Iron deficiency is one of the world's widespread micronutrient deficiency among infants and children aged six months to two years. The application of essential micronutrients in infant formulas is rising, owing to rising consumer preference for nutritional fortification in infant formula and baby food products. Hectic lifestyles of women, improper care due to devotion of less time to kids, and insufficient intake of nutrients by infants from breastfeeding, are expected to grow the demand for infant formulas with essential nutrients. Thus, there is a rising demand for iron fortification in infant formula.

The iron processors are increasing their production capacities and enhancing the production capability by using cutting-edge processing technologies. The processors are setting up production plants in areas where naturally occurring iron ores are present in abundance, in order to reduce the sourcing costs as well as meet the local market demands. Thus, benefiting in increasing sales and widening regional footprints. The use of technology due to advancement in production machineries resulting in increasing yield with shorter processing times, is further expected to enhance the productivity of iron powder for food applications.
