The dairy processing sector includes companies that produce dairy products, package, treat, cut, or manufacture them, as well as pack and store them on the premises. The dairy processing equipment are used to process dairy products. The dairy processing equipment is used to keep milk and milk products fresh for many days by storing, filtering, pasteurising, standardization, heating, chilling, and homogenising the product. Dairy processing equipment is required to preserve milk and milk products, extend their shelf life, and prevent diseases and germs from growing.
Dairy processing equipment is essential for preserving milk and milk products, extending their shelf life, and preventing the growth of diseases and germs. The primary types of dairy processing equipment include pasteurizers, homogenizers, evaporators, separators, membrane filtration equipment, and others. Pasteurizers, for example, are utilized to heat milk to 71.7 °C for at least 15 seconds, preparing it for storage or further processing. This equipment come in various operation types, including automatic and semi-automatic, and find applications in processed milk, butter, cheese, milk powder, and protein ingredients.

The anticipated rise in the consumption of dairy products is set to drive the growth of the dairy processing equipment market in the future. Dairy products, derived from mammalian milk, encompass a range of items like cheese, butter, and yogurt, processed from raw milk. Due to their perishable nature, dairy products undergo processing to inhibit the proliferation of harmful microorganisms and extend their shelf life. Notably, as per The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the consumption of dairy products in India is projected to increase by 2.3% annually, reaching 108kg per capita in 2028. This highlights how the escalating consumption of dairy products is a key catalyst for the growth of the dairy processing equipment market.
The increasingly hectic lifestyles of individuals are expected to contribute to the expansion of the dairy processing equipment market in the coming years. A busy lifestyle, characterized by high levels of activity, work, or engagements, has led to a surge in the demand for healthy dairy products, including low-fat milk, yogurt, and cheese. This heightened demand necessitates efficient and large-scale production, driving the need for dairy processing equipment. For instance, according to the American Time Use Survey by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2022, 34% of employed individuals did some or all of their work at home on workdays. On an average day, 85% of women and 70% of men spent time on household activities such as housework, cooking, lawn care, or household management. Hence, the prevalence of busy lifestyles is a key factor fueling the growth of the dairy processing equipment market.
Technological advancements have become a significant trend gaining traction in the dairy processing equipment market. Leading companies in this sector are concentrating on developing new technological solutions to enhance their market position. For example, in July 2023, Team Dairy Experts, a US-based company specializing in dairy research, consulting, training, and laboratory services, highlighted how automation in milk processing plants leads to greater efficiency and productivity. Tasks that were previously manual, time-consuming, and labor-intensive are now automated, resulting in valuable time and resource savings.
Leading companies in the dairy processing equipment market are strategically concentrating on expanding their operations and introducing new dairy processing facilities to broaden their service capabilities and gain a competitive edge. The expansion of facilities and the establishment of new processing plants are critical initiatives for the dairy processing industry to stay competitive and meet the demands of consumers with increasingly busy lifestyles. As an illustration, in October 2023, Walmart, a prominent US-based retail corporation, announced plans to establish a new food processing facility in Valdosta. This Valdosta dairy facility is set to supply high-quality milk to Georgia and neighboring states, catering to over 750 Walmart stores and Sam's Clubs in the region.
In February 2022, ProMach, a US-based packaging company, executed the acquisition of TechniBlend for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move significantly expanded ProMach's portfolio of processing technologies, strengthening its capability to offer comprehensive turnkey production lines. TechniBlend, a US-based supplier company, specializes in providing advanced liquid processing machinery and services across various market segments, including food, dairy, chemicals, and household and personal care products. Their engineering solutions encompass deaerators, batching and blending systems, flash pasteurization systems, can filling and seaming systems, and clean-in-place systems.
