Global Lab Consumables and Supplies Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029
Laboratory consumables refer to products that are used in the laboratory and are only intended to be used, discarded and replaced (i.e., disposable) or disposed of as usual. The range of laboratory consumables is very wide, including glassware, disposable products, safety gear, gas, reagents and media and other products. Laboratory supplies are used for controlled and precise testing, research and experimentation in the laboratory, and generally can be used multiple times. These include laboratory utensils, laboratory trays and laboratory trays for transporting, storing and preserving materials in the laboratory. Laboratory supplies are used to accurately and efficiently measure, mix, sort, process, distribute and analyse laboratory materials.

Influence of COVID-19 Outbreak on Lab Consumables and Supplies Industry Development
COVID-19 prompts a surge in demand
The recent outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic has caused a sudden surge in global demand for laboratory supplies, causing severe shortages. Under the influence of the epidemic, clinical laboratories have experienced major technological advances. With the in-depth research and development in the field of disease pathogenesis and personalized medicine, advanced diagnostic methods and tests are being widely implemented. Improvements in instrument technology continue to bring real benefits. These benefits come from easier use, greater capacity, faster analysis, higher accuracy, higher operational efficiency, higher reliability, higher security, and many other intangible assets. It is the advancement of laboratory technology that has also driven the progress of the consumables and supplies market. Many affected countries are facing the problem of reducing the supply of chemical components and basic drug swabs needed to collect patient samples. In order to fill this gap in supply and demand, the company will focus on possible capacity expansion and play a role in the fight against global pandemics. The Dutch diagnostic manufacturer Quiagen plans to expand the production of RNA testing reagents for certain COVID-19 diagnosis to support more than 10 million coronavirus tests per month by the end of June. The company hopes to provide chemical reagents for more than 20 million tests per month through its production bases in the United States and Europe by the end of this year. Novacyt has partnered with GSK, AstraZeneca and the University of Cambridge to establish a new testing laboratory as part of the British government's five-pillar plan for COVID-19 testing. The laboratory is used to screen coronavirus tests and analyze alternative chemical reagents used in the test kits to alleviate supply shortages. In addition, the government is also relaxing regulations and guidance to increase the number of patients undergoing daily inspections to prevent the further spread of the disease. For example, on February 28, the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the EUA (Emergency Use Authorization) process to highly complex CLIA laboratories to meet the increasing demand for clinical testing. Due to commercial laboratories It is also involved in testing and pursuing emergency uses according to these guidelines, so the country’s demand for laboratory supplies continues to grow.
