North America Feed Anti-Caking Agents Market Analysis

The North America Feed Anti-Caking Agents Market size is estimated at USD 373.60 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 461.14 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

An anti-caking agent is an anhydrous compound added in small quantities to keep particles dry and prevent them from clumping together. Most anti-caking agents work by either absorbing excess moisture or coating particles to make them water-repellent. The increasing demand for high-quality animal products drives the market for feed anti-caking agents. Consumers' growing preference for healthier and more nutritious meat and dairy products puts pressure on livestock producers to meet these expectations. This has led to increased demand for feed anti-caking agents that improve overall animal health. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the per capita consumption of poultry meat in the United States rose from 44.8 to 45.4 kilograms between 2022 and 2023. This increase underscores the need for optimized poultry feed, including the strategic use of feed anti-caking agents to support efficient and healthy growth.

The North American anti-caking agent market for feed encompasses various types, each addressing specific requirements in feed production. Calcium Carbonate is extensively utilized due to its effective moisture absorption capabilities and cost-effectiveness, making it a preferred option for feed manufacturers. Silicon Dioxide, another key type, is valued for its superior performance in preventing feed caking and preserving animal feed quality over extended periods. Its effectiveness in this function establishes it as an essential component in the industry. Research has demonstrated that anti-caking agents can effectively sequester mycotoxins, particularly aflatoxin, in animal feed. This process reduces the toxicity of these compounds by enabling them to pass through the animal's digestive system. These agents decrease the bioavailability of mycotoxins and enhance their excretion in feces. A 2022 study by North Carolina State University revealed that cows fed diets containing 2.5 parts per million (ppm) deoxynivalenol and 0.27 ppm zearalenone produced 3.2 pounds more milk when their feed was supplemented with a clay adsorbent at a rate of 0.5 pounds per cow daily.

Moreover, manufacturers of anti-caking agents used as feed additives for livestock highlight multiple benefits beyond maintaining product flowability. These additives are often marketed as rumen buffers, sources of trace minerals, pH balancers, and agents for reducing ammonia emissions.

Feed anti-caking agents have experienced increased demand due to the requirement for high-quality livestock feed. This trend has led to the establishment of numerous firms, resulting in market dominance by several key players. The feed anti-caking agents market is anticipated to grow during the forecast period, driven by the rapid expansion of the livestock sector, growth in the animal feed market, increasing demand for premium feed, and a rise in the variety of feed additives available.
