Furthermore, advancements in single-use technologies, stricter regulatory requirements, and rising investments in biologics manufacturing accelerate market expansion.
Growth of the biopharmaceutical industry
The growth of the biopharmaceutical industry is a major driver of the market. As the demand for complex biologics such as monoclonal antibodies, cell and gene therapies, and mRNA vaccines increases, manufacturers are under pressure to ensure contamination-free, sterile production environments. These high-value biologics are extremely sensitive to microbial contamination, making sterile fluid transfer a critical requirement. Aseptic connectors and welders enable secure, closed-system processing that ensures product integrity while meeting strict regulatory standards. The shift from stainless steel equipment to single-use systems (SUS) has also accelerated the need for reliable aseptic connection technologies that can support flexible and scalable production setups.
Moreover, the rapid advancement of cell and gene therapies, such as CAR-T cell treatments and personalized gene editing, further drives the demand for aseptic connection solutions. These therapies are typically produced in small, patient-specific batches, requiring highly sterile, adaptable workflows with frequent connections and disconnections. Aseptic connectors that offer ease of use, sterility assurance, and scalability are essential to support these complex processes. For instance, in April 2021, CPC emphasized adopting Single-Use Technology (SU and gene therapy (CGT) manufacturing to address scalability challenges.
