production infrastructure. The capital-intensive nature of acquiring and installing sophisticated machinery, automation systems, and quality control measures can be a barrier to entry and expansion.

Opportunity:

Innovation in snack products

With consumers seeking novel and diverse snack experiences, manufacturers are propelled to create inventive puffed snack variations in terms of flavors, textures, and nutritional profiles. Puffed food production lines play a crucial role in this landscape, offering the technological infrastructure needed to bring these innovations to market efficiently. Moreover, advanced production lines enable the creation of unique shapes, formulations, and combinations, meeting the dynamic preferences of modern consumers.

Threat:

Limited flexibility in production

Some production lines, despite their efficiency, face challenges in adapting quickly to changing consumer preferences and market trends. The design and configuration of certain puffed food production lines may lack the agility needed to accommodate rapid shifts in product formulations, shapes, or sizes. This constraint can be a drawback in an industry where innovation and responsiveness to market demands are crucial. However, manufacturers may find it challenging to introduce new products or adjust existing ones without significant reconfiguration or investment in additional equipment.

Covid-19 Impact

The initial disruption in the supply chain, workforce shortages, and restrictions on manufacturing activities affected production capabilities. The pandemic-induced economic uncertainties led to delays in capital investments and the adoption of advanced puffed food production lines. However, the increased demand for packaged and convenience foods during lockdowns provided a partial offsetting effect. The focus on food safety and hygiene amplified the need for automated and efficient production processes, driving interest in modernizing puffed food production lines.

The puffed extruded snacks segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

Puffed Extruded Snacks segment commanded the largest market share throughout the extrapolated period. Boasting popularity for their crispy texture and diverse flavors, puffed extruded snacks have become a consumer favorite. This surge in demand is driving manufacturers to invest in advanced production lines specifically tailored for the efficient and high-volume production of these snacks. Furthermore, puffed extruded snacks, often made through extrusion puffing technology, offer versatility in shapes, ingredients, and taste profiles, aligning with evolving consumer preferences.

The extrusion puffing technology segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Extrusion Puffing Technology segment is witnessing profitable growth throughout the projected period as it produces a variety of puffed snacks, is gaining prominence due to its versatility and efficiency. This technology involves subjecting raw materials to high temperature and pressure, resulting in the expansion and puffing of the final product. The segment's growth is propelled by the increasing consumer demand for crispy and flavorful snacks, and extrusion puffing is well-suited to meet these expectations. Moreover, manufacturers are investing substantially in production lines equipped with advanced extrusion technologies to cater to the surging popularity of puffed snacks, such as corn puffs and extruded multigrain snacks.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific region is projected to hold largest share over the estimation period as convenient and diverse snacks in densely populated countries, coupled with changing consumer lifestyles, has fueled the expansion of the market. Rising disposable incomes, urbanization, and a penchant for innovative snack options contribute to the region's prominence. Additionally, a growing awareness of health-conscious snacking has spurred investments in advanced puffed food production lines to meet evolving preferences in the region.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America region is estimated to witness profitable growth owing to increased awareness of the need for advanced food processing technologies to meet stringent quality and safety standards has led to substantial investments in modernizing production lines. The trend of clean-label and functional snacks has further propelled the demand for sophisticated puffed food production lines that can accommodate these requirements. Moreover, as manufacturers strive to cater to evolving consumer preferences, North America stands as a lucrative market for technological advancements in puffed food production line.

Key players in the market

Some of the key players in Puffed Food Production Line market include Albrecht Machinery, Anko Food Machine Co., Ltd, Baker Perkins Ltd, Dingson Food Machinery Limited, FENCO Food Machinery, GEA Group AG, Heat and Control, Inc, JBT Corporation, Rheon Automatic Machinery Co., Ltd., RISCO Group, Shandong Saixin Inflating Machinery Co., Ltd, Snack Food Equipment Solutions, Tanis Food Tec, The Middleby Corporation and Reading Bakery Systems.

Key Developments:

In December 2023, JBT launches second attempt to acquire Marel, valuing company at EUR 3.4 billion. Marel nixed a takeover bid from JBT in late November after the company’s board of directors determined the proposal was not in the best interest of the companies shareholders. The board said that the initial offer, which was reportedly for EUR 3.15 (USD 3.43) per share, did not account for the intrinsic value of the company.

In December 2023, JBT announced the launch of the new updated version of its Stein TwinDrum PRoYIELD 600 Spiral Oven with double-impact airflow technology. This is designed to provide uniform cooking with consistent temperature distribution across the conveyer belt. The PRoYIELD takes the original TwinDrum two-zone cooking system and improves airflow consistency across the machine, enabling customers to cook products at lower temperatures.
