The global single-use bioreactors market size was estimated at USD 4.58 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 18.65 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 17.12% from 2025 to 2033. Single-use systems are emerging as an important technology for pharmaceutical and mammalian cell culture applications.
They are particularly well-suited for biopharmaceutical production, where prevailing market trends call for quick, easy, and flexible deployment. In addition, with comprehensive qualification and validation procedures, the use of single-use bioreactors lowers the possibility of cross-contamination and improves process safety in highly potent biopharmaceutical compounds. These factors are anticipated to drive the market growth.
In addition, some of the manufacturers are using bioreactors to culture suitable host cells for the coronavirus, in order to study the viral pathogenesis in humans. Moreover, in the past few months, the single-use bioreactor manufacturers have undertaken numerous collaborative initiatives to develop biologics/vaccines as potential therapeutics against the COVID-19. For instance, ABEC has focused on customizing the process services and solutions throughout the manufacturing and development of the entire range of biopharmaceutical products, with the aid of its single-use solutions.
The range of stainless-steel bioreactors and associated high capital costs have become a challenge due to the changing demand for biopharmaceuticals. SUBs' versatility to meet the rising demand for biopharmaceuticals has enabled them to successfully address the issues related to traditional bioreactors. Flexibility offered by single-use bioreactors is one of the main encouraging factors for investing in technology that further drives the growth of the single-use bioreactors industry.
Additionally, it is projected that in the upcoming years, the use of disposable bioreactors will pick up steam due to the increased demand for biopharmaceuticals across the globe. Small-scale, bench-top SUBs reduce the requirement for assembling, cleaning, and autoclaving, which leads to quicker turnaround times. The advantages offered by SUBs motivate their use for the manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals.
