Segment Analysis
By Product:
General lab equipment’s 32% market presence in 2023 is from its unavoidable utility in everyday research and diagnostic practices. Very much still an essential tool across many various domains in both life sciences and chemical research are apparatus like centrifuges, spectrophotometers, shakers, and mixers. A growing number of academic research facilities and diagnostic centers globally continues to fuel demand for this versatile equipment.
On the contrary, molecular spectroscopy instruments are the fastest-growing product category. Spectroscopic techniques are rapidly gaining acceptance since they are precise, obtain information in real time, have minimal sample preparation requirements, and are utilized in environmental monitoring, proteomics studies, and drug quality control.
By End-Use:
The healthcare sector emerged as the leading end-user, holding a dominant revenue share of 42% in 2023. This dominance stems from the widespread integration of laboratory equipment in clinical diagnostics, pathology labs, and hospital-based laboratories. A growing aging population and rising demand for early disease detection further support this trend.
Meanwhile, the biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies segment is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period. The need for high-throughput screening, drug formulation, and stability testing is pushing these industries to invest heavily in modern laboratory infrastructure, including robotic sample handlers and automated liquid handling systems.
