The laboratory refrigerators and ovens market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.44 billion in 2023 to $1.53 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to various factors, including research and development activities, stringent regulatory requirements, the expansion of biobanking and sample storage, and the overall growth in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Additionally, the globalization of research has played a significant role in contributing to this growth.

The laboratory refrigerators and ovens market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.96 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including the advancement of precision medicine and personalized healthcare, research related to climate change, ongoing studies on COVID-19 and vaccine storage, a growing focus on energy efficiency and sustainability, and the demand for storage solutions in biological and pharmaceutical applications. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass a continued emphasis on energy efficiency and sustainability, the integration of smart and connected laboratory equipment, a focus on temperature uniformity and precision control, a rise in customization for specialized applications, and ongoing innovations in cooling technologies.

The anticipated growth of the laboratory refrigerators and ovens market is driven by the expanding healthcare infrastructure. Health expenditure, aimed at promoting, restoring, and sustaining health, is a significant capital consumption. In the healthcare industry, laboratory refrigerators and ovens play a crucial role in storing various biological samples such as explosive chemicals, ribonucleic acid (RNA), deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), blood, blood derivatives, biological reagents, vaccines, and medications. The rising demand for these storage solutions is expected to parallel the growth in healthcare infrastructure. For example, a report from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services in March 2022 predicted an annual increase in national health spending averaging 5.1% between 2021 and 2030, reaching around $6.8 trillion by 2030. The increasing healthcare infrastructure is, therefore, a driving force behind the growth of the laboratory refrigerators and ovens market.

Another factor contributing to the growth of the laboratory refrigerators and ovens market is the increasing number of clinical trials. Clinical trials, which assess the safety, efficacy, and benefits of medical interventions, require sophisticated storage solutions to maintain the quality and integrity of essential materials. Laboratory refrigerators and ovens play a vital role in meeting this need. As of May 2023, ClinicalTrials.gov recorded 452,604 clinical studies, indicating a significant rise from the 365,000 registered trials in early 2021. This surge in clinical trials emphasizes the demand for high-quality storage equipment, driving the growth of the laboratory refrigerators and ovens market.
