The global cell cryopreservation market size is expected to reach USD 35.03 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 21.01%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.. The increased use of ready-to-freeze media, combined with rising infertility rates, is driving demand for these products. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, as well as the increasing importance of cell therapy for disease management, have prompted the demand for effective cryopreservation.
The increased demand for cost-effective cryopreservation medium has stemmed from increased research & development (R&D) activities to create advanced medicines. The capacity of ready-to-use media to decrease the development of ice crystals while cryopreserving live cells led to its increasing adoption among the research community. Furthermore, the rising popularity of cell-based drugs has resulted in massive investments from manufacturers to develop sophisticated biopharmaceuticals for serious medical conditions, which will propel the demand for cryopreservation and further boost the market growth.
The rapid R&D for the COVID-19 vaccine, as well as its continued commercial manufacturing activities, have also significantly impacted and stimulated biologics-based research activities, resulting in increased market growth. Furthermore, the growing market demand, increased competition among competitors, and diverse applications by end-users have all contributed to developments in cryopreservation freezing media formulations, which are now even accessible on a custom basis. For example, Merck KGaA's Sigma Aldrich brand provides frozen media solutions for stem cell applications while ensuring optimal recovery and cell survival, thus, propelling the cryopreservation market growth.
The versatility, ready-to-use, and inexpensive cost of these media over traditional freezing processes have resulted in widespread adoption among end-users. Traditional freezing processes necessitate the use of liquid nitrogen, which has significant safety concerns. Other disadvantages of nitrogen use include the potential of cross-contamination, high operating costs, and the risk of asphyxiation due to the displacement of atmospheric oxygen. As a result, the use of ready-to-use freezing media has grown in recent years which further boosts the cryopreservation market.
Additionally, developments in freezing media formulation and cryopreservation techniques, as well as leveraging cryopreservation freezing media applications in fields such as tissue engineering, cellular treatment, and stem cell research, have driven the market at a substantial rate. Favorable government regulations for regenerative medicine & cell-based research are expected to further boost the global market.
