Europe is one of the major markets for cell culture media. The region faced major supply chain challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. Key players are now adopting strategies to address and minimize future challenges. For instance, in December 2021, Fujifilm Irvine Scientific, Inc. announced the beginning of operations at its Tilburg, Netherlands cell culture media manufacturing facility.

The facility manufactures both dry and liquid media, which is projected to increase competition for existing players in the market, due to increased local availability of cell culture media. Major players in the market include Promo Cell, Merck KGaA , Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Sartorius AG.

Furthermore, increased regulatory support by the government for biologics & vaccines to meet the growing demand is projected to fuel the cell culture media market growth. The European market is extremely complex owing to presence of multiple countries under the EU umbrella. These nations implement different regulations, which make meeting quality standards in each country challenging and may also limit market growth in the region.
