Blood Meal Market Expansion: The Major Factor Driving Growth
The expanding requirement for animal meat is anticipated to accelerate the expansion of the blood meal market in the future. Animal meat encompasses the edible tissues or other consumable components from domesticated or food-source animals like cattle, swine, sheep, fish, and birds, prepared for consumption. Blood meal, a residual product from animal slaughter, serves as a nutritional supplement for farm animals including cattle, fish, and poultry. It is characterized by its rich protein content and minimal concentrations of phosphorus and potassium, making it a valuable animal feed additive. For instance, reports from Carlisle Technology, a US-based firm specializing in food industry software and hardware, indicated in July 2024 that chicken consumption in the US, presently at 98.90 pounds per person, is foreseen to climb to 107.50 pounds by 2033, attributed to its economic accessibility and health advantages. This follows the 98.90 pounds of broiler chicken consumed per capita by Americans in 2022, a figure also anticipated to significantly grow by 2033. Additionally, global poultry meat consumption is projected to reach 154 metric tons over the forecast period, representing approximately half of the overall increase in meat consumption. Consequently, the increasing demand for animal meat is propelling the expansion of the blood meal market.

Key Blood Meal Market Trends To Watch In 2026
Major companies operating in the blood meal market are developing new pilot spray dryers to gain a competitive edge. These pilot spray dryers are scaled-down versions of industrial units, used for producing powdered or granulated materials from liquid or slurry feedstocks. For instance, in April 2023, RELCO LLC, a US-based food processing equipment company, launched the Parvus pilot spray dryer, designed for various food applications. The system is available in two models: Parvus Nomad, a single-stage dryer for trial batches and smaller production volumes, and Parvus Multi-Stage, which features a wide-body design for larger production volumes. This pilot spray dryer offers flexibility for initial testing and scalability, enabling integration with other pilot technology for full-scale planning. It provides moisture control and powder manipulation capabilities similar to full-scale systems but caters to small-scale and trial needs. The system is designed for easy setup and takedown, and its compact size accommodates space constraints and shipping considerations. The pilot spray dryer addresses emerging opportunities in markets like plant protein, fermentation, and collagen.
