Single-use Bioprocessing Market - Global Opportunities and Trends Analysis Report 2018-2028

In many ways, single-use bioprocessing systems will eventually dominate much of the creation of biopharmaceuticals, especially at smaller scales, as they now predominate the pre-commercial market and are trending toward higher use for commercial-scale manufacturing. Fixed stainless steel systems will continue to be used in the majority of commercial biopharmaceutical manufacturing, especially for high-volume pharmaceuticals, as they are frequently still economically more viable at scales.

However, single-use facilities will eventually take over the bioprocessing industry in terms of the number of facilities, process lines, products produced, and labor done by bioprocessing professionals, particularly at clinical scales. For the research and production of pharmaceutical goods like monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, customized medicine, and others, single-use bioprocessing uses disposable technologies.

During the creation of several biopharmaceuticals and drug development phases, the use of single-use bioprocessing products has increased significantly. This innovation has made medication manufacturing more efficient, straightforward, and affordable both upstream and downstream. The market for single-use bioprocessing is expected to develop as a result of factors such as the rise in disposable technology adoption, the rising need for biopharmaceuticals, the reduced risk of product cross-contamination associated with SUB technologies, and the need for less floor space.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The initiatives heavily rely on single-use technologies since they are adaptable, economical, and less likely to cause cross-contamination. It is projected that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to enhance the usage of these bioprocessing systems and fuel business expansion. Single-use manufacturers have expanded their production facilities worldwide as a result of the commercial success of biopharmaceuticals. Furthermore, many firms' multi-year strategies have included capacity expansion initiatives as a way to take advantage of their worldwide reach and larger client bases. Owing to this, the spread of COVID-19 pandemic has positively affected the growth of single use bioprocessing market.

Market Growth Factors

Rising Need For Biopharmaceuticals

One in six persons worldwide will be over 65 by 2050 (16%), up from one in eleven (9%), according to data from the UN. By 2050, there will be 426 million people who are 80 years of age or older, which is expected to quadruple the current population of 143 million. The demand for biopharmaceuticals is anticipated to rise as the senior population grows across key markets since the aged are more susceptible to chronic illnesses & conditions.

Continuously Growing Investment In Developing Countries

Emerging nations such as China and India offer great growth opportunities. This is mainly because these countries have a skilled labor force and access to favorable government backing, growing private investments, rising desire to outsource to developing markets. It's possible that industry participants will find new sources of income in such nations. The significant infrastructure investment in biomanufacturing is also a key factor in these sectors' high expansion potential. This investment was made to meet the rising need for the production of vaccines and biologics.

Market Restraining Factors

Leachables And Extractables-Related Issues

In recent years, the development of bioprocesses and the production of biopharmaceuticals have both embraced single-use technology to a large extent. Even though the advantages of these technologies are well acknowledged, there are serious worries about extractables and leachables that come from single-use systems due to their possible impact on product quality and patient health. Before implementing disposable technologies into manufacturing, it is important to understand how they will affect the quality and safety of drug products.

Single-use Bioprocessing Market Share and Industry Analysis Report 2021

Product Outlook

Based on product, the single-use bioprocessing market is segmented into simple & peripheral elements, apparatus & plants, and work equipment. In 2021, the simple & peripheral elements segment dominated the single-use bioprocessing market with maximum revenue share. This is due to ongoing improvements in these products and the rising importance of bioprocessing operations in the overall manufacturing process. The simple & peripheral elements segment was dominated by filters, tubing, connectors, and transfer systems since most single-use vendors offer tubing and connections in a format that is compatible with bioreactors, single-use bags, or other single-use bioprocessing equipment.

Workflow Outlook

On the basis of workflow, the single-use bioprocessing market is fragmented into upstream bioprocessing, fermentation and downstream bioprocessing. In 2021, the upstream bioprocessing segment held the largest revenue share in the single-use bioprocessing market. This is because of the ongoing improvements and advances in upstream bioprocessing technology. For instance, cutting-edge technologies like the micro-bioreactor system offer automated experimental setup and sampling in addition to high-throughput upstream process development, efficient cell culture processing, and media & feed optimization.

End Use Outlook

By end use, the single-use bioprocessing market is divided into biopharmaceutical manufacturers and academic & clinical research institutes. The academic & clinical research institutes segment recorded a significant revenue share in the single-use bioprocessing market in 2021. The implementation of these technologies in academic and research institutions has been hastened by the development of benchtop scale bioprocessing equipment and single-use system technology.
