The global microfluidics market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 18.3% during the forecast period (2021-2027). Microfluidics is tools that can process micro or nano volumes of fluids to control chemical, biological, and physical changes. In recent years, research in microfluidics devices has risen significantly. Lithography is used for the fabrication of microfluidics. The surge of usage of ICs in electronic devices has given significant growth to the microfluidics market globally. In the diagnosis industry, paper-based microfluidics is emerging as an effective multiplexable point-of-care platform. It has its potential application in the quantitative analysis of veterinary medicine, environmental monitoring, and food safety. Thus, it generates huge opportunities for market growth in the future. The complex regulatory standards are the major restraining factor for the global microfluidic market.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Microfluidics Market

The governments and health care institutes across the globe had increased their investments in R&D and lab testing devices during the COVID-19 pandemic where the use of microfluidics is immense. For instance, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology had discovered the fastest portable device in June 2020 that can detect the COVID-19 infection in just 40 minutes. Thus, with the development of healthcare infrastructure, the market of microfluidics will grow significantly during the forecast period.

Segmental Outlook 

The global microfluidics market is segmented based on the component, material, and application. Based on the component, the market is segmented into microfluidic chips, micro pumps, microneedles, and other components. Based on material, the market is sub-segmented into polymer, silicon, glass, and other materials. Based on the application, the market is segmented into lab-on-a-chip, organs-on-chips, continuous flow microfluidics, optofluidics & microfluidics, acoustofluidics & microfluidics, and electrophoresis & microfluidics.

Global Microfluidics  Market Share by Material, 2020 (%)

The Polymer Segment Held the Major Share in the Global Microfluidics Market

Based on material, the polymer segment holds the major share in the global microfluidics market. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is the most popularly used polymer in the market, however, it has hydrophobicity challenges associated with it that make it unfunctional in aqueous solutions. Novel PDMS is now introduced in the market as a solution to hydrophobicity problems. This material has ease of fabrication and is economically affordable which makes it popular. Glass is the second most popularly used material in the microfluidics market as it is an amorphous material. Additionally, it can work on elevated temperatures and organic solvents as well. For processing microfluidic devices made of glass photolithography and wet & dry etching methods are used.

Based on application, the lab-on-a-chip segment held considerable share in the market as it provides high-speed detection of DNA and RNA amplifications which makes it useful in the molecular biology industry. The organs-on-chips segment is expected to grow fastest during the forecast period as it can mimic various biological processes including peristalsis, infection, and breathing. These types of chips are widely used for the discovery of medical drugs. Various international institutions including NCATS, FDA, and NIH are now focusing the drug trials on human tissue chips rather than animal models for the welfare of animals.

Regional Outlooks

The global microfluidics market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East and Africa, and Latin America).

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2020 had demonstrated a prototype of a rapid COVID-19 molecular test and an instrument to read results on mobile phones. North America is followed by Europe in terms of market share.

The UK is the major contributor to the European microfluidics market. The increasing funding and advancement in technology are the major driving factors for the market in the region. For instance, MicrofluidX had received seed funding of $1.8 million from UKI2S, Longwall Ventures, and Cambridge Angels for the development of the microfluidic platform for gene and cell therapies economically.

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global microfluidics market include Agilent Technologies, Inc., Danaher Corp., GE Healthcare, Merck KGaA, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers & acquisitions, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in September 2019, Fluidigm Corp. had launched an economical novel microfluidics-based workflow, Advanta RNA-Seq NGS Library Prep Kit. Similarly, Cepheid partnered with Sherlock Biosciences in February 2020 for the development of new cutting-edge molecular diagnostic tests of COVID-19.
