The egg product industry is growing with the food industry to offer safe and ready-to-use eggs to food manufacturers. Pasteurized whole eggs, egg yolks, and egg whites are available in liquid, frozen, or powder form. The processes used in the hen’s egg processing market are aimed at enhancing the sanitary and functional quality of eggs. The high heat sensitivity of egg products is one of the key challenges, limiting the options for bacterial decontamination. Processed egg products include pre-peeled eggs, pre-peeled hard-boiled eggs, and freeze-dried scrambled eggs. Processed egg products that are available in frozen form include pre-cooked fried eggs, pre-cooked scrambled eggs, omelets, french toast, and quiche. Egg products have potential as a practical type of ingredient in the food and beverage industry for the fast production of foodstuffs that require egg and egg components, as it substantially reduces manual work.
Market Dynamics
The convenience, ease of use, and storage of processed eggs drive the global hen's egg processing market growth. As the urban population rises and people's lifestyles become busier, the need for convenience food increases. Processed eggs reduce the need to physically break shells and separate different components of the egg. Furthermore, as a result of technology improvements, processed eggs are more effectively treated and pasteurized, ensuring safety, reduced danger of contamination, and longer shelf life.
Processed eggs are also often used as a source of high-quality protein in sports and bodybuilding. Moreover, processed eggs have the potential to be utilized in new culinary food stuffs.
However, rising food safety requirements, prolonged regulatory procedures, and strict animal welfare legal regulations are among the key factors acting as restraints on the hen’s egg processing market. In the U.S., for example, both the United States Food and Drug Administrationand the USDA's Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) have jurisdiction over eggs and egg products. Plants that process egg products are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
