Ultra-Low Temperature Freezers Market Trends



  • Growing the need for blood and blood product is driving the market growth


Market CAGR for ultra-low temperature freezers is driven by the growing demand for blood and blood products. Many of the body's most important processes require blood or blood components. Treating acute and chronic diseases caused by deficiencies or defects in plasma proteins or cellular blood components, including preventing complications like life-threatening hemorrhage and alleviating anemia-related symptoms, all rely on blood transfusions as a supportive therapy. The need for a blood transfusion might arise in either an urban or rural setting. As a result of inadequate procedures for storing and testing blood, millions of individuals are at risk of infection. The blood and blood components stored in the laboratory's freezers save lives because they are kept cold and protected from contamination. Market growth is partly fueled by increasing government initiatives to increase blood collection, efficient use, and individual awareness.


Additionally, greater investment in life sciences and life science is predicted to increase as more people use customized medicines, increasing demand for these freezers. A similar aspect that will boost investments in life science research is the rising need for medicines storage equipment at blood banks, academic & research facilities, and hospitals. Researchers in the field of life sciences would also benefit from the public's increasing awareness of opportunities to donate blood and organs. This element is therefore anticipated to contribute significantly to the expansion of the ultra-low temperature freezers market.


For instance, Pharmaceutical refrigerators with freezers (MPR-N250FH/N250FSH) and sliding-door pharmaceutical refrigerators (MPR-S500H/S500RH) were introduced by PHC Corporation. These inverter-compressor-equipped, natural-refrigerant-using machines were developed with the unique needs of laboratories and hospitals in mind. As a result, the demand for ultra-low temperature freezers is anticipated to increase throughout the projection period due to the rising blood demand. Thus, the driving factor is the ultra-low temperature freezers market revenue.
