Pipettes and accessories encompass a range of laboratory tools and supplementary items designed for the precise measurement, transfer, and handling of liquid samples. Pipettes are devices crucial for drawing up and dispensing specific volumes of liquid, essential for experiments in biological, chemical, and medical research. Accessories are supplementary tools that enhance the functionality and accuracy of pipettes.
The main types of pipettes and accessories include manual pipettes, electronic pipettes, and various accessories. Manual pipettes are handheld laboratory instruments used for precise measurement and transfer of liquid volumes without electronic components. They are available in single-channel and multi-channel configurations and are utilized in hospitals, academic and research institutes, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, and other settings.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The pipettes and accessories market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides pipettes and accessories market statistics, including the pipettes and accessories industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with pipettes and accessories market share, detailed pipettes and accessories market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the pipettes and accessories industry. These pipettes and accessories market research reports deliver a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The pipettes and accessories market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.42 billion in 2024 to $1.48 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased demand for precise laboratory instruments, growth in pharmaceutical research, rise in prevalence of chronic diseases, increased need for high-throughput screening, increased demand for precise liquid handling, increased funding for life sciences, and expansion of clinical and diagnostic labs.
The pipettes and accessories market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.77 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for precision in laboratory research, growing clinical diagnostics, rising focus on environmental testing, expanding biopharmaceutical R&D, growing investment in life sciences, and rising demand for personalized medicine. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for automated liquid handling systems, advancements in ergonomic designs, rising adoption of electronic pipettes, expanding use of multi-channel pipettes in high-throughput screening, development of eco-friendly and recyclable pipette tips, and integration of IoT and AI for enhanced laboratory efficiency.
The forecast of 4.5% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.5% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply delays for precision glass capillaries and electronic volume adjustment mechanisms, heavily reliant on imports from Germany and Japan, disrupting research laboratory workflows.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The growth of pharmaceutical companies is expected to drive the expansion of the pipette and accessories market in the coming years. The pharmaceutical industry focuses on researching, developing, manufacturing, and selling medications used for medical treatment or therapy. This sector is expanding due to the rising incidence of chronic diseases, advancements in research and technology, and healthcare reforms that result in increased healthcare spending. Pipettes and accessories are essential tools for accurately measuring and transferring liquids, playing a crucial role in pharmaceutical processes such as drug formulation, sample preparation, and analytical testing. For example, in July 2024, GOV.UK reported that the value of UK pharmaceutical exports had rebounded, showing significantly higher values in 2022 and 2023 compared to 2021. Thus, the growth of pharmaceutical companies is fueling the expansion of the pipette and accessories market.
Key players in the pipettes and accessories market are focusing on developing innovative products with advanced technologies, including Bluetooth connectivity, to streamline workflows and improve data management capabilities. Bluetooth connectivity technology enables electronic pipettes to seamlessly integrate with laboratory software and systems, facilitating efficient data transfer, real-time data sharing, and streamlined workflows. For instance, Sartorius AG launched the Picus 2 electronic pipettes in September 2023, equipped with Bluetooth connectivity for connectivity to the Sartorius Pipetting mobile app and other systems. These pipettes offer features such as customizable programs, safety measures, and easy cleaning, designed for effortless pipetting and enhanced user experience.
