Food Processing Seals Market Overview
The Food Processing Seals Market Size was valued at $2.8 Billion in 2021 and is projected to reach $4.6 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to 2031.
Food Processing is the transformation of agricultural products into foods. Food processing includes many forms of processing food from grinding grains to making raw flour to home cooking. Food processing seals play a dynamic role in the food processing industry since they ensure the safety of the packed foods and beverages.
It avoids the contamination and leakage of packaged food during storage and transport. There are various environmental factors that can cause damage, decay or contamination of packed food items during transport and storage. It prevents the entry of oxygen thereby reducing the chances of growth of bacteria and fungi. Food processing seals are commonly used in bakeries and confectionery, dairy products, beverages, meat poultry and seafood etc. The materials considered under food processing seals industry are elastomers, face materials and metal.
Market Dynamics
Packaging is an important process in any industry. Packaging provides safety and security to products during supply chain process such as storage and transportation by which quality of the product can be maintained. Especially in the food industry, food products can easily get contaminated. Hence, good quality seals are essential so as to keep the food products fresh for a longer period of time. Leakage of food products can also be avoided by proper sealing of food packages. The seals used in the food processing industry are free from rust. Thus, such a use of seals is a major factor driving the growth of the food processing seals market.
A proper seal of packaging is essential to maintain the quality of packaged food products. If the packaged product is not properly sealed, there is danger of food contamination and bacteria formation due to the humidity and moisture. Leakage of the food can also be avoided by excellent quality sealing. The sealing should possess some qualities such as maintaining the quality of the packaged food even in the case of high temperatures and in humid conditions also. The seal of the packaging helps to identify the originality of the food or beverage product. Thus, this is growing the adoption of seals in the market. In addition, mechanical seals are used as food processing seals that comes with various benefits such as thermal resitance and durability.
Moreover, the dominant factors in the steady development of the mechanical seal in the market is the growing need for heat-resistant, strong, and thermal signals that allow for rapid power development between the two circular moving elements. Temperature is a key factor in this process which will cause heat-resistant seals during the weather. Factors such as increased productivity and providing full performance are reason of increasing demand in the production sector will also boost market growth in the off-season.
Furthermore, the growing trend in custom-made industrial food brands going to open new opportunities for earning money during the monsoon season. Owing to such factors, the adoption of mechanical seal in market has shown significant growth over the time and is hoped to develop over time. The growth of development in industries in the emerging economy are hoped to trigger additional development and investment policies. The several types of seals available on the market offer cartoon markers, balanced and non-proportional markers, non-pusher and pusher markers, and common symbols that contribute to the growth and lead to growth in food processing seals market share in developing countries.
Food processing seals are used for the packaging of different products in the food and beverage industry such as seafood, meat, non-alcoholic beverages, alcoholic beverages, dairy items, and bakery items. Along with these products fruits and vegetables, energy drinks and fruit juices are also consumed in large numbers in different parts of the world. Many companies in the packaging industry are trying to develop and introduce new and more advanced packaging solutions in the market.
These new packaging solutions provide safer packaged food products to prevent various kinds of contamination and help to improve the shelf life of the food product. Selig, a key player in the cap and closure lining market, has launched a new induction liner named DELTASEAL 9000. This induction liner has been developed to be used on the jars of different food products. It is a 2-piece polymer bonded liner and the food product which contains fats and oils can be stored in the container by using this type of liner. Also, the shelf life of these products can be increased as they are sealed. Thus such developments promote food processing seals market growth.
In addition, Ankomn launched new products in addition to the previous product range. The company launched seal type containers named east Turn- N- Seal containers. Perishable food products regularly used in the kitchen can be stored in these containers. It prevents the entry of air or moisture so that the products should not get contaminated by the moisture. The demand for packaged food products is increasing in different countries across the world. These products are more vulnerable to different types of contamination. Proper sealing of the package prevents food contamination and keeps it fresh. This could be the key driving factor for the growth of food processing seals market.
Many of the seals which are used for the packaging of food products are manufactured by using plastic as a material. Governments of many countries have banned the use of plastics and many companies are using different material for the packaging. This factor could be the restraining factor for the growth of the food processing seals market.
In addition, during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, construction, manufacturing, hotel, and tourism industries were majorly affected. Manufacturing activities were halted or restricted. This led to a decline in the manufacturing of various equipment used for dust control systems as well as their demand in the market, thereby restraining the growth of the food processing seals market. Conversely, industries are gradually resuming their regular manufacturing and services. This is expected to lead to re-initiation of dust control systems companies at their full-scale capacities, that helped the market to recover by end of 2021.
