Single-Use Bioreactors for Pharma:
World Market 2013-2023
Growth in those markets will be driven by increasing uptake of biotherapeutic agents using single-
use bioreactor technologies. By 2023, the combined revenues of the German, UK, French, Italian
and Spanish markets will be $26.8m, achieving a CAGR of 5.8% for the period 2012 to 2023.
Higher growth rates still are expected in eastern European markets, owing to rapid economic
growth in these countries, with rising demand for vaccines and other biologic agents.
3.4.4 Emerging National Markets for Single-Use Bioreactor Technology
The market for single-use bioreactors technology systems is growing rapidly in developing
countries, where rising standards of living and rapid growth in numbers of elderly people are
increasing the demand for biologic pharmaceuticals, with cancer being an important treatment
area. In 2012, the leading emerging-economy markets for single-use bioreactors were those of
China ($2.9m) and India ($0.6m), with combined other markets group generating revenues of
$1.6m (Table 3.19). During the forecast period, 2012 to 2023, the Chinese and Indian pharma
industries will be among the most rapidly growing in the world. This growth will benefit the single-
use bioreactors industry and market.
3.4.5 The Chinese Single-Use Bioreactors Technology Market, 2013-
2023
The Chinese single-use bioreactors technology market was worth an estimated $2.9m in 2012, a
5.5% share of the world market. The Chinese pharmaceutical market is expanding rapidly, driven
by that country's rapid economic development, the rise of personal incomes and improvements in
the country's medical system, especially wider healthcare coverage. Western medicines are
becoming widely accepted in China, and there is also a shift to western-style diets and lifestyles,
which is likely to be responsible for an increasing demand for pharmaceutical products (including
biologic drugs and vaccines).
As a result, the total Chinese market for single-use bioreactor technologies will grow rapidly from
2012 to 2023. Growth will be highest from 2012 to 2017. By 2017, the market will be worth $5.6m,
with a CAGR of 14.1% from 2012 to 2017 (Tables 3.15-3.16 and Figures 3.11 and 3.15-3.18). After
2017, growth will slow, as the Chinese economy stabilises after a period of rapid growth. By 2023,
its single-use bioreactors market will have reached $8.0m, representing a CAGR of 9.8% from
2012 to 2023.
