MARKET GROWTH FACTORS
Technological Advancements in Single‑Use Systems
The rapid evolution of single‑use technologies is central to market expansion. Innovations like multi-layer films, gamma-stable fluoropolymers, and barrier enhancements support sterile, scalable bioprocessing and reduce cross-contamination risk. These breakthroughs align with growth in vaccine and biologic production, as single-use systems enable faster development timelines - IMARC reports a related market size of USD 16.1 billion in 2023, projected to reach USD 64.5 billion by 2032 at a 16.2% CAGR.
Regulatory Momentum & Personalized Medicine
Regulatory bodies globally encourage adoption of disposable systems for flexibility and contamination control - key for personalized medicine and cell/gene therapies requiring small-batch, sterile production. The increasing number of biomarker-driven personalized therapies (132 identified by PMC) further fuels demand for adaptable bioprocess consumables. These developments prompt higher investment in single-use bags, particularly within specialized manufacturing settings.
Biopharma Growth and Infrastructure Spending
With biopharmaceutical pipelines expanding—bolstered by aging populations and chronic disease prevalence—biomanufacturing investments are climbing. Companies are scaling up infrastructure for biologics, monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, and cell therapies. As firms invest in high-throughput facilities, the need for disposable bags escalates. IMARC attributes this as a key driver for the global market reaching USD 4 billion in 2024 and projecting USD 14.4 billion by 2033.
