식품 압출기 시장 기회, 성장요인, 업계 동향 분석 및 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Food Extrusion Equipment Market was valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% to reach USD 2.6 billion by 2034.

Increasing consumer interest in plant-based alternatives to meat and seafood is creating substantial opportunities for specialized extrusion technologies. High moisture extrusion cooking (HMEC) is enabling manufacturers to achieve fibrous, meat-like textures in alternative protein products, fueling demand for advanced twin-screw extruders designed for high moisture meat analogues (HMMA). The shift toward flexitarian diets, driven by consumers looking for sustainable, animal-free protein options, is further supporting this trend. At the same time, the rising preference for snacks that combine great taste with nutritional benefits aligns well with extrusion technology. This process enables the creation of low-fat, high-protein, and high-fiber foods through precise control of temperature, pressure, and ingredient composition. Extrusion offers an efficient, continuous method that merges several manufacturing stages into a single operation, significantly reducing energy and water consumption while optimizing floor space and production speed. These advantages make extrusion a cost-effective and sustainable choice in a highly competitive food manufacturing environment.

In 2024, the single-screw extruders segment generated USD 1 billion. Their growth is largely driven by lower investment requirements and operational simplicity, making them an attractive choice for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and manufacturers in developing regions. These systems provide a practical and affordable entry point for businesses seeking to expand or modernize production without large capital expenditures.

The fully automatic systems segment generated USD 900 million in 2024. The increasing adoption of automated extruders has greatly enhanced product consistency, precision, and overall efficiency. Advanced automation technologies, including sensors, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and real-time monitoring tools, allow manufacturers to maintain strict control over key production variables such as temperature, feed rate, pressure, and moisture. With minimal operator intervention, these systems significantly reduce the risk of human error and ensure uniform product quality across large production volumes.

United States Food Extrusion Equipment Market accounted for 81.8% share in 2024, generating USD 420 million. The country's market is characterized by advanced manufacturing capabilities, stringent regulatory standards, and a strong focus on automation and food safety. A mature processed food sector, including categories like snacks, cereals, pet food, and alternative proteins, continues to drive investments in extrusion systems that offer high throughput, consistent quality, and compliance with regulatory guidelines set by the FDA and USDA.

Leading companies operating in the Global Food Extrusion Equipment Market include Bausano, Bonnot, GEA, Buhler, CPM, B&P Littleford, Cowin Extrusion, Leistritz, Baker Perkins, Wenger, Legris, Coperion, Steer World, Xtrutech, and Xinda Corp. These players are focusing on continuous innovation and technical advancement to stay ahead in this evolving landscape. Major manufacturers in the Global Food Extrusion Equipment Market are focusing on a mix of strategic initiatives to strengthen their global presence. Many are investing heavily in research and development to design machines capable of handling novel ingredients and delivering enhanced texture control for plant-based products. Companies are also entering strategic partnerships and collaborations to expand their technology portfolios and reach new regional markets.
