A laboratory centrifuge is a device utilized in laboratories to separate solution contents based on density through the application of centrifugal force. These systems find application in research laboratories, hospitals, or any facility involved in separating materials from liquid sample preparations.
The primary products within laboratory centrifuges encompass both equipment and accessories. This equipment is employed for the separation of serum or plasma from red blood cells, isolating precipitated solids from the liquid phase in a mixture, and distinguishing liquids with different densities. The models of laboratory centrifuges include benchtop and floor-standing varieties. Various rotor designs, such as fixed-angle, swinging-bucket, vertical, and others, contribute to their versatility. Laboratory centrifuges find applications in diagnostics, microbiology, cellomics, genomics, proteomics, blood component separation, and more. Their users span hospitals, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, as well as academic and research institutions.
Tariffs are influencing the laboratory centrifuge market by increasing costs of imported motors, rotors, electronic controllers, cooling systems, and precision mechanical components. Hospitals and research laboratories in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported high-performance centrifuges, while Asia-Pacific faces cost pressure on equipment exports. These tariffs are raising procurement costs and delaying equipment replacement cycles. At the same time, they are supporting domestic manufacturing, regional assembly, and innovation in cost-optimized centrifuge designs.
The laboratory centrifuge market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides laboratory centrifuge market statistics, including laboratory centrifuge industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a laboratory centrifuge market share, detailed laboratory centrifuge market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the laboratory centrifuge industry. This laboratory centrifuge market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The laboratory centrifuge market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.64 billion in 2025 to $1.74 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in biomedical research activities, expansion of hospital diagnostic testing, increasing use of centrifugation in genomics workflows, availability of advanced laboratory infrastructure, rising clinical sample processing volumes.
The laboratory centrifuge market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.22 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for automated centrifuge systems, expansion of molecular diagnostics, growing adoption of precision medicine, rising investments in life sciences research, increasing focus on laboratory efficiency optimization. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of high-speed centrifugation systems, rising demand for refrigerated and ultracentrifuges, growing integration of digital control interfaces, expansion of compact benchtop centrifuges, enhanced focus on sample integrity.
The rise of infectious diseases is driving the growth of the laboratory centrifuge market. Diseases such as SARS, the Zika virus, Ebola, and COVID-19 have increasingly resulted in infections across various regions, contributing to a heightened global disease burden. It is estimated that zoonotic infectious agents (diseases originating in animals that adapt to infect humans) account for about 60% of known human pathogens and up to 75% of emerging human pathogens. Climate change is expected to significantly alter the epidemiology of infectious diseases by changing the geographic distribution of microbes and vectors. As microbes adapt to higher temperatures, there are growing concerns that global warming will favor the survival of heat-tolerant microbes that can overcome human thermoregulatory defenses, potentially leading to new infectious diseases and altering the epidemiology of existing ones. Laboratory centrifuge systems are utilized for the purification of cells, organelles, viruses, proteins, and nucleic acids. For instance, in August 2024, data published by the UK Health Security Agency, a UK-based executive agency, indicated that there were 368 reported cases of measles in England in 2023, nearly a sevenfold increase from the 53 cases in 2022, with the West Midlands and London representing 44% and 33% of the cases, respectively. Thus, the emergence of infectious diseases drives the demand for lab testing solutions, consequently boosting the laboratory centrifuge market.
Major companies in the laboratory centrifuge market are focusing on advanced products, such as centrifuges with natural refrigerant cooling systems, to enhance performance and reduce environmental impact in high-throughput applications. These centrifuges use environmentally friendly coolants to maintain low sample temperatures while efficiently separating materials, protecting temperature-sensitive specimens. For instance, in March 2025, Thermo Fisher Scientific, a US-based life sciences company, launched its first sustainable large-capacity and superspeed centrifuges equipped with next-generation natural refrigerant cooling systems. The devices support high-speed, high-volume laboratory workflows, providing precise temperature control, improved energy efficiency, and a reduced environmental footprint, enabling laboratories to achieve both operational excellence and sustainability goals.
In November 2023, Gea Canada Inc., a Canadian provider of process technology and equipment, finalized the acquisition of Centrifuges Unlimited Inc. from Appulse Corporation for $0.007 billion. This acquisition enables Gea Canada to strengthen its position in the North American laboratory centrifuge market by operating CUI as an independent unit, thereby more effectively meeting customer needs. Centrifuges Unlimited Inc. is a Canadian company that produces centrifuge equipment utilized in a variety of laboratory and industrial applications.
