Top 10 Clinical Lab Equipment Companies - 2022
The year-over-year rise in clinical laboratory tests and R&D activities is a massive propellant for the laboratory equipment market. The global laboratory equipment market is estimated to grow by 9.2 percent CAGR, and with such exponential growth in clinical research activities and scientific and technological advancement, it comes as no surprise that there has been a significant surge in new and innovative laboratory products.
However, organizations face many hurdles in implementing these new changes as most laboratory equipment setups are associated with high costs. In addition, the proctoring and monitoring of equipment need to be undertaken with great diligence, as laboratory equipment is fragile and easily breakable. In response, many equipment manufacturers are reimagining their processes to create more user-friendly, durable, and reliable equipment that can fit well into today’s laboratory settings.
In doing so, laboratory medicine is gradually gearing toward testing at point-of-care and integrating point-of-care testing into patient management strategies and care pathways. This has also led to increased collaboration between laboratory instrument manufacturers and the pharmaceutical industry to lead to the development of new and innovative laboratory equipment and applications. They are paving the way for implementing single-use technology, such as disposable pipette tips and laboratory consumables, to increase efficiency in laboratory operations. In addition, manufacturers are also leveraging the power of automation, robotics, IoT, cloud computing, and AI to improve laboratory operations and create cost-efficient environments.
Aligning with these industry changes, the future of laboratories will be more geared toward quality control, reducing laboratory errors, eliminating unnecessary testing, and focusing on resolving the challenges of global harmonization.
The laboratory equipment market is at a tipping point and is constantly evolving to deliver new and state-of-the-art technologies to users. It has become extremely crucial for laboratories to align with global trends to ultimately gain efficiency and accuracy in their operations.
