Global Depth Filtration Market Analysis 2017 and Forecasts 2018-2022 - A $2.96 Billion Market Opportunity - Research and Markets

The "Depth Filtration Market by Media Type (Diatomaceous Earth, Activated Carbon, Cellulose), Product (Filter Cartridge, Capsule Filter), Application (Final Product Processing (Small Molecules, Biologics), Cell clarification) - Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The global depth filtration market is projected to reach US$2.96 billion by 2022 from US$1.70 billion in 2017, at a CAGR of 11.7% from 2017 to 2022.

The increasing demand for biopharmaceuticals and increasing R&D expenditure in the biopharmaceutical industry are the major factors driving the growth of the global depth filtration market.

Developing markets in the Asia-Pacific region such as Japan, China, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, and Singapore are lucrative markets for depth filtration. Growing per capita income, increased investments in the healthcare industry by key market players, and increased outsourcing services by various pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies from these countries are the major factors driving the growth of the depth filtration market in this region.

The cartridge filters segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the depth filtration market in 2017, whereas the capsule filters segment is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The large share of the cartridge filters segment can be attributed to their high dirt-holding capacity and long service life, which ultimately helps the reduction of labor costs by decreasing the filter change-out frequency.

Acquisitions was the dominant strategy adopted by key industry participants to increase their market share in the depth filtration market.

The depth filtration market is dominated by established players such as Merck KGaA (Germany), Pall Corporation (U.S.), Sartorius Stedim Biotech S.A. (France), 3M Company (U.S.), and Eaton Corporation (Ireland).
