Scintillation Vials Market Overview

The global sales of scintillation vials are estimated to be worth USD 267 million in 2021 and are anticipated to reach a value of USD 432.9 million by 2031. Sales are projected to rise at a CAGR of 5.0% over the forecast period between 2021 and 2031. The revenue generated by scintillation vials in 2020 was USD 254 million.

The scintillation vials market is fueled by the growing demand for sophisticated laboratory and research equipment in various industries such as pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, among others.

The vials form a necessary part of the exact measurement of radioactive samples, a factor that increases demand as nuclear medicine and radiological research continue to grow. Innovations regarding vial materials, including improved chemical resistance and enhanced transparency, support better accuracy and safety in experiments.

This trend is, in addition, driven by increasing academic and clinical research in areas related to the treatment and diagnosis of cancer. Further, strict standards put in place for the handling and disposal of samples raise demands for high-quality, standards-compliant scintillation vials. Another developing factor driving market growth is the increased global research infrastructure and government funding within the life sciences.

Scintillation vials permit easy UV light transmission and are light-weight, which allows increased counting efficiency. In addition, these vials help to preserve and protect the drugs and also helps in the detection of microorganisms. These particular vials are easy to clean, dust resistant, and non-reactive with the samples stored in it.

Furthermore, they are eco-friendly and also maintains hygienic conditions. They can be recycled, which can reduce the costs of waste disposal. They are made from glass which resists oxygen permeation, which prevents the drugs from degradation.

Glass vials resist the escape of volatile ingredients, thus keeping the sample in its original form. Scintillation vials are available in market are manufactured from materials such as glass, polyethylene etc., depending on need of the customers. They are available with caps and without caps based on its usage. Capped vials are the most preferred owing to its prevention from chances of spillage and contamination of samples. The vials are extensively used in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry.

What is Driving Demand for Scintillation Vials?

Changing environmental conditions have led to an increase in health problems and diseases. Need for a safe and hygienic storage system is anticipated to drive the market for vials. The vials are growing on the backdrop of upsurge demand from several end use like biotech, life sciences, pathology, etc.

In addition, evolving pharmaceutical sector and growth in diagnostics related spending is projected to acts as a key driver for the development of these vials’ market during the forecast period.

Furthermore, increasing awareness about health concerns has led to increased check-up rates, which is driving the desired market. The desired vials can be reused and recycled, which provides an eco-friendly option and can gain attention of the consumers.

Plastic vials with caps are easy to carry and are even light weight and tough as compared to glass vials. However, government regulations for disposal of plastic waste can hamper the plastic scintillation vials market during the forecast period. Glass vials are vulnerable and can easily break thus can hinder the global vials market during the forecast period.

Pharmaceutical and Biotech to Remain a Key Segment for the Consumption of Scintillation Vials

In the past, pharmaceutical and biotech companies dominated the vials market under the end user segment, and they will also witness the fastest growth in the usage of vials in the near future.

As these firms manufacture drugs in bulk, they require vials in large numbers. The rising demand for more-effective drugs, owing to the increasing prevalence of chronic and acute diseases, is propelling the procurement of such products by biopharma and pharma companies
