High Pressure Processing Equipment

Juice & beverages are expected to have the highest growth rate due to the adoption of the technology for processing of packaged beverages by major multi-national companies. Hence, with the growth in the consumption of packaged food and beverages, the use of HPP technology is expected to increase. In terms of vessel volume, the high pressure processing market was led by the 100 to 250L category in 2015. The primary reason behind the large share of this segment is the lower cost of the equipment, which is affordable to food manufacturers operating on a small or medium scale. The fastest-growing segment is expected to be the less than 100L category of equipment, as it requires lesser manpower to operate. The global market, in terms of end user category, is led by the large production plants segment in 2015. This is due to the presence of a large number of packaged meat producers of this category who adopted this technology in order to minimize the usage of preservatives in their products. In terms of orientation type, horizontal equipment accounted for the largest-market share in 2015. Horizontal high pressure processing equipment is used to the largest extent globally. This segment is also the fastest growing as it is easy to assemble and disassemble, install, and ensures more throughput. Therefore, most high pressure processing equipment is horizontal. The horizontal segment dominated this market in 2015, owing to its large-scale application in meat, fruits & vegetables, and juice & beverages in the North American region. North America accounted for the largest market share for high pressure processing equipment, U.S. being the fastest growing in the region, from 2016 to 2022. North America is also projected to be the fastest-growing market for the period considered for this study, due to the high adoption rate of novel food processing technologies and high level of exports of HPP products to other regions. Limited use in vertical orientation segment is one of the restraints for high pressure processing equipment market. The use of vertical orientation segment is limited as is time consuming and requires excess time to load and unload products. Hiperbaric Espana is one of the prominent players in the high pressure processing equipment market. It focuses on strengthening its equipment portfolio by acquiring companies that help in expanding its production capacity of different types of equipment. Other Key players include: The Avure Technologies Inc. (U.S.), Bao Tou KeFa High Pressure Technology, Co., Ltd. (China), CHIC FresherTech (China), Kobe Steel, Ltd. (Japan), Multivac Sepp Haggenmuller Se & Co. KG (Germany), Stansted Fluid Power Ltd (U.K.), Universal Pasteurization Co. (U.S.), Next HPP (U.S.) and ThyssenKrupp AG (Germany).
