GMP Testing Service Market

GMP Testing Service Market Research, 2031

The global gmp testing service market size was valued at $1.3 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $2.5 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2022 to 2031.

Good manufacturing practice (GMP) is a system used for ensuring that products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. It is designed to minimize the risks involved in any pharmaceutical production that cannot be eliminated through testing the final product. Its main purpose is to ensure the purity, quality and safety of manufactured products. Enforced by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the World Health Organization (WHO) promotes the most widely leveraged version of GMP regulations. It covers all the aspects of production, from the starting materials, premises and equipment to the training and personal hygiene of staff. Many countries have formulated their requirements for good manufacturing practice based on World Health Organization (WHO) good manufacturing practices. Others have harmonized their requirements, for example in the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN), in the European Union and through the Pharmaceutical Inspection Convention.

Outbreak of COVID-19 has positively impacted on GMP testing service market. The lockdowns have shown both demand-side and supply-side impacts on the manufacturing sector. However, people are learning to live with the virus, and all industries have opened with new guidelines and new restrictions. The market witnessed better growth in 2021 than in 2019.

GMP testing service market growth is driven by the development of biosimilars, combination products, and other innovative medicines that increased the demand for specific testing procedures. Furthermore, several biopharmaceutical companies are using bioanalytical testing outsourcing service for drug development and validation of assays at both clinical and preclinical stages and generic & branded drug compounds are mostly small molecules. Generic manufacturers have to conduct and submit bioanalytical testing results due to increase in patent expiration. This in turn, drives the market growth. However, the precise requirement of the regulatory framework concerning GMP outsourced activities are projected to hinder the market growth. In contrast, adoption of GMP testing service in R&D are some of the factors expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the GMP testing service market.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) was discovered in late December in Hubei province of Wuhan city in China. The situation of COVID-19 has varied outcome when related to vaccinations.

In addition, the bioanalytical service segment is expected to hold higher market share during the forecast period owing to rise in focus on development of bioanalytical testing service that is the vital factor that drives the growth of the market.

End User Segment Review

By end user, the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies acquired the largest share in 2021, and is expected to remain dominant throughout the forecast period. This is attributed to the increase in innovation and new service development. Moreover, the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies segment is expected to exhibit fastest market growth during the forecast period, owing to the biopharmaceutical companies preference to outsource manufacturing in markets where they have limited expertise in various stages of value chain, especially toward the end where CDMOs presence in a particular region that gives them access to a vast distribution network as well as knowledge of existing regulatory guidelines.

Region Segment Review

North America accounted for the largest GMP testing service market share in 2021, and is expected to remain dominant throughout the forecast period. This was attributed to the presence of giant biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical firms in the countries such as the U.S. In addition, increase in frequency of major pharmaceutical companies and their R&D activities drive the demand for GMP testing in the region during the forecast period. However, Asia-Pacific is projected to exhibit fastest growth rate of 9.0% during the GMP testing service market forecast. This is mainly attributed to increase in the import and sale of medicines by large number of key players that have been manufactured according to internationally recognized GMP standards. Moreover, the biopharmaceutical sector has opened new approaches and collaborations in the industry to respond to the urgent needs of the pandemic which is projected to boost the market growth.
