Industrial Microbiology Market Size Worth $19.36 Billion By 2030

Industrial Microbiology Market Growth & Trends

The global industrial microbiology market size is expected to reach USD 19.36 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.9% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing discovery and development of vaccines, drugs, and vitamins by the pharmaceutical sector are expected to enhance the demand for industrial microbiology. Additionally, constant innovation in the technology employed for testing is expected to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of microbiology tests in numerous industries.

Industrial microbiology in the food and beverage industry is increasing and is expected to have significant growth during the forecast period. For instance, in November 2022, bioMerieux announced the availability of its product, Bottlesafe, across the globe. The product offers pre-bottling testing for wineries. Bottlesafe provides sufficient insights to verify filtration in less than 4 hours, as compared to 2 to 5 days in traditional microbiological testing. Similarly, the demand for pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries is also increasing. For instance, in August 2022, SpectrumX announced the expansion of its team to maintain product quality through industrial microbiology testing thereby accelerating the overall process of bringing the product to the market.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market. Industrial microbiology was used for diagnosing COVID-19, majorly through antigen tests, and nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT). As of January 2021, some of the companies in Japan such as Sysmex Corporation, Kyorin Pharmaceutical Company Limited, and Shimadzu Corporation, made nucleic acid amplification tests available for COVID-19 tests.

The growing strategic initiatives such as production or regional expansion by the companies are anticipated to boost the industrial microbiology market growth in the times to come. For instance, in October 2022, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. announced an investment of USD 59 million to expand its lab operations in Kentucky. The expansion is part of the global strategy to offer high-quality central laboratory and biomarker services in the clinical research projects of the customers. The central lab offers services in safety testing including microbiological tests. Moreover, companies have established their central labs in Belgium, Brussels, and Singapore. Thus, increasing regional expansion is also expected to be a strong growth determinant for the industrial microbiology market over the years.
