Europe Food Safety Testing Kits Market Overview
Food safety as a basic individual right is specifically recognized in the United Nations Sustainable Developments Goals. Foodborne diseases continue to be a challenge to health systems in Europe and represent a considerable burden to public health. An entire regional population is susceptible to foodborne diseases; however, several groups of the population are particularly vulnerable such as people living in poverty, immunocompromised people, pregnant women, elderly people, and small children. Data published by World Health Organization (WHO) suggests that foodborne diseases are common throughout Europe, although a very small number of actual cases are reported due to limited surveillance. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), in 2020 the European Union Member States reported 3,086 foodborne outbreaks and 20,017 human cases. The aforementioned estimates of causes related to foodborne diseases emphasize the significance of mitigation of risk and prevention of food contamination. Therefore, food safety testing has become a crucial factor in European health systems. The rising prevalence of food safety testing is therefore expected to positively impact the Europe food safety testing kits market over the forecast period. Europe has strict food safety controls which include the commission’s own inspection service that visits all member countries on a regular basis. Moreover, countries that are not a part of the European Union also follow the standards set by the commission for trade with member countries. This has led to standard food safety protocols complied with by many countries in Europe region. Additionally, the European Union is actively working with European Food Authority to spread consumer awareness regarding food safety standards. The significance of healthy food is pushing consumers to demand food safety labels for packaged food products, thereby driving the Europe food safety testing kits market further.
