Report Scope

This report addresses the global market for microfluidics devices and applications, from 2011 (base year) through 2017.  Microfluidic devices are defined, in general terms, as devices that handle very small (e.g., micro- or nanoliter) volumes of fluids.

The study format includes the following major elements:

  • Executive summary.
  • Definitions.
  • Microfluidic components and systems.
  • Microfluidic fabrication technologies
  • Major end-user markets and applications.
  • Global microfluidic market trends, 2011–2017.
  • Industry structure, market shares and ownership trends.
  • Factors that will influence the long-term development of microfluidic technologies.

Report Highlights

  • The global market for microfluidic technologies was worth an estimated $2.9 billion in 2005. This figure should grow to $3.2 billion in 2006 and $6.2 billion by 2011, i.e., an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 14.1% over the next five years.
  • Inkjet printing is by far the largest application of microfluidics, accounting for nearly three-quarters of the total market. Despite its size, inkjet printing is the slowest-growing application segment with a projected AAGR of under 8%, and by 2011 is expected to account for slightly over half of the market.
  • Smaller application segments, particularly chemical analysis and synthesis and proteomics are growing at a slower pace than healthcare-related applications. The market for defense and public safety applications should remain small throughout the forecast period.

Report Highlights

  • The worldwide market for microfluidic-based systems and devices is expected to climb at an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 15.5% to nearly $2 billion in 2008, from $950 million in 2003.
  • New developments in fluidics, microelectronics and detection systems have enabled microfluidics to move from theory to commercial reality in only a few years.
  • The major impact of such systems and devices is likely to be in the $10 billion analytical laboratory instrumentation market.
  • With the high cost of drug development and the pressure to reduce the development cycle time, high throughput screening and lab-on-a-chip have garnered the most attention. Hence, 37% of the total current revenue comes from these areas.
