Hammer Mill Market - Forecast(2025 - 2031)

The Hammer Mill Market is estimated to reach $22.8 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2025 to 2031. The Hammer Mill Market is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing demand for improved crushing performance and higher operational efficiency. Sustainability concerns are also driving advancements in hammer mill technologies as industries seek eco-friendly and energy-efficient solutions. Additionally, the growing efficiency in the animal feed industry is boosting the market as hammer mills are essential for producing high-quality feed products.
Incorporating automation and energy-efficient technologies in Hammer Mills, and the growing construction industry are some of the key trends influencing the Hammer Mill Market. Under Interim Budget 2024-25, India’s government is prioritizing future infrastructure development through various initiatives like the $1.3 trillion Gati Shakti plan leading systemic reforms and has already made significant progress to date. The Gati Shakti plan boosts infrastructure growth, increasing demand for construction materials where Hammer Mill plays a key role by crushing limestone, gypsum, and aggregates for cement and road building in the coming future. They also help in recycling construction waste, processing metals, and supporting biomass energy simultaneously, making them essential for sustainable infrastructure development.

Hammer Mill Market - Report Coverage:

The report: “Hammer Mill Market – Forecast (2025-2031)”, by IndustryARC, covers an in-depth analysis of the following segments of the Hammer Mill Industry.

Key Takeaways:

APAC is the Largest Segment

Asia-Pacific’s region emerges as the leader, holding the majority market share in 2024. The region’s dominance is due to countries like China, India and Indonesia, which contribute significant growth in infrastructure development, and the animal feed industry. In October 2023, according to the data from the China-Britain Business Council, China’s construction industry is estimated to achieve an average annual growth rate of more than 4% between 2024 and 2027, supported by investment in infrastructure projects in transportation and new urban developments as part of the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021–2025). Additionally, China's infrastructure construction was projected to expand by 17% in 2023, driven by ongoing regional and national government investments. This growth aimed to further develop the world's longest high-speed railway network, reaching approximately 40,000 km that year. 

Full Circle Screen is the Largest Segment

Full Circle Screen holds the largest share in the market in 2024. Unlike other Hammer Mills which typically have only around 180 degrees of screen coverage, it has nearly 300° screen coverage, maximizing grinding surface area, ensuring higher turnover and finer material processing. Full Circle Screen Hammer Mills are widely used for grinding materials like spices, which require efficient and consistent particle size reduction. India, the top spice producer and exporter, shipped $ 4.46 billion in spices in 2023-2024, according to data from the Indian Brand Equity Foundation. This boosts Full Circle Screen Hammer Mills' dominance, making them the largest due to efficiency and versatility across industries like the food processing industry. 

Carbon Steel is the Largest Segment

Carbon Steel holds the largest share in the market due to its strength, affordability, and versatility across applications and industries. It is widely used in agriculture, food processing, biomass, and recycling industries as it handles grain, spices, wood, and industrial materials efficiently. In 2023, CPM launched carbon steel and a high-density framed HM Series Hammer Mill, designed to process animal feed, fish feed, ethanol, and grains which is energy efficient while minimizing noise and vibration. Additionally, they can operate under hard conditions and 24 hours a day and they do not break down. Having such durable product features, carbon steel stands out amongst the others fueling the Hammer Mill Market. 

High Quality Animal Feed to Drive the Market

The UN Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO) estimates that the world will have to produce 60% more food by 2050 and as per IFIF animal protein production will increase – meats (poultry/swine/beef) will double, as well as dairy and fish production will almost triple by 2050. This will also lead to an increased demand for feed. The growing demand for high-quality feed products is a significant driver for the hammer mill market. Hammer mills are essential in the animal feed industry as they ensure the consistent and efficient grinding of raw materials into the desired particle size, which is crucial for the nutritional value and digestibility of feed. These mills also help in maintaining the quality of feed by reducing contamination risks and enhancing the homogeneity of the final product. With the increasing focus on animal health and productivity, the adoption of advanced hammer mills is on the rise.
