Pharmaceutical Filtration Market Drivers

Growing Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Activity

• Surging incidence of chronic diseases and growing demand for drugs and biologics to treat the same has resulted in increased pharmaceutical manufacturing activity around the world. Pharmaceutical filtration is a key element of pharmaceutical manufacturing, thereby its demand will also increase as pharmaceutical manufacturing activity rises.

High Investments in Drug Discovery and Development

• Investments in medical R&D are increasing at a rapid pace as pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies focus on the discovery of new drugs. Each phase of drug discovery and development involves filtration steps to ensure purity, quality, and safety. Moreover, the need for advanced and precise pharmaceutical filtration for novel drugs will also promote pharmaceutical filtration industry development in the future.

Pharmaceutical Filtration Market Restraints

Filter Process Validation Complexity

• Validating pharmaceutical filtration process is a tedious and time-consuming task as it requires companies to comply with complex regulations and standards. Thorough documentation, testing, and expertise are required to identify and validate if the pharmaceutical filtration process chosen is right for a particular drug thereby adding to the overall complexity of the validation process and slowing down pharmaceutical filtration adoption.

Risk of Contamination

• Pharmaceutical filtration processes are also subject to the risk of contamination due to filter fouling or other contaminants. Filter fouling refers to the filters getting clogged up due to improper maintenance or high particle load thereby decreasing the efficiency of the pharmaceutical filtration process and hurting market development potential going forward.
