Powerful forces affect the global excipients industry in 2009, including a crisis in the global supply chain, the demands of Quality by Design, worries about drug safety, new legislation in the offing, a need for new excipients, exciting ideas for unlocking the industry's creativity, and new levels of cooperation between major players (for example, Dow and Colorcon). These forces are reshaping the business rapidly. And, as if these factors weren’t enough, companies are also contending with a nasty recession. Up-to-date information is essential for competitors.
 
The primary goals of this technical/market report are to provide a detailed analysis of the excipients market today and a forecast of what the market will look like in 5 years. The specific objectives: (1) identify excipients being used; (2) quantify global market volume; (3) track important developments; (4) analyze the structure of the industry and its driving forces; (5) examine the most active companies and describe how they respond to market demands; and (6) provide data with which the reader can further evaluate the industry.
