Dublin, May 07, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Track and Trace Solutions Market by Product, Technology (2D Barcode, RFID) Application, End User - Global Forecast to 2024" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The track and trace solutions market is projected to reach USD 4.21 billion by 2024 from USD 2.16 billion in 2019, at a CAGR of 14.2%.

Factors such as the stringent regulations & standards for the implementation of serialization, increasing focus of manufacturers on brand protection, growth in the number of packaging-related product recalls, high growth in the generic and OTC markets, and growth in the medical device industry are driving the track and trace solutions market.

However, the high costs and long implementation timeframe associated with serialization and aggregation and the huge setup costs are expected to restrain market growth to a certain extent during the forecast period.

The Standalone Platforms Segment to Witness the Highest Growth During the Forecast Period

On the basis of product, the track and trace solutions market are segmented into software, hardware components, and standalone platforms. The standalone platforms segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The stringent government regulations for the implementation of serialization and UDI codes in the pharma and medical device industry, increasing pressure on pharmaceutical companies to adopt serialization, and increasing demand for standalone platforms to reduce the serialization implementation timeframe are some of the major factors driving the growth of this market segment.

The Tracking, Tracing, and Reporting Segment to Register the Highest CAGR During the Forecast Period

Based on application, the track and trace solutions market are segmented into serialization; aggregation; and tracking, tracing, and reporting solutions.

The tracking, tracing, & reporting solutions segment is expected to register the highest CAGR owing to the increasing number of regulations such as DSCSA, UDI, and Medical Device Reporting (MDR) for medical devices and pharmaceutical products.

APAC Region is Projected to Witness the Highest Growth During the Forecast Period

The APAC region is expected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the expanding pharmaceutical market and the implementation of stringent regulations to enhance the quality and reliability of pharmaceutical drugs as they move from manufacturing to the consumer are the key drivers for market growth in this region.
