A food recycler functions as a device or system that processes food waste, typically utilizing methods such as composting, dehydration, or fermentation. These processes convert food scraps and leftovers into compost, fertilizer, or animal feed, effectively reducing the amount of waste destined for landfills and promoting environmental sustainability.
The primary components of a food recycler include its products and associated services. The product itself consists of the transformed, value-added materials derived from recycled food waste, which can manifest in various forms such as fertilizer, supplements, or repurposed food ingredients. These products are constructed from materials such as steel, stainless steel, carbon steel, plastic, fiber, among others, and are available across different price ranges such as economical and premium. They are distributed through various channels including original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), distributors, retailers, and e-commerce platforms, catering to a diverse range of end users including residential and commercial sectors.

The food recycler market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $32.90 billion in 2023 to $35.17 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth observed in the historical period can be linked to several factors, rising environmental awareness, the growing popularity of organic farming and gardening, increasing urbanization, government initiatives such as smart cities, population growth, and heightened concerns regarding efficient waste management.
The food recycler market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $46.47 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by various factors including heightened concerns over food wastage, consumer preference for eco-friendly products, increased adoption of circular economy practices, government policies and regulations, growing environmental awareness, and increasing focus on climate change. Key trends expected in this period include technological advancements, ongoing research and development, collaborations and partnerships, the recycling of food waste into fertilizers, and advancements in recycling and composting techniques.
The food recycler market is poised for growth driven by increasing demand for natural and organic products. Natural products derive their ingredients from natural sources, while organic products are produced using materials from organic agriculture, adhering to strict production and certification standards. This demand is propelled by sustainability, eco-friendliness, evolving consumer preferences, and heightened awareness of health and environmental issues. Food recyclers are pivotal in supporting the production and sustainability of organic products by transforming organic waste into valuable resources such as compost and renewable energy, fostering environmentally friendly agricultural practices. For example, in May 2023, organically grown cereal crops in the UK increased by 6.2% to 49 thousand hectares in 2022, while organically grown vegetables (including potatoes) expanded by 4.8% to 10 thousand hectares compared to 2021. Thus, the rising demand for natural and organic products drives growth in the food recycler market.
Key players in the food recycler market are focusing on innovation, such as countertop food recyclers, to promote sustainability and reduce environmental impact. Countertop food recyclers are compact devices designed for kitchen countertops, offering households a convenient way to recycle food waste. These devices are increasingly popular among environmentally conscious consumers and businesses seeking sustainable waste management solutions at a household or small-scale level. For instance, Tero, a Canada-based company, developed an award-winning countertop food recycler in September 2021. Using drying and grinding technology, it reduces food waste volume by up to 90%, handling a variety of materials including cheese, dairy, avocado seeds, bones, meat, poultry, and fish. Its sleek design blends functionality and aesthetics while overcoming challenges associated with traditional composting, such as odors, insects, and space requirements.
In August 2022, Whirlpool Corporation, a US-based manufacturer of home appliances, completed the acquisition of InSinkErator for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition is aimed at strengthening Whirlpool's portfolio in the kitchen appliance sector and expanding its offerings in sustainable food waste management solutions.
