The technological advancements in cleanroom technology along with the increasing demand for cleanroom technologies in developing economies are expected to offer significant opportunities for market growth in the coming years. However, the technical limitations associated with their operational costs and technical challenges associated with the customization of cleanroom designs in developing economies are hindering the growth of this market to a certain extent. 

The biotechnology industry is one of the major contributors to the growth of the global life science industry. In the past few years, the healthcare industry has seen the emergence of several biologic molecules. Moreover, new drug development research is highly focused on biological products. Over the last decade, over 200 biologics have been approved by the US FDA. 

The faster approval of new drugs drives the demand for cleanrooms for their manufacturing. Also, since many of the biologics are pathogenic, it is essential to maintain aseptic conditions during their manufacturing. Thus, cleanrooms form an essential component in the manufacturing of biologics.

The use and maintenance of a cleanroom is a complex process. Usually, the cost of construction of standard cleanrooms for pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing may range between USD 100 to more than USD 1,000 per square foot. Also, the price per square foot is not the same for ISO 6 and ISO 8 cleanrooms. 

Cleanrooms are mostly designed according to customer requirements based on product specifications and customer-specific design requirements. However, there are no specific guidelines for cleanroom designs for different application areas or product types. This leads to several challenges for cleanroom manufacturers, as they need to follow different designs every time. 

Based on product, the market is segmented into consumables, equipment, and controls. The consumables segment accounted for the larger market share in 2020. The high and growing number of pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies facilitating the use of disposable protective clothing has resulted in the increased adoption of the consumables in the market. 

Based on construction type, the cleanroom technologies market is segmented into standard/drywall cleanrooms, hardwall cleanrooms, softwall cleanrooms, and pass-through cabinets. The hardwall cleanrooms segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period.  

Furthermore, regulations do not provide requirements regarding the environmental, product, or facility parameters that are to be controlled. Instead, they only provide standards that a company needs to meet after it decides to manufacture a product using a cleanroom environment.

The consumables segment  accounted for the largest share of the cleanroom technologies market in 2020

Based on product, the market is segmented into consumables, equipment, and controls. The consumables segment accounted for the larger market share in 2020. The high and growing number of pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies facilitating the use of disposable protective clothing has resulted in the increased adoption of the consumables in the market. Also, the large number of R&D activities in the healthcare industry is resulting in a stable demand for cleanroom consumables among end users.

The hardwall cleanrooms segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Based on construction type, the cleanroom technologies market is segmented into standard/drywall cleanrooms, hardwall cleanrooms, softwall cleanrooms, and pass-through cabinets. The hardwall cleanrooms segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the higher demand for hardwall cleanrooms, as they are more design-flexible than standard and softwall cleanrooms, quick and easy to install, freestanding for easy portability, and easy to expand or reconfigure.

The pharmaceutical industry end-user segment accounted for the largest share of the cleanroom technologies market in 2020

The pharmaceutical industry end-user segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2019. This is attributed to the industrial growth in this sector, the robust pipeline of injectable formulations, and rising focus on ensuring the quality of healthcare products.

North America accounted for the largest share of the cleanroom technologies market in 2020

The market in the North America accounted for the largest share in 2020. Factors such as stringent regulatory standards for product approvals; technological advancements in cleanrooms; large number of hospitals in the region; greater adoption of technologically advanced solutions by pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device manufacturing companies; and growth of the healthcare sector are expected to contribute to the growth of the market in North America in the coming years.
