The global automated sample storage systems market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 10.1% during the forecast period (2023-2030).Automated sample storage systems are essential for preserving the integrity of a sample, preventing contamination, and maintaining the sample's chemical & physical properties. The growing adoption of versatile automation solutions with the improving compact and accessible system is the key factor supporting the growth of the market globally.A new class of compact and accessible automated pipettors that opens up affordable opportunities for many laboratories to streamline and automate their everyday manual or semi-manual pipetting processes across a wide variety of applications. Hence, the market players are also focusing on introducing automated liquid handling platform solutions that further bolster the market growth. For instance, in February 2022, SPT Labtech, in lab automation, launched apricot DC1, a 4-in-1 automated liquid handling platform to handle large volumes of samples. Incorporating unique dual-core pipetting technology, the apricot DC1 integrates four separate pipetting tools within a single benchtop unit to allow for high-volume and low-volume, single and multichannel pipetting.
Segmental Outlook The global automated sample storage systems market is segmented on the product, sample type, and end-users. Based on the product, the market is sub-segmented into automated compound storage systems, system units, and reagents & consumables. Based on the sample type, the market is sub-segmented into biological samples and compound samples. Further, based on the end-users, the market is sub-segmented into pharmaceutical & biotech companies, academic & research institutions, diagnostic labs, and others. Among the sample types, the biological samples sub-segment is anticipated to hold a considerable share of the market owing to the growing development of automated sample preparation for biological samples that enhances laboratory productivity by minimizing resource allocation for repetitive tasks such as sample weighing, extraction, filtration, dilution, and transfer to analysis devices.
Pharmaceutical & Biotech Companies Sub-Segment is Anticipated to Hold a Considerable Share of the Market
Among the end-users, the pharmaceutical & biotech companies sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share of the global automated sample storage systems market. The segmental growth is attributed to the growing influence of automation facilitates the efficiency of laboratory equipment for processes.Such as sample handling & storage, verifications, and labelling tubes and lower the physical strain of manual processes. Demand for the automated sample storage systems are more for clinical research purposes. These systems are designed to overcome several problems in sample collection and storage. It stores a variety of labwares, including a wide variety of micro tubes, cryoviles, and blood tubes, some systems can store more than 10 million samples. For instance, in June 2022, UK Robotics launched two liquid handlers to accelerate lab automation in healthcare. It is essential that both the dispensing and fluid volume control are extremely accurate before the experiment.
Regional OutlookThe global automated sample storage systems market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). Among these, North America is anticipated to hold a prominent share of the market, owing to the presence of a large number of market players coupled with the supportive government legislation and high demand for laboratory automation.
The Asia-Pacific Region is Expected to Grow at a Significant CAGR in the Global Automated Sample Storage Systems Market
Among all regions, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR over the forecast period. Regional growth is attributed to the increasing demand for high-quality biological samples for various research purposes, such as genomics, proteomics, drug discovery, and personalized medicine. Owing to such factors, the region has witnessed an increase in requirement for efficient automated sample storage systems.
In addition, the rising R&D activities has further created a significant demand for this system to store biological specimens. Biological samples such as cells, tissues, and DNA need to be stored under controlled conditions to maintain their viability and integrity over time. These tools offer necessary environmental controls to ensure long-term preservation. For instance, in June 2020, AutoGen Inc. launched the vortex module upgrade to their portfolio of FlexSTAR workflows. FlexSTAR workflows are fully automated instruments for isolating genomic DNA from large volumes of whole blood, buffy coats, saliva, cultured cells, and other samples.
A higher demand for automation-based liquid handling systems to speed up the process and reduce the possibility of cross-contamination. Furthermore, the increasing number of biobanks, as well as contract research organizations, offer growth opportunities to the market. The high installation and maintenance expenses works is one of the major factors most likely to hamper for the growth of the automated sample storage systems market. The key market players include Daifuku Co., Ltd., International Labmate Ltd., Shanghai Calin Logistics Equipment Co., Ltd., Tsubakimoto Chain Co. and others.
Market Players OutlookThe major companies serving the global automated sample storage systems market include Azenta Life Sciences, Becton, Dickinson and Company, Danaher Corp., Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Tsubakimoto Chain Co., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in January 2020, Eli Lilly and Company collaborated with Strateos, Inc. to launch remote-controlled automated lab. Strateos utilize its automated platform to enable the access of this remote-controlled lab to other drug discovery companies and research scientists through its secure automated-based platform as part of the collaboration.
