New York, Dec. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Biologics Fill Finish Services Market by Type of Packaging Containers, Type of Biologics, Scale of Operation, Company Size, Key Therapeutic Areas, Geographical Regions : Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2022-2035" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p06371555/?utm_source=GNW
Currently, more than 200 biologics are commercially available and over 10,000 candidates are under clinical evaluation. With the increasing demand and diversity of biologics, an increase in the demand for production capacity and aseptic fill / finish operations has been observed. Fill / finish refers to the process of filling the final drug products in sterile packaging containers (including vials, syringes, ampoules and cartridges). Of all the steps involved in the production of biologics, fill / finish is amongst the most critical steps and a heavily outsourced operation. In fact, even a minute error during the fill / finish process can lead to microbial contamination, which can subsequently result in the loss of drug product, production delays and, most importantly, pose risk to the patient’s health. As a result, various stakeholders are turning to contract service providers for their fill / finish related requirements and necessary infrastructure, to ensure the development of quality drug products.
With the growing pipeline of biologics, the demand for contract services for development and fill / finish has increased. Currently, close to 180 companies offer fill / finish services for a wide range of biologics. These stakeholders have taken several initiatives to expand their existing facilities and incorporate advanced technologies in order to meet the growing demand for fill / finish services, reduce cost of operation / increase efficiency, and comply to evolving safety and regulatory requirements. Additionally, the biopharmaceutical industry has witnessed substantial number of partnerships and collaborations between drug developers and fill / finish service providers over the last few years. We believe that service providers are likely to continue undertaking similar initiatives to consolidate their presence in this field, distinguish themselves from the competition and cater to the diversified needs of their clientele. With outsourcing being increasingly accepted as a viable / beneficial business model and the anticipated growth in the biologics market, the opportunity for fill / finish service providers is expected to grow at a steady pace over the coming years.
