Following a wave of M&A activity, strategic investment in life science services, innovation and pandemic driven biopharmaceutical and life science development some top 20 suppliers of analytical laboratory technologies have seen reshuffling of their operations. The total market for analytical and life science instrumentation rose to over $80 billion in 2022, an over 30% increased relative to five years prior. While the market consists of thousands of vendors carving out space in their respective market niches, the top twenty vendors remain a dominant force, benefitting from well capitalized market capital and private equity firms.
Unsurprisingly, even these sizable market makers are held in abeyance or spurred on by regulatory or stakeholder sentiment and approval, or lack thereof. As regulators scrutinize the level of competition an acquisition brings to the market or the validity of market patents these top companies operate by bringing lab instrumentation, software, reagents, and consumables of varying levels of simplicity to the research lab market. Product offerings include, among other technologies, chromatography, mass spectrometry, cell culture and life science instrumentation, spectroscopy, and microscopy.
In order to visualize the available competitive intelligence of the biggest suppliers in lab instrumentation, SDi has produced the 2023 Company Market Shares: Competitive Profiles of Leading Instrument Suppliers. In this analysis, the competitive situation is on display for market participants and for external investors and other observers to get a more complete picture of laboratory instrumentation market. The data available in this report could be visualized in many ways including end market and regional segmentation, however, this report assesses vendor share across different technologies, and over time.
