Bioprocess Bags Market Analysis

Bioprocess bags are therefore flexible, one-use primarily for sterile storage and carriage of liquids and media in biopharmaceutical processes. These bags are made out of high-grade polymer films and come across in upstream scheme, downstream scheme, and formulation end scheme. Their use eliminates chances of contamination, eases workflow, and is scalable which makes them suitable for biologics, vaccines, and cell therapies. Bioprocess bags incorporate today’s single-use system technology that improves effectiveness and regulatory processes in critical industries.

To expand the bioprocess bags sector, industries have concentrated on enhancing the quality of materials to obtain an ideal bioprocess bag that has high-strength and low-leachate films. They also continue launching new products within their product lines with an increasing level of complexity for specific application markets such as biologics and gene therapy. The use of automation-compatible designs compatible design, recyclable bioprocess bags, and sustainable solutions in the respective industry are also boosting demand. Further increasing CMO/CRO partnerships and increasing company outlets in the developing markets also enhance growth opportunities.

On April 24, 2023 – Merck, a leading science and technology company, announced the launch of its Ultimus® Single-Use Process Container Film, designed to provide extreme durability and leak resistance for single-use assemblies used for bioprocessing liquid applications.

On August 17, 2023, Sartorius and Repligen Corporation announced the launch of an integrated bioreactor system that incorporates Repligen XCell® ATF upstream intensification technology into Sartorius’ Biostat STR® bioreactor, simplifying intensified seed train and N perfusion implementation for biopharmaceutical manufacturers.
