NIR MOISTURE ANALYZERS MARKET ANALYSIS

Near-infrared moisture analyzers (NIR moisture analyzers) are electronic devices that analyze and control the moisture of the product in during various stages of the manufacturing process. NIR moisture analyzers use an infrared light source which is passed through the product sample. Some light is absorbed by the sample and the remaining is reflected and measured. It then proportionately provides the value of the moisture in the sample.

NIR moisture analyzers is majorly used in industries such as food and beverages, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and others to monitor moisture contained in a product sample. For instance, in the food and beverage industry, NIR moisture analyzers can be used to ensure that the raw material provided is up to the company’s standards.

Factors Driving Growth of the Global NIR Moisture Analyzers Market:

NIR moisture analyzers can be used at various stages of food production in order to control and monitor the moisture contained in the product. For instance, in dairy plant, NIR moisture analyzers can be used to analyse the consistency of milk (at initial stage) and milk products such as whey concentrate, cheese, butter, and others (at final after process stage). The increasing demand for these analysers from the food and beverage industry is expected to favour the market growth during the forecast period (2020-2027).

The food and beverage industry has witnessed rapid growth in the recent past. According to Coherent Market Insights analysis, in 2019, companies such as Nestlé S.A., PepsiCo, Inc., and others exhibited steady growth in the packed food sales segment. For instance, in 2019, Nestlé S.A., a Switzerland based food and beverage company, registered 1.2% growth in sales compared to the previous year (2018). Similarly, in 2019, PepsiCo, Inc. a US-based Food company registered sales growth around 4.0% compared to the previous year (2018).

Furthermore, according to Coherent Market analysis, the global food and beverage industry is expected to register a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period (2020-2027). Thus, the increasing demand for packed food is expected to positively impact the growth of the global NIR moisture analyzer market during the forecast period.

However, the accuracy of NIR moisture analyzers to measure the moisture content is limited which can hamper the market growth of the global NIR moisture analyzers market during the forecast period.

Global NIR Moisture Analyzers Market: Regional Insights

On the basis of the region, the NIR moisture analyzers market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa.
