Market Definition
A product's shelf-life is the period during which it remains effective and free of deterioration, and thus sellable, without becoming unfit for use, consumption, or sale. Shelf-life testing is done in a laboratory to determine the expected shelf-life of a food product and when it should be consumed. This test ensures that the product is microbiologically safe. Shelf-life testing lowers the likelihood of product recalls. It also identifies the causes of decreased shelf life and contributes to improving products, processes, and, ultimately, profitability.
Shelf Life Testing Market Dynamics
Drivers
- High demand for packaged foods and growing research and development
The global shelf life testing market is expanding due to rising consumer health concerns and high demand for packaged food. In order to meet regulatory requirements, product manufacturers are investing in research and development. The global shelf life testing market is being driven by the implementation of stringent food safety regulations, advancements in testing technologies, and international trade of food materials.
- Technological advancements and convenience offered to the consumers
The growing digital convenience in the global market has perfectly aligned with the personalization trend. Along with providing a more convenient shopping experience, technology has made product information much more accessible to consumers, increasing packaged food sales and strengthening the shelf life testing market.
Opportunity
Increasing food trade across the borders of emerging markets expands the market's opportunity for growth. The rising number of food-borne illnesses as well as poor sanitation and processing conditions in factories in a few countries necessitate the need for shelf life testing of food. The implementation of regulations in emerging economies that have entered the food trade and the authorization of authorities to prohibit the import and supply of contaminated food and enforce food recalls are expected to increase demand for testing services in these regions.
Restraints
The lack of modernization in technology, as well as a lack of organisation and sophistication in the food systems of developing regions, will be the restraints for the shelf life testing market during the forecast period.
This shelf life testing market report provides details of new recent developments, trade regulations, import-export analysis, production analysis, value chain optimization, market share, impact of domestic and localized market players, analyses opportunities in terms of emerging revenue pockets, changes in market regulations, strategic market growth analysis, market size, category market growths, application niches and dominance, product approvals, product launches, geographic expansions, technological innovations in the market.

COVID-19 Impact on Shelf Life Testing Market
COVID-19 has caused havoc in the food processing industry. Food companies in this industry have been impacted by social distancing rules, labour shortages due to movement restrictions, and lockdown measures to contain the virus's spread. Furthermore, regional governments' actions have limited the number of people working in small areas, which has hampered growth of the food industry.
Recent Development
- SGS announced the expansion of its new food microbiological testing lab in Fairfield, New Jersey, USA, in October 2019. The 2,000-square-foot microbiological testing facility employs an information technology platform to provide a wide range of testing services to food producers, manufacturers, and suppliers across all food categories.
- SGS announced the expansion of its new food microbiological testing lab in Carson, California, in March 2019. The microbiological testing facility is 2,400 square feet in size. This expansion aims to broaden the company's geographical coverage as well as its global network of agriculture and food labs.
