Rapid Test Kit Market to Grow at a Steady CAGR of 8.14% During the Forecast Period
Increasing prevalence of diseases to drive the growth of
global rapid test kit market in the forecast period, 2022-2026.
According to TechSci Research report, “Rapid
Test Kit Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition, Opportunity
and Forecast, 2016-2026” the
global rapid test kit market stood at USD23.44 Billion in 2020 and is expected
to grow at a steady CAGR of 8.14% during the forecast period on account of
growing prevalence of diseases. The growing demand for rapid test kit from
various point of care diagnostic centers, homecare, among others is expected to
support the market growth through 2026. The growing prevalence of various
chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases has
significantly increased the patient pool suffering from these diseases
worldwide. This in turn has significantly increased the demand for various
rapid test kits.
These rapid test kits can be used for disease diagnosis and monitoring
at home and at various healthcare facilities such as hospitals & clinics,
point of care centers, etc. However, the high cost of rapid testing kits leads
to affordability constraints, especially in Asia Pacific, South America and
Middle East & Africa. Also, poor reimbursement scenario related to rapid
test kits across different countries, especially in the developing and
under-developed countries, is further expected to restrict and slow down the
market growth. Also, stringent regulatory scenario and policies for launching
and marketing rapid test kits are expected to significantly hamper the market
growth.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is very strict when it
comes to classifying diagnostic kits and medical devices in various categories
and giving approvals for them. Also, countries that do not follow FDA but have
their own regulatory associations are also very strict for product approvals
and their market launch. The regulatory framework is quite strict when it comes
to product recalls. Furthermore, lack of awareness pertaining to the
availability and use of rapid test kits among the population, especially in the
developing and under-developed countries, is expected to hamper the market
growth during the forecast period.

The global rapid test kit market is segmented based on type, product
type, technology, duration, application, end user, company and regional
distribution. In terms of product type, the market can be divided into
over-the-counter rapid test kit and professional rapid test kit. The
over-the-counter rapid test kit segment dominated the market in 2020 with a
share of around 69.35% on account of the fact that these tests are easy to use
in the “near-patient setting” and are a cost-effective alternative to expensive
laboratory testing. In terms of technology, the market can be categorized into
lateral flow assays, solid phase, agglutination and immunospot assay.
The lateral flow assays technology is expected to dominate the market
during the forecast period as it is simple to perform and has low manufacturing
costs. Lateral flow assays are used across hospitals & clinics, diagnostic
centers, and ambulatory care centers for qualitative and quantitative
identification of specific antigens, antibodies, and gene amplification
products. Also, the use of lateral flow assays in the early detection of COVID-19
has further opened opportunities for growth of this segment. This has got the
focus of various companies in developing rapid test kits based on lateral flow
assay technology. For instance, in March 2020, Ozo Life announced the launch of
its OZO COVID-19 Rapid Test Kits based on lateral flow assay technology.

“The Asia Pacific
region will register the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. This can be
attributed to the large and growing geriatric population in the region, which
is susceptible to different kinds of diseases, especially in countries like
China, India, and Japan. Additionally, supportive government policies and
healthcare schemes launched by them across different countries in the region is
expected to support market growth. For instance, in October 2020, Japan’s
Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved the use of Quick Navi-Flu2, a
rapid diagnostic kit for detecting influenza virus antigen in the country. This
kit is being manufactured by two Japanese firms Denka Company Limited and
Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.,” said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director with
TechSci Research, a research based Global management consulting firm.
