Pharmaceutical Continuous Manufacturing Market Analysis

Pharmaceutical companies are constantly investing into innovative manufacturing technologies for gaining competitive advantage and staying ahead in the market, thereby driving the continuous manufacturing market. Continuous manufacturing permits the pharmaceutical companies to have greater control over their production process, which helps in quality improvement and consistency of the end product, thereby reducing deviations, wastage, and saving rework time and recall costs. Pharmaceutical continuous manufacturing can improve the quality of the final product, enhance process control, and permit real-time release testing. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are the regulatory bodies that are increasingly favouring the use of continuous manufacturing in the pharmaceutical industry. Furthermore, continuous manufacturing has become more appealing and practical in the pharmaceutical industry because of the improved process monitoring, control, and optimization provided through the means of automation, system control, data analytics, and process analysis technology (PAT), which drives the market.

Pharmaceutical Continuous Manufacturing Market Overview

As a viable solution for minimizing pressure and reducing drug development time and costs, while also maintaining end-product quality and supply in the pharmaceutical industry continuous manufacturing is highly being used. Therefore, owing to such benefits the continuous manufacturing market is witnessing healthy growth. Additionally, growing initiatives for promoting the use of continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing systems by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the numerous advantages of continuous manufacturing systems over batch manufacturing are some of the main factors that are driving the growth of the market. However, on the other hand the high cost implementation of pharmaceutical continuous manufacturing systems is likely to hinder the market growth.
