With
growing prevalence of infectious and chronic disorders, the demand for
biological products and pharmaceuticals is expanding at a rapid rate. However, preservation,
storage, and distribution of biological components and temperature sensitive
products require thermal insulation to maintain their efficacy and prevent
product degradation. Technologically advanced biomedical refrigerators and
freezers fulfil the requirement of preserving biomedical materials such as
materials, blood cells, vaccines, enzymes, DNA, etc. These specialized cold
storage units ensure the integrity of biological products since they provide
temperature stability and restore temperature quickly in case of excursion. Rising
prevalence of chronic disorders and infectious diseases are fuelling the demand
for blood transfusions, DNA-based medications, and other biological products,
which in turn, are contributing to the global biomedical refrigerators and
freezers market growth.
Plasma
Freezers to Dominate the Global Biomedical Refrigerators & Freezers Market
In
2021, the plasma freezers accounted for 28.35% of the global biomedical
refrigerators and freezers market. The segment is expected to register the
highest growth during the forecast period, owing to increasing demand for safe
storage of fresh frozen plasma, platelet concentrates, and red blood cells. As
the coronavirus cases remain prevalent, the demand for storing viral specimens,
extracted RNA and cDNA is growing for future research and development
activities, which is leading to increased adoption of biomedical refrigerators
and freezers. Besides, manufacturers are focusing on R&D investment and
introducing plasma freezers to expand their product portfolio and penetrate the
global market.
R&D
Initiatives Lead to Greater Adoption of Biomedical Refrigerators & Freezers
As
life sciences companies continue to invest and advance their innovative
therapeutics and vaccines for a wide range of disorders, the clinical trial
activities are significantly increasing. Growing trend of precision medicine
and targeted therapies coupled with steep rise in infectious disorders are also
creating increased need for more R&D initiatives by academic and research
institutes. This has led to more demand for preserving biomedical samples,
resulting in rise in demand for biomedical refrigerators and freezers. In
addition, market players are making huge investments to enhance the efficiency
of biomedical refrigerators and freezers to meet the evolving demands of end
users, which is expected to boost the global biomedical refrigerators and
freezers market growth.
Technological
Advancements Leading to Expanded Product Portfolio
Rapid
advancements in technology coupled with the availability of improved compressor
system, circulation system, and auto cascade cooling systems, which has
resulted into enhanced protection and efficiency in biomedical refrigerators
and freezers. Government support for the development of innovative products and
regulations to safeguard the storage of blood and blood components are expected
to fuel the market growth. Enhanced focus on sustainability has led to an
increased demand for biomedical refrigerators and freezers that are
energy-efficient and reliable. Digital display, long-lasting battery backup,
power failure alarms, and decreased noise levels are some of the newest
features in advanced biomedical refrigerators and freezers. More such
developments and innovations are expected to propel the biomedical
refrigerators and freezers market in the coming years.
