The global animal disinfectants market is estimated to be valued at USD 3.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 5.7 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period. The sharp rise in demand is primarily driven by growing awareness of biosecurity practices, especially in livestock and poultry farming. With increasing concerns over the spread of infectious animal diseases and zoonotic threats, the importance of effective disinfection protocols has surged—pushing the market forward.
Why Animal Disinfectants Are in High Demand?
Biosecurity is no longer optional—it’s essential. With growing awareness of diseases such as avian influenza, swine fever, and foot-and-mouth disease, farmers and animal healthcare providers are investing in proper disinfection protocols. Disinfectants help eliminate pathogens from animal housing, equipment, and surroundings, reducing the risk of outbreaks.

Poultry Segment to Witness Significant Growth
Among the various applications, the poultry segment is anticipated to record the fastest growth during the forecast period. Maintaining a disease-free environment is critical in poultry farming, where hygiene directly impacts animal health and product quality.
According to a 2021 OECD study, global meat protein consumption is expected to rise by 14% by 2030, with poultry meat comprising nearly 40% of total protein intake. This surge in demand is driving expansion in poultry farming, thereby increasing the need for reliable disinfectants to maintain hygienic conditions.
Commonly used disinfectants in poultry facilities include phenolic compounds, iodine, chlorine-based agents, quaternary ammonium compounds, and oxidizing agents. These are typically applied as fumigants, foam sprays, or liquid concentrates, following thorough equipment cleaning to eliminate residual pathogens. With avian influenza and other viral outbreaks becoming more prevalent, terminal disinfection has become a vital practice. For instance, Neogen Corporation (US), through its Quat-Chem division, offers virucidal disinfectants tailored to combat poultry diseases. In the EU, Germany stands out as the leading exporter of poultry products, contributing 24% of total regional exports—further highlighting the need for robust disinfection in high-output markets.
Powdered Disinfectants Gaining Popularity
Powdered animal disinfectants are projected to command a significant market share through 2029. Their popularity stems from advantages such as ease of application, safer handling, better shelf stability, and lower risk of spillage compared to liquid forms. Powders are especially effective in controlling biofilms, disinfecting hard-to-reach surfaces, and preventing cross-contamination.
An example of innovation in this space is Neogen’s launch of Viroxide Super in March 2023—a peroxygen-based powdered disinfectant with approved virucidal claims in both the U.S. and Canada. This product is effective against a wide range of viruses, including avian influenza, PRRS, bovine viral diarrhea virus, and African swine fever. The combination of convenience and broad-spectrum efficacy makes powdered disinfectants a preferred choice in many farm settings.

Asia Pacific Leads the Global Market
The Asia Pacific region holds the largest share of the animal disinfectants market, fueled by the growing need to manage disease outbreaks—particularly African Swine Fever (ASF). The region has experienced a wave of ASF cases, with recent outbreaks reported in countries such as India, Malaysia, and Singapore. In India alone, over 10,300 pigs were culled in Mizoram between February and July 2024, and an additional 310 in Kerala in early July.
These outbreaks underscore the urgent need for disease control and prevention, accelerating the adoption of animal disinfectants across the region. Governments and producers are increasingly investing in biosecurity solutions to curb the spread of ASF and other animal diseases, placing disinfectants at the center of disease management strategies. As a result, the Asia Pacific market is expected to continue driving global growth.
