The global bioreactors market size crossed USD 1.70 billion in 2017. Rising investment in biotechnology & pharmaceutical sector and significant demand for stainless steel as a choice of the reactor construction material are some of the key driving bioreactors market trends. North America and Europe accounted for a significant bioreactor market share among other regions in 2017, owing to high product utilization in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and research & development.
Global Bioreactors Market Trends, 2017- 2025 (USD Billion)
Single-use and multi-use bioreactors are the key product segments of the market. Single use bioreactor market is likely to increase at the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. A single-use bioreactor typically contains a disposable bag in place of a culture vessel. These products utilize a sterilized cell chamber in which the cell culture is maintained. The cell chamber reduces the cross-contamination risks as it is used for single growth operation. Furthermore, the use of single-use bioreactors optimizes the sterilization, cleaning, validation, and maintenance procedures needed for each bioreactor run.
The single use bioreactor market demand is expected to rise in pharmaceutical and R&D applications, owing to the key attributes of the product. High flexibility in terms of usage, less downtime, and controlled microbial contamination are some of the key attributes exhibited by the single-use bioreactors.
Multi-use or reusable bioreactors can be used numerous times. Reusable bioreactors require expensive and bulky clean-in-place (CIP) or steam-in-place (SIP) installations. The disposable bag of the single-use bioprocessors avoids the need to use CIP and SIP systems. The disposable bags are usually made of a three-layer plastic foil, with the layers frequently consisting of polyethylene, PVA, PVC, and polypropylene combinations to minimize leakage. The multi-use bioreactor segment accounted for more than two-third share of the global bioreactors market size in 2017.
The end-uses or applications that have supported strong bioreactors market trends include contract research organizations (CROs), biotechnology & pharmaceutical, and others. Contract research organizations (CROs) are a key constituent of the drug development process, providing a range of services to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies, as well as governments, academic institutions, and other research entities.
Single-use bioreactors are extensively used in CROs. CROs typically handle different products on account of which it is economical to use disposable bags in place of a stainless-steel vessel. The growing number of CROs is expected to augment the growth of the single use bioreactor market industry over the next few years.
U.S. was the largest market for biopharmaceuticals in North America. A large number of pipelines within the healthcare sector is expected to give rise to a large number of clinical trials which is likely to boost the global bioreactors market size by 2025. In addition, increasing trends of outsourcing by biopharma companies to CROs is expected to enhance the bioreactors market trends in the country, over the years ahead. North America and Europe are anticipated to portray strong bioreactors market trends during the forecast period.
Global Bioreactor Market Share, By Region, 2017 (%)
Europe has made significant advances in health outcomes over the past 60 years. The life expectancy of individuals has increased by nearly a decade, and effective treatments have become available for many of the most common infectious diseases. At the same time, biomedical R&D is breaking new ground in understanding patients’ specific genetic characteristics, paving the way for targeted, more effective therapies based on personalized medicine. Europe needs to continue this trend, but it will require new models for innovation and adaptation on all levels across the healthcare delivery chain. These factors are expected to boost the bioreactor market share of Europe by the end of 2025.
Sartorius AG, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Merck KGaA, GE Healthcare Limited, Danaher (Pall Corporation), Eppendorf AG, Praj HiPurity Systems Limited, Pierre Guerin, Zeta Holding GmbH, and Applikon Biotechnology B.V. are the key players that accounted for a significant share of the global bioreactors market size in 2017.
