Thursday 6 October 2016, Amsterdam

The report, now available on ASDReports, "Tangential Flow Filtration Market Product (Cassettes, Cartridges), Membrane Material (Polyethersulfone, Regenerated Cellulose), Technology (Ultrafiltration, Microfiltration), Pore Size (Ultrafilters), Application (Bioprocess) Global Forecast to 2021", provides a detailed overview of the major drivers, restraints, challenges, opportunities, current market trends, and strategies impacting the tangential flow filtration (TFF) market along with the estimates and forecasts of the revenue.

The tangential flow filtration market is projected to reach USD 1,005.0 Million by 2021 from USD 554.7 Million in 2016, growing at a CAGR of 12.6% during the forecast period (2016–2021).

The growth in the biopharmaceutical industry, growth in adoption of single-use technologies, and advantages of tangential flow filtration over normal flow filtration are the major drivers for the tangential flow filtration market. However, stringent government regulations for validation of filtration processes will restrain the growth of this market.

The tangential flow filtration market is broadly segmented into product, membrane material, technology, pore size/molecular weight cut-off (MWCO), applications, and regions. The product segment is further segmented into single-use TFF systems, reusable TFF systems, membrane filters, and filtration accessories. The single-use TFF systems subsegment is expected to account for the largest share of the product segment in 2016. The advantages such as minimal cross contamination, no membrane fouling, and high flux rate offered by single-use TFF systems owing to increasing demand for single-use TFF systems.

On the basis of membrane material, the tangential flow filtration market is categorized into polyethersulfone, regenerated cellulose, and other materials. The other materials include polyvinylidene fluoride and ceramic. The polyethersulfone segment is expected to account for the largest share of the tangential flow filtration market in 2016.

The technology segment of the tangential flow filtration market is categorized into ultrafiltration, microfiltration, and reverse osmosis. The ultrafiltration segment is expected to account for the largest share of the tangential flow filtration market in 2016. The wide range of applications of polyethersulfone membrane in bioprocessing is driving the growth of this segment.

On the basis of pore size/MWCO, the tangential flow filtration market is segmented into ultrafilters, microfilters, and reverse osmosis filters. The ultrafilters segment is estimated to account for the largest share in 2016 due to increased usage in the downstream of bioprocessing.

The applications segment of the tangential flow filtration market is categorized into bioprocessing, viral vectors & vaccine purification, pharmaceutical water production, and other applications. The bioprocessing segment is expected to account for the largest share of the tangential flow filtration market in 2016. The increasing demand for biologics in the pharmaceutical industry is driving the growth of this segment.

Major players in the tangential flow filtration market include Danaher Corporation (U.S.), Merck Millipore (U.S.), Sartorius Stedim Biotech S.A. (France), Parker Hannifin Corporation (U.S.), and GE Healthcare (U.S.).
