Dublin, Aug. 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Continuous Bioprocessing Market Size, Industry Dynamics, Opportunity Analysis and Forecast 2026-2035" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Continuous Bioprocessing Market Projected to Reach USD 2.33 Billion by 2035

The global continuous bioprocessing market is gaining momentum as biopharmaceutical manufacturers prioritize efficient, scalable and reliable production technologies for complex biologics. Valued at USD 319.77 million in 2025, the market is projected to reach USD 2.33 billion by 2035, expanding at a compound annual growth rate of 21.98% from 2026 to 2035.

Market growth is being supported by increasing demand for manufacturing systems that reduce downtime, improve equipment utilization and deliver consistent product quality. Continuous bioprocessing platforms are becoming particularly important in the production of monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, biosimilars, and cell and gene therapies, where high throughput and stringent quality control are essential.

Competitive Landscape and Market Developments

Thermo Fisher Scientific, Sartorius, Danaher, through its Cytiva and Pall businesses, and Merck KGaA, operating as MilliporeSigma in the United States and Canada, hold influential positions in the continuous bioprocessing market. These suppliers provide instruments, consumables and integrated platforms that support implementation and commercial-scale manufacturing.

Strategic partnerships and capacity investments are strengthening the market's development. In December 2025, Transcenta Therapeutics entered a non-exclusive licensing agreement with EirGenix for its highly intensified continuous bioprocessing platform. In July 2025, Asahi Kasei Life Science announced plans to establish a new spinning plant in Japan for Planova virus removal filters. Operations are scheduled to begin in 2030, expanding the supply of filtration products used to support biologics safety and purity.

Continuous Bioprocessing Market Growth Drivers

Rising global demand for biologic medicines is encouraging pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to adopt manufacturing models capable of supporting rapid scale-up without compromising quality. Continuous bioprocessing improves production stability and throughput while helping manufacturers respond more effectively to commercial supply requirements and public health priorities.

The increasing prevalence of cancer, autoimmune disorders and infectious diseases is also supporting demand for monoclonal antibodies and vaccines. At the same time, expanding biosimilar pipelines and advances in cell and gene therapy are creating additional requirements for flexible, precisely controlled biomanufacturing capacity.

Sustainability and Digital Integration Create Opportunities

Sustainability is becoming a strategic priority across biopharmaceutical manufacturing, with 62% of biopharma executives identifying it as their foremost concern. Continuous production can support sustainability goals through more efficient resource utilization, smaller manufacturing footprints and lower material requirements.

Digital integration represents another significant opportunity. Advanced monitoring, automation, data analytics and process control technologies are being incorporated into continuous bioprocessing workflows to improve visibility, strengthen quality assurance and optimize manufacturing performance. These capabilities are expected to accelerate adoption as companies modernize production facilities.

Workforce Skills Remain a Key Market Challenge

A shortage of professionals with specialized continuous manufacturing expertise remains a barrier to implementation. Continuous production lines require technical skills that differ from those commonly used in batch processing. The resulting capability gap can increase execution risk during technology transfer, process validation and commercial scale-up, making workforce development an important priority for market participants.

Continuous Bioprocessing Market Segmentation

Consumables and reagents account for a leading market position because continuous operations depend on filters, tubing, bags, reagents and other single-use components. These products help maintain sterile processing conditions, limit cross-contamination risks and support uninterrupted manufacturing.

Monoclonal antibodies lead the application segment, supported by strong therapeutic demand across oncology, autoimmune disease and infectious disease treatment. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies represent the largest end-use segment due to their need for scalable production, shorter processing times and consistent output.

Regional Market Outlook

North America holds 39% of the global continuous bioprocessing market, supported by advanced biopharmaceutical infrastructure, strong investment activity and regulatory confidence. Sanofi plans to invest USD 20 billion in manufacturing and research and development across the United States through 2030. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved 48 novel drugs in 2024, further reinforcing demand for scalable and dependable biologics manufacturing technologies.

The market is also analyzed across Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, and South America. Asia Pacific is expected to benefit from expanding biomanufacturing capacity, growing biotechnology investment and increasing demand for biologic therapies.
