Pet food extrusion is a manufacturing process used to produce dry pet food products such as kibble and pellets. The process involves mixing raw ingredients like meat, grains, vitamins, and minerals, and then cooking them under high temperature and pressure using extrusion machines. This method improves the digestibility, texture, and shelf life of pet food products.

The growth of the pet food extrusion market is closely linked to the increasing global pet ownership, rising awareness about pet nutrition, and growing demand for high-quality and convenient pet food products. Pet owners are increasingly seeking nutritionally balanced food products for their pets, driving the adoption of advanced pet food processing technologies.

In addition, innovations in extrusion technology allow manufacturers to produce specialized pet food products, including grain-free, organic, and functional pet diets.
