The global biological safety cabinet market size reached US$ 222.6 Million in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 343.6 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5% during 2022-2028.

A biological safety cabinet (BSC) refers to a ventilated laboratory workspace designed for protecting workers and equipment from contamination through various pathogens. The cabinets minimize the biological exposure from harmful viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms. They are classified into three classes I, II and III. Class I cabinets protect the user and the surrounding environment. Class II cabinets protect the user, environment and the samples and are used for low to moderate risk biological agents and class III cabinets offer maximum protection through gas-tight enclosures. They can be customized to provide different protection levels to obtain optimum control over product quality and minimize the potential risks of contamination.

The increasing risks of communicable diseases, along with the on-going viral pandemic, is among the key factors driving the growth of the market. As the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues to spread across the globe, there has been a significant increase in the demand for BSCs in healthcare centers. Furthermore, the rising requirement to safeguard the product, personnel and environment from biohazard exposure and cross-contamination is providing a thrust to the market growth. BSCs are widely used by diagnostic labs and pharmaceutical manufacturers to maintain the microbiological quality of drugs. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the development of cabinet variants with improved construction, airflow pattern, velocities and exhaust systems, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. They are also equipped with digital interfaces for easy control of the cabinet and high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters to maintain the sterility of the environment. Other factors, including the rapid modernization of laboratory equipment, along with improvements in the healthcare infrastructure, are anticipated to drive the market further.
