MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS

The Growth in Technological Advancements

With huge advancements in the technology sector, the biosafety cabinet market is also being integrated with technologies that can help detect any leakages or failures of any part of the cabinets. Over the past years, there have been huge developments in the technological integration with these biosafety cabinets. Technological developments such as HEPA filtration systems can filter out 99.9% of the contaminants in the air. These systems have also been integrated with IOT, such as automotive systems shut down and alarm systems that will raise alarms if these systems observe any malfunction or failure of the exhaust systems.

Increased Risk of Communal Diseases

The world has recently witnessed the catastrophe that communicable diseases can cause through the Covid-19 virus. A disease that can be spread from one person to another through various ways, including contact with another person’s blood and bodily fluids or breathing in airborne viruses, and being bitten by an insect carrying the pathogen or virus is called a communicable or infectious disease. These diseases can have a variety of severity ranging from asymptomatic (no symptoms) to severe to fatal. Some examples of communicable diseases are HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, measles, salmonella, and blood-borne diseases. The biosafety cabinets are used in laboratories to study the organisms that transmit such diseases and could be the cause of the spread of communal diseases. Since these pathogens are infectious and can easily spread, utmost care must be taken to handle them. Hence biosafety cabinets are a must in such cases. These cabinets also allow the researchers to analyze the functioning and the process of infection that these organisms inflict.

Development in Biological Testing

The world is currently moving towards modernization and an advanced technological era. These advancements in technology have allowed chemical, biological, and microbiological testing. Further, these tests are conducted to understand and conduct analysis or research on the parameters of a product/subject. The subject in biological testing can be a human, dead or alive, animals and birds. Growing importance is given to biological testing as it is crucial in the early and timely diagnostics of infectious diseases and helps properly manage patients. Biological testing is carried out with substances that can harm the environment and humans, which can also potentially cause infections among them. Hence, such reasons are driving the growth of biological testing facilities across the globe, which will positively impact the biosafety cabinet market as they would be an integral part of the laboratories handling such samples.

SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS

INSIGHTS BY PRODUCT TYPE

The biosafety cabinets or biological safety cabinets are of three major types Class I, II, III. They are assigned to various classes based on the level of safety and protection offered and the level of biosafety measures it can operate. Class II is further sub-segmented into five subcategories. The sub-segments have advanced features such as HEPA filtration systems; they regulate airflow pressure and are safer than class I biosafety cabinets. Class II held most of the global biosafety cabinet market share as they are versatile and used across most facilities.

Segmentation by Product Type

INSIGHTS BY DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL

The global biosafety cabinet market by distribution channels segments as online and offline. The offline method is one of the oldest techniques that are in existence that is utilized to get a company’s products to their potential customer. In 2022, the offline distribution channel had the highest global biosafety cabinet market share. Factors such as broader reach in areas that lack better connectivity and high consumer trust associated with touching and experiencing the quality of products are driving the growth of this segment. Further, the online distribution channel allows manufacturers and vendors to have multichannel campaigns across various channels, such as third-party retailers and direct websites. Online shopping entails online buying, mobile ordering, and digital media. High penetration rates of connectivity are expected to grow the online multichannel platforms' visibility during the forecasted period, thus increasing the online presence of the vendors.

Segmentation by Distribution Channel

• Offline
• Online
