市場動態
Global Laboratory Filtration Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Product (Filters & Filter Media, Filtration Assemblies and Filtration Accessories), by Material (Filtration Membrane and Filtration Media), by Technology (Microfiltration, Nanofiltration, Vacuum Filtration, Ultrafiltration and Reverse Osmosis), by Type (Sterile Filtration and Non-Sterile Filtration), and by End-Users (Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Companies, Academic & Research Institutes and Hospital & Clinical Laboratories) Forecast Period (2024-2031)
The global laboratory filtration market is anticipated to grow at a moderate CAGR of 12.8% during the forecast period (2024-2031). The market growth is attributed to the rise in investment in R&D in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, a growing trend in the adoption of membrane filtration, a growth in the demand for single-use filtration products, and stricter regulatory requirements. Furthermore, the market is growing owing to the rise in demand for advanced membrane filtration systems and the rising number of laboratories in developing nations. According to the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC), in October 2022, 85,000 laboratories were operating globally.
Market Dynamics
Increasing Adoption of Membrane Technology Systems in Developing Countries
Compared to traditional technologies, membrane technology has advantages such as easier handling, less energy usage, and gentle product treatment. It is anticipated that the market will rise more quickly owing to the growing use of ultrafiltration in the food processing sector, water purification systems, and protein bioseparation. The membrane technology's significantly higher initial and ongoing costs when compared to traditional water treatment methods are however a restraint.
Increasing Adoption of Single-Use Disposable Filters
Single-use filter assemblies are frequently utilized for cleaning, sterilizing, and recycling in place of traditional pharmaceutical processing equipment since they are sterile. This is why biopharmaceutical developers are using disposable filtering units increasingly. Owing to their low operational volume requirements, certain single-use filtration systems as well as filter capsules and cartridges provide greater flexibility in production volumes, which may be gradually increased based on demand. Market players designed cartridges for ultrafiltration and microfiltration and for pharmaceutical filtration applications right from pilot to process scale. Single-use filters reduce the risk of cross-contamination, thereby facilitating rapid changeovers and multiple production batches.
Market Segmentation
Our in-depth analysis of the global laboratory filtration market includes the following segments product, material, technology, type, and end-users.
Microfiltration is Projected to Emerge as the Largest Segment
Among these microfiltration, sub-segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market. The primary factors supporting the segment's growth include increasing demand in pharmaceutical and biologics R&D, as well as the growing use of microfiltration membranes as a prefilter to ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. Market expansion will also be aided by the growing focus on the research and production of biosimilars. For instance, in November 2023, Asahi Kasei opened a new bioprocess technical center in China. As an affiliate of Asahi Kasei Medical, Asahi Kasei Bioprocess (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (AKBC) performs the import and sale of Planova(TM) virus removal filters, BioOptimal(TM) microfilters, and related equipment, to pharmaceutical companies in China.
Sterile Filtration Sub-segment to Hold a Considerable Market Share
Among these, the sterile filtration sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share of the market. The growing emphasis on biomedical research, the growing need for sterile filtration in liquid biopharmaceutical processing, and the benefits of sterile filtration over non-sterile filtration. The need for sterile filtration technologies to maintain sterile conditions and prevent cross-contamination is driven by biomedical research, which includes investigations involving cell culture, tissue engineering, and drug discovery. For instance, in January 2024, Ahlstrom receives FDA 510(k) clearance for Reliance(R) Fusion, the next-generation sterilization wrap. that helps increase efficiency in the sterilization of surgical equipment trays at hospitals. FDA 510(k) clearance is needed to market and sell medical devices in the US.
The global laboratory filtration market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (the UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
Increasing Demand for Laboratory Filtration in Europe
North America Holds Major Market Share
Among all the regions, North America holds a significant share owing to the presence of numerous prominent laboratory filtration companies such as 3M, Danaher Corp, Steris, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., and laboratory filtration providers in the region. The growth is attributed to the increased biomedical research including studies involving cell culture, tissue engineering, and drug discovery, which drives the demand for sterile filtration technologies to maintain sterile conditions and prevent cross-contamination propelling the growth of the laboratory filtration market. For instance, in March 2023, Donaldson Company, Inc. introduced innovative filtration solutions Alpha-Web(R) filtration media. The new hydraulic filtration technology significantly improves hydraulic fluid cleanliness which can extend hydraulic component life, decrease downtime, and lower the cost of equipment ownership. Alpha-Web filtration technology features a first-of-its-kind fine-fiber layer to trap and lock particles during frequent flow-rate changes, delivering transformational improvement in hydraulic equipment protection.
The major companies serving the global laboratory filtration market include Danaher Corp., Eaton Corp. plc, Merck KGaA, Sartorius AG, and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. among others. The market players are increasingly focusing on business expansion and product development by applying strategies such as collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in December 2023, Micronics Engineered Filtration Group announced the strategic acquisition of innovative, global industrial filtration solutions provider, SOLAFT(R) filtration solutions. The acquisition of Solaft expands Micronics' portfolio of engineered filtration solutions and its geographic footprint to better serve global customers' filtration needs in industries.
