The global medical device testing services market size is expected to reach USD 13.4 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 11.5% during the forecast period. Increasing spending in the preclinical phase of medical devices coupled with growing outsourcing rate is anticipated to help the market gain significant traction.
Surging demand for in-vitro test is also projected to fuel demand for testing services as many CROs are developing novel in-vitro methods to replace traditional in-vivo methods, which require animal testing. Improvements in procedures for development and standardization of novel in vitro test methods, particularly for sensitization, cytotoxicity, and irritation, are also working in favor of the market.
There has been a significant increase in preclinical spending for both pharmaceutical and medical devices. Medical device companies estimate this trend to contribute to the demand for testing services.
Stringent regulatory standards pertaining to user safety are supporting growing trend of outsourcing medical device testing services. Increasing demand for good quality products is poised to further trigger the demand for testing services by medical device companies. These companies are constantly trying to comply with stringent regulatory norms put forth by authorities across the globe.
A significant consolidation in the CRO space has been observed in recent years. For instance, in October 2017, Sterigenics International LLC acquired Toxikon Europe N.V., the European division of Toxikon Corporation, to strengthen its preclinical service portfolio for pharmaceutical and medical device companies.
