Industrial Microbiology Market Size, Growth, Trends | Report 2022-2030
The global industrial microbiology market size was estimated at around USD 10.1 billion in 2021 and it is projected to hit around USD 21.4 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.7% from 2022 to 2030.
The growth of biotechnology in the past few years has led to advancements in the field of industrial microbiology. This biotechnology branch applies microbial knowledge to create industrial products with high yields. The continuous use of these microorganisms for many applications such as medical (for production of drugs, vaccines, hormones), food (for fermentation, dairy products, organic compounds), environment (for water treatment & purification, soil testing), and many more have driven the market in the past years.
With the developments in quality standards for all products in recent years, various industries have also employed the use of microbiology testing methods. These stringent and necessitated testing requirements to maintain the integrity and quality control of the product offerings are expected to boost the industrial microbiology market in the years to come. Moreover, the understanding of molecular biology coupled with genetic technologies has posed a positive impact on microbiological applications for the development of novel diagnostics methods. The COVID-19 pandemic has also bolstered market growth. For example, in a published January 2022 research article, a paper-based biosensor technology was devised for the detection of SARS-CoV2 in human saliva. The researchers from Brigham Young University, USA used E.coli lysate for the detection of SARS-CoV2 RNA with a bioluminescent output.

The industrial microbiology market has various applications in multiple industries, a few of these are;
For pharmaceutical & biotechnology industries, rigorous quality standards are to be maintained during the manufacturing process. These standards are maintained via different methods, one such method is the environmental monitoring process which determines the quality and sterility of the controlled production environment. Environmental monitoring evaluates the microbial load of air, surfaces and personnel and verifies the established quality standards. The food & beverage industry heavily relies on industrial microbiology testing techniques to eliminate any possible pathogens and toxins in the products and protect the customer from ingestion of microbes.
Furthermore, the agriculture & environmental industry’s emphasis on microbiology testing for assessing the health of plants, air, soil, and water has increased its application. Moreover, as much personal care & cosmetics products are readily available over the counter (OTC), quality control plays an important role. The microbiology quality standards for such products need to comply with regulatory guidelines. Another application area such as veterinary health, hospital hygiene, and microbial resistance testing is also of high importance as it can be associated with the incidence of diseases that may increase the mortality rates.
The continuous demand for microbiology testing solutions by multiple end-users has created numerous market opportunities for major players to capitalize. Launch of new systems, reagents & products, partnerships, expansion or opening of new facilities has been the business initiatives by key players. For example, Charles River Laboratories International, Inc. announced in May 2022 that it has opened a new facility in Germany. This facility is a center for the microbial solution business of the company in eastern and central Europe.
