Scale (R&D laboratory, Process Development, Commercial Manufacturing)
The R&D laboratory segment in the single-use mixers market is estimated to gain the largest revenue share of 66.4% by 2036 on account of the increasing production of vaccinations that necessitates extensive research and development (R&D). Single-use mixers enhance production efficiency by eliminating the need for cleaning and sterilization between batches. This is crucial for the vaccine industry, where rapid production and turnaround are essential. Additionally, vaccine production often requires scaling up from clinical trials to large-scale manufacturing. Single-use mixers provide the flexibility to easily scale up operations without extensive reconfiguration or validation.
Product (Mixing Systems, Consumables & Accessories)
The consumables & accessories segment in the single-use mixers market is estimated to register a significant CAGR of 9.5% in the coming years propelled by the rising need for sterility which is essential for biotechnology and pharmaceutical businesses to avoid the introduction of serious infections. More than 20 billion medical devices are sterilized annually to help shield millions of people from the threats posed by fungus, viruses, and bacteria that cause infectious diseases.
In a single-use mixer, consumables and accessories cover a broad range of goods, such as flow pathways, pump heads, conductivity and pressure sensors, filters, bags, and liners offer several advantages, such as fewer capital costs, more flexibility, and fewer requirements for validation, cleaning, and sterilization. To reduce the danger of contamination, a single-use mixer uses fully sterilized bags and components to mix pharmaceutical materials from intermediate to final drug products using cutting-edge technology. For instance, bioprocess bags which are frequently composed of sterile materials are utilized in biopharmaceutical process chains to provide safety when it comes to the storage and transportation of liquids and powders and decrease the possibility of cross-contamination between batches and across products to increase process security.
End-user (Biopharmaceutical Companies, CROs & CMOs, Academic & Research Institutes)
By the end of 2036, the biopharmaceutical companies segment in the single-use mixers market is predicted to have a significant revenue share. The growth of the segment is set to be encouraged by the growing biologics sector which has led to the use of cutting-edge methods to enhance the manufacturing process. The biologics sector is expanding rapidly, with increased production of monoclonal antibodies, gene therapies, and other complex biologics.
