The global lyophilization equipment and services market is estimated to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021 – 2028. Lyophilization is a process for preserving perishable items and extending their shelf life by removing water content of the items while increasing the convenience of transport. Lyophilization includes a series of functions such as freezing the item, subsequently decreasing the pressure, and supplementing heat to permit the frozen water content to undergo sublimation. Lyophilization allows the direct conversion of ice from solid to vapor without transitioning it into the liquid state. The process can be concisely summed up as freezing, sublimation, and desorption. Lyophilization helps to simplify aseptic handling and enhancing dry powder stability.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities:
- Factors such as the sizeable growth in the number of biopharmaceutical companies, the soaring demand for aseptic preservation and packaging, and the rise in the manufacturing of protein-based drugs are expected to boost the demand for freeze-drying. This is expected to grow the market.
- Sizeable number of pharmaceutical and food products are becoming commercially viable only through the assistance of lyophilization; thereby, rising demand for the services.
- The demand for lyophilized products across several industries associated with the preservative items is expected to create opportunities for the market during the forecast period.
- Rising awareness of the equipment and services along with increasing disposable income of consumers are anticipated to boost the growth of the market.
- Lofty costs in setting up the lyophilization equipment coupled with stringent regulatory rules regarding the procurement of equipment are acting as key factors that can hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
