Market Trends of Feed Anti-Caking Agents Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Feed Anti-Caking Agents Market according to our research experts:
Expansion of the Compound Feed Industry is Driving the Market's Growth
The market studied is primarily driven by the expansion of the animal feed market. As the livestock industry registered a low growth rate, there is an increasing need for animal feed. This is expected to drive the demand for feed additives, particularly feed anti-caking agents. Moreover, silicates are widely used as anti-caking agents, as silicates can absorb, both, water and oil. Sodium and calcium products, such as sodium ferrocyanide and tricalcium phosphate are witnessing high demand, as they reduce individual adhesion of feed.
North America and Europe are the Major Regions in the Market
The North American region is the largest geographical segment in the global feed anti-caking agents market, closely followed by Europe. Poultry and swine accounted for 40% and 25% of the market share, respectively. The United States accounted for almost 70% of the regional market share, mainly due to its well-established livestock production industry. Additionally, the need for high-quality feed is driving the growth of the market studied.
