Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The increase in demand for freeze drying equipment in food processing is notably driving the industrial food dryer market growth, although factors such as increase in maintenance will increase operating cos t may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the industrial food dryer industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Industrial Food Dryer Market Driver
One of the key factors driving the industrial food dryer market growth is the increase in demand for freeze drying equipment in food processing. Freeze drying is mainly used in the pharmaceutical industry. It is one of the most successful methods of food preservation, which helps to increase the shelf life of food products; retain the nutritional value, color, and flavor of food products; and reduce product weight. Freeze drying makes food products such as fruits and vegetables softer and more palatable. Through this process, over 90% of the water content in the food products is removed, which reduces the product weight. Freeze-dried products weigh less than dehydrated food products, and once the moisture has been removed from the surface, the products become more porous. Freeze-dried products can be cooked easily by just adding hot water to them. Freeze drying of milk products such as cheese and yogurt help in the preservation of the necessary bacteria in them. As freeze-dried products have a crunchy texture, they can be added to cereals, ice cream, yogurt, chocolate bars, and candies, which will help to improve the taste of these products.
Key Industrial Food Dryer Market Trend
Energy- and cost-efficient dryers gaining traction is the major trend influencing industrial food dryer market growth. There are various standards set to prevent this, and manufacturers must comply with these standards. There are standards for the manufacturing of equipment as well. Dryers should be designed or manufactured according to the standards set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). All the parts and components also have to be certified. The microwave vacuum dryers have a threshold value for the maximum microwave emission. Thus, if the emission increases, it will cause serious problems for the operators of the equipment. Complying with all these regulations will require extra effort and increase the costs for manufacturers. Freeze drying is gaining popularity in the food processing industry as well for drying fruits and vegetables. It is one of the most successful methods of food preservation, which helps to increase the shelf life of food products.
Key Industrial Food Dryer Market Challenge
Increase in maintenance will increase operating cost is one of the key challenges hindering the industrial food dryer market growth. Industrial dryers are large, heavy equipment. If damaged during operation, they will require maintenance. The cost of component parts is high for industrial dryers, so it will incur additional costs for the end-users. For example, a well-functioning dryer producing over 10 tons of products per hour can provide food products worth $100,000 every day. If a dryer gets damaged, it will increase the downtime for the repair and maintenance of the dryer. The downtime can increase according to the severity of the damage, which will affect the production. If the end-user is spending five hours a week on the unplanned repair of the equipment, they will lose 50 tons of production for a week creating a huge loss for the company. Also, there are chances of over-drying of the products due to the non-uniformity in the process of drying due to faults in the equipment. In case the proper moisture limit for each product is not set, and the products coming out of the equipment have moisture variation of a specific percentage, then it will lead to a loss of production.
