Downstream
Processing Market Share was valued at USD 21.5 billion in 2022 and is
projected to grow from USD 24.95 Billion in 2023 to USD 61.09 billion by 2030,
exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.09% during the forecast
period (2023 - 2030).
Downstream processing refers to the series
of operations required to derive pure and homogeneous protein products from
biological materials such as cells, tissue culture fluid, or plant tissues.
There is a high demand for the end products extracted by downstream processing,
owing to the increasing applicationsin biopharmaceutical products. Thus, the downstream
processing market is anticipated to observe significant growth during the
forecast period.
Many market players are dominating the
global downstream processing market. The prominent players are involved in
strategic agreements,new product launches& developments,joint ventures,
partnerships, collaborations, mergers & acquisitions, geographic
expansionto sustaintheir market positions.For instance, in March 2021, Thermo
Fisher Scientific, Inc. (US) announced that more than USD 600 million would be
invested to expand its bioprocessing production capabilities through 2022 to
meet short-term demands related to COVID-19 as well as long-term efforts to
improve new vaccines and biologics for other conditions.
Key Players
Some of the key players in the global
downstream processing market are Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (US), Sartorius
Stedim Biotech S.A. (France), Merck Millipore (Germany), Danaher Corporation
(US), 3M Company (US), Boehringer Ingelheim (Germany), Lonza Group AG
(Switzerland), Eppendorf AG (Switzerland), Corning Incorporated (US), and Asahi
Kasei Corporation (Japan).
Segmentation
The global downstream
processing market outlook has been segmented into technique, product,
application, and end user.
By technique, the market has been
segregated into cell disruption, solid-liquid separation,
clarification/concentration, downstream purification techniques, and
formulation. The purification techniques segment is further sub-segmented into
ion exchange, affinity exchange, hydrophobic interaction, size exclusion
chromatography, and others. The purification techniques segment held a
significant share of the market in 2020, as it isone of the vital steps in
downstream processing and has high product differentiation.
Based on the product, the global downstream
processing market has been classified as chromatography columns &resins,
filters, membrane adsorbers, and others. The chromatography columns
&resinsis one of the most widely used product andwasestimated to bethe
largest segment in 2020.
Based on application, the downstream
processing market is segmented into antibiotic production, hormone production,
antibodies production, vaccine production, and others. Antibiotic productionis
one of the vital applications owing to increasing infectious diseases.
Furthermore, the ongoing pandemic has created a huge demand for vaccine
production globally which further supports the growth of the market.
Based on the end user, the downstream
processing market is segmented into biopharmaceutical manufacturers, contract
manufacturing organizations, and others. The biopharmaceutical manufacturers
segment held the largest market share in 2020 due to increased R&D activities
and production of biologics at a largescale, along with the rapidly growing
biopharmaceutical industry.
Regional Analysis
By region, North America is anticipated to
dominate the global downstream processing market, owing to well-established
research organizations involved in research activities, the presence of a high
number of contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs), and the presence of a
largenumber of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies. Moreover, the
rise in R&D investments by public and private players in the healthcare
sectorfurther drives the market growth.
On the other hand, the European downstream
processing market is driven by rising R&D expenditure by biopharmaceutical
companies, increasing investments in the R&D sector, and the presence of
key market players. For instance, in November 2019, Thermo Fisher Scientific,
Inc. (US) announced that it is investing nearly USD 24 million in its Scotland
site to expand global bioproduction capabilities with additional large-volume
liquid manufacturing capacity for cell culture media.
