The Testing, Inspection, and Certification Market is expected to reach $150.9 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period of 2023 to 2030.

The growth of the testing, inspection, and certification market is driven by the rise in the illicit trade of forged and pirated goods and the inclination toward outsourcing TIC services. However, dynamic international regulatory standards across regions may restrain the market's growth.

Furthermore, the surge in consumer awareness toward product safety and purity is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for the testing, inspection, and certification market. However, a lack of testing facilities and skilled resources may hinder the growth of this market.

Surge In Consumer Awareness Regarding Food Safety to Offer Growth Opportunities for the Testing, Inspection, And Certification Market

Consumer awareness plays a vital role in implementing products' quality and safety through various means, including social media, labeling, and nutritional facts. Modern-day consumers are progressively becoming aware of food-related issues, such as contaminants, allergens, physiological reactions, and effects of processed and stored food. The rising number of health-conscious consumers and increasing awareness about healthy and safe food products fuel the demand for TIC services in the food & beverage industry. Stringent regulations imposed by the government for food quality and safety concerns draw the attention of major players in the TIC market to formulate new and effective food testing and certification standards. Some of the most prominent TIC services offered by major players are food allergen testing, nutrition label testing, ISO 22000 Food Safety Management Certification, BSI Catering Food Safety Certification, Food Contaminant Testing, and Food Microbiology Testing, among others.

Drastically changing food habits, fast lifestyle, and the consistent surge in foodborne diseases have encouraged the government to introduce various regulations on food safety and its quality to reduce the number of deaths and illnesses caused. Organizations have dedicated themselves to implementing safety testing services based on framed government guidelines to address such safety concerns. Increasing standards and regulations on validation and verification services, consumer demand for certification, stringent regulations imposed by the government for food certifications, and extensive industry standards are significantly creating growth opportunities for the TIC market.
