The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is projected to drive the growth of the single-use consumables market. Chronic diseases refer to health conditions that are persistent or long-lasting, typically lasting three months or longer, and may worsen over time, necessitating ongoing medical attention. Single-use consumables are widely utilized in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals and medical equipment designed to treat these chronic conditions. For example, in June 2024, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, an Australian government agency, reported that the death rate from chronic conditions rose from 459 per 100,000 in 2021 to 490 per 100,000 in 2022, indicating a notable increase. As a result, the growing prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to boost the single-use consumables market.

The increasing demand for sanitation and hygiene is anticipated to drive the growth of the single-use consumables market in the coming years. Sanitation involves providing facilities and services for the safe disposal of human waste, including effective waste management systems. Hygiene refers to personal cleanliness and healthy practices that help prevent the spread of disease. Both sanitation and hygiene are vital for health, survival, and development, playing a crucial role in preventing diseases associated with water, sanitation, and hygiene. Single-use consumables are particularly important in settings where maintaining sterility and preventing cross-contamination are essential, thereby enhancing sanitation and hygiene standards in pharmaceutical manufacturing, healthcare, and other controlled environments. For instance, in July 2023, UNICEF, a U.S.-based organization, reported that in 2022, 3.5 billion people lacked access to safely managed sanitation, while 2 billion did not have basic hygiene services. To achieve universal coverage by 2030, it is necessary to quintuple the availability of safely managed sanitation and triple the provision of basic hygiene services. Consequently, the rising need for sanitation and hygiene is driving the growth of the single-use consumables market.

Key companies in the single-use consumables market are concentrating on creating innovative products, such as aseptic connectors, to enhance safety, efficiency, and convenience in medical and pharmaceutical applications. Aseptic connectors are specialized devices that establish a sterile connection between two fluid paths, ensuring that no contaminants are introduced during the transfer of liquids in medical or pharmaceutical processes. For example, in April 2023, Colder Products Company, a U.S.-based manufacturing firm, introduced the AseptiQuik W Series. This series features the largest genderless aseptic connectors in the industry, designed for single-use applications with high-flow capabilities of up to 5,000 liters per minute. This innovative solution improves fluid transfer efficiency in biopharmaceutical processing, supporting advanced production requirements while maintaining sterility and reducing cross-contamination risks.

Companies operating in the single-use consumables market are also making strides in launching cutting-edge solutions such as single-use bioreactor systems to drive market revenues. These bioreactor systems utilize disposable components, such as plastic bags or containers, instead of traditional stainless steel or glass culture vessels for bioprocessing applications. For instance, Getinge, a Sweden-based medical technology company, launched the AppliFlex ST GMP in September 2023. This single-use bioreactor is designed for clinical cell and gene therapies, offering scalability and seamless transition from laboratory research to clinical manufacturing in mRNA production, gene therapy, and cell therapy. The comprehensive solution provided by AppliFlex ST GMP includes consumables, auxiliaries, verification, and GMP-compliant software, making it suitable for producing materials for clinical production and trials.

In May 2024, Novo Holdings A/S, a life insurance company based in Denmark, acquired a 60% majority stake in Single Use Support for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is intended to strengthen Novo Holdings' portfolio in the biopharmaceutical sector, particularly in the production of advanced therapies, such as biological drug substances, cell and gene therapies, and mRNA vaccines. Single Use Support GmbH is a life science tools company located in Austria.
