Market Driver

The Egg Processing Equipment Market is experiencing significant growth due to the adoption of advanced technologies like shockwave technology and infusion systems. Shockwave technology, provided by SPX FLOW Inc. Through their APV Cavitator, utilizes direct heat application to liquid egg products without the need for heat transfer surfaces. This results in improved efficiency, reduced energy and water usage, extended shelf life, and enhanced product flavor and functional properties. In contrast, infusion systems hold products at higher temperatures before flash cooling, allowing for ultra-high temperature (UHT) processing. Both technologies contribute to increased production capacity and product quality, driving the market's growth during the forecast period. 

The Egg Processing Equipment Market is experiencing significant growth due to increasing demand for eggs in various food products and dietary supplements. With a focus on improving nutrient content, egg processing machines produce powders and pasteurized eggs, enriched with essential fatty acids, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. The poultry industry's priority on product quality, shelf life, and biosecurity drives the adoption of advanced technologies like robotics, pasteurization, and heat treatment. In-line and offline processing systems ensure efficient production and reduce the risk of Salmonella contamination. Big data and system integration are key trends, enabling real-time monitoring and optimization of the egg processing line. The market caters to diverse industries, including confectioneries, veganism, and dehydrated and powdered eggs, requiring refrigeration and automation solutions.

Market Challenges

• The global egg processing equipment market is experiencing a potential shift due to the rising trend of veganism. With an increasing number of consumers adopting veganism, there is a growing demand for egg substitutes such as flaxseeds, baking powder, soy flour, and aquafaba. These substitutes are used in various food products like bakery mixes, sauces, confectioneries, and more. The health-conscious consumer base is expanding, leading to a decrease in demand for animal-derived products, including eggs. The higher fat content, cholesterol, and calories in eggs have been linked to health issues and chronic diseases like heart diseases and cancer. Consequently, restaurants and eateries worldwide are offering vegan food options. This shift towards plant-based alternatives may restrict the demand for egg processing equipment during the forecast period.
• The egg processing industry faces several challenges from shifting consumer preferences and trends. With the rise of plant-based lifestyles among Gen Z and millennials, demand for alternative protein sources is increasing. Animal cruelty concerns also impact sales, leading to the development of cage-free systems and automation technologies. Egg farmers must adapt to meet the needs of health-conscious individuals, offering functional egg products, low-cholesterol options, and high-protein varieties. Allergy-friendly solutions and sustainable nutrition are also key considerations. Traditional equipment like palletizers and depalletizers, pasteurizers, homogenizers, and packaging technologies are essential for processing liquid, frozen, and dried eggs. Bakery, confectionery, and the food service industry rely on egg whites and yolks for convenience food and ready-to-eat meals. Advanced automation technologies, such as freeze-drying, enzyme modification, and automated packing, stacking, and palletization, are crucial for maintaining efficiency and competitiveness. Plant-based egg alternatives from sources like maize, soybeans, leftover fish, and seashells are also gaining popularity, requiring innovative processing methods. Insurance schemes and sustainable farming practices are also important considerations for egg farmers.

1.1 Liquid egg products-  Liquid egg products are gaining popularity in the food service industry due to their versatility and extended shelf life. These products include liquid egg whites, yolks, and blends, and are used in various food applications such as confectioneries, cakes, mayonnaise, desserts, ice cream, puddings, meringues, and more. Liquid egg products have a shelf life of 2-6 days, which is extended through ultra-pasteurization and aseptic packaging. Salt and sugar are added for preservation and processing. Liquid egg products require less storage space than fresh eggs, saving 60% in storage requirements. However, they are microbiologically sensitive, requiring pasteurization within 5 hours of breakage. Processing equipment must meet hygiene and food-grade standards to prevent bacterial contamination. Companies like ACTINI GROUP offer complete production lines for liquid egg processing, including breaking, filtration, inline dosing, pasteurization, and homogenization equipment. Pelbo, part of Moba Group, also provides filters, pasteurizers, and compact pasteurizers for liquid egg processing.
