The crystallization equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.53 billion in 2024 to $3.74 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the growing demand for crystallization equipment in the plastics industry, increasing demand for pharmaceuticals, need for high-purity compounds, rising demand for nutraceuticals and dietary supplements and increased industrial activity, rise in the demand for crystallization processes in the medical industries.

The crystallization equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.65 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of the pharmaceutical industry, increasing investment in research and development, stricter environmental regulations, rising mining and mineral processing and growth in the biotechnology sector, and rising demand for high-quality and pure crystals. Major trends in the forecast period include improvements in chemical engineering techniques, agricultural sector development, technological innovations, innovations in crystallization technology, and developments in biotechnology.

The increasing demand for pharmaceuticals is expected to propel the growth of the crystallization equipment market. The pharmaceutical industry, responsible for discovering, developing, producing, and marketing drugs, is experiencing heightened demand due to the growing need for medications, biologics, and medical devices aimed at curing, preventing, or alleviating diseases. Crystallization equipment plays a vital role in the pharmaceutical industry by enabling the purification of substances through controlled crystal formation, ensuring precise control over particle size, shape, and purity, which are crucial for drug development and manufacturing processes. For instance, in July 2024, the National Library of Medicine reported that pharmaceutical expenditures in the U.S. rose by 13.6% to $722.5 billion in 2023, driven by a 6.5% increase in drug utilization, 4.2% from new drugs, and a 2.9% rise in prices. This surge in pharmaceutical demand is fueling the growth of the crystallization equipment market.

Leading companies in the crystallization equipment sector are concentrating on innovating advanced products, such as multi-reactor crystallizers, to improve efficiency, scalability, and precision in crystal formation processes. Multi-reactor crystallizers use multiple reactors simultaneously to facilitate crystallization. For example, in April 2022, Technobis Crystallization Systems launched the Crystal16 version 3, a multi-reactor crystallizer tailored for medium-throughput solubility determination and solid-state research. The Crystal16 enables concurrent testing of various crystallization conditions, such as solvents, temperatures, and concentrations, to optimize the process. It features integrated turbidity sensors and adaptable software for creating phase diagrams and solubility curves, making it suitable for various industries.

In February 2022, CMM Group partnered with Condorchem Envitech S.L. to enhance their capabilities in designing, manufacturing, and installing vacuum crystallizers for specialized applications. This collaboration aims to leverage the combined expertise of both companies to provide comprehensive solutions to diverse industrial needs. Condorchem Envitech S.L. is an environmental engineering company based in Spain.

Crystallization equipment encompasses machinery and devices utilized in both industrial and laboratory environments to facilitate the formation of solid crystals from solutions, melts, or vapors. Its importance lies in purifying chemicals, manufacturing pharmaceuticals, producing food items, and developing materials with specific structural characteristics.

Various types of crystallization equipment exist, including batch vacuum crystallizers, cooling crystallizers, draft tube baffle crystallizers, evaporative crystallizers, fluidized bed crystallizers, forced-circulation crystallizers, oslo crystallizers, surface-cooled crystallizers, and vacuum crystallizers. Each type serves distinct purposes for example, batch vacuum crystallizers are ideal for applications requiring very low temperatures and handling small material volumes. Crystallization processes can be categorized into cooling, evaporative, and reactive types, executed through either batch or continuous methods. Industries benefiting from these processes include agrochemicals, chemicals, food and beverages, metals and minerals, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment.
