First Half Outlook (2025–2030): Regulatory Compliance Takes Center Stage

Between 2025 and 2030, the market will advance from USD 9,847 million to USD 12,894 million, adding USD 3,047 million, which accounts for 41% of total decade growth. This period marks the global transition from basic material testing to highly sophisticated validation systems.

Key shifts include:

  • Standardization of barrier performance, migration testing, and shelf-life assessment
  • Increased adoption of multi-parameter analytical platforms
  • Regulatory institutions tightening compliance requirements across food, pharmaceutical, and personal-care segments

During this phase, industry leaders such as SGS SA, Bureau Veritas, Intertek Group, Eurofins Scientific, and TÜV SÜD continue expanding their global laboratory networks, supporting multinational brands preparing for stricter safety norms.

Second Half Outlook (2030–2035): High-End Analytical Systems Become Mainstream

The period from 2030 to 2035 will add USD 4,341 million, representing 59% of total decade growth. This phase is defined by:

  • Mass-market penetration of automated and real-time analytical testing
  • Deeper integration with manufacturing systems
  • Universal adoption of digital validation protocols
  • Rapid growth in multi-industry applications

As packaging materials evolve rapidly with new polymers, sustainability standards, and smart-packaging technologies, demand for full-spectrum testing solutions becomes essential.
