Market Research Future (MRFR) has published a cooked research report onthe “Global Ultra-low Temperature Freezers Market,” containing information from 2023 to 2032.

Ultra-Low Temperature Freezer Market Highlights

The global ultra-low temperature freezers market is expected to register a CAGR of 4.20% during the forecast period (2023-2032) and is expected to hit USD 0.72 Billion by 2032.

Ultra-low temperature freezers (ULT freezers) are types of bio-freezers used to preserve bacteria, viruses, enzymes, drugs, chemicals, cell preparations, and tissue samples. They generally have a temperature range of -40°C, -86°C,down to -150°C. The global market for ultra-low temperature freezers is being driven by factors such as the increasingdemand for ultra-low temperature freezers, raising awareness and improving technology, alternative refrigeration cycles, demand for environment-friendly refrigerators, and increased biomedical R&D spending in Asian countries.

Ultra-low temperature freezers are widely used in research activities to transfer biomaterial in aseptic conditions and store perishable materials. In pharmaceutical research & development activities, ultra-low temperature freezers are used to store consumables, enzymes, and chemicals. The increasing investments in the pharmaceutical industry for the development of innovative drugs and ongoing research and development activities related to the biotechnology sector are providing favorable conditions for the growth of the market during the forecast period. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), in 2016, the biopharmaceutical industry in the US spent more than USD 50 billion on research and development activities, which is half of the global biopharma R&D spending. Additionally, according to areport published by the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations in 2017, the research-based pharmaceutical industry spends USD 149.8 billion on research and development activities per year.
