The global laboratory gas generators market size is anticipated to reach USD 777.4 million by 2030 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 8.3% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth of the market is attributed to the growing importance of analytical techniques in drug and food safety testing, growing safety concerns related to the use of conventional gas cylinders, and increasing R&D spending in the life science sector.
Laboratory gas generators operate across diverse applications, including chromatography and mass spectrometry, wherein they provide high-purity gas essential for accurately identifying various substances within samples, contributing to drug development and quality control. Further in drug detection and analysis, gas supplied from generators ensures efficient and accurate analysis of drug composition, purity, and potential contaminants.
In pharmaceutical packaging, nitrogen gas generators create an inert environment, shielding products from oxidation and degradation during transport and storage, ultimately preserving their integrity and efficacy. However, their role goes beyond mere protection. The nitrogen blanketing facilitated by generators also helps improve the quality of pharmaceutical products. Oxygen exposure can degrade various medications, affecting their potency and shelf life. By creating an oxygen-free environment, generators maintain product quality and extend their usable window.
The laboratory gas generators industry is characterized by intense competition, with numerous manufacturers and suppliers vying for market share. Some of the key players operating in the market include Peak Scientific Instruments, PerkinElmer Inc., Linde plc., VICI DBS, Dürr Technik GmbH & Co. KG, Erre Due S.p.a., and CLAIND srl. Companies are focusing on product innovation, technological advancements, and strategic collaborations to differentiate their offerings and gain a competitive edge. In addition, the growing trend towards customization and modularization in gas generation systems allows end-users to tailor solutions to their specific requirements, further driving market growth and adoption.
