The automated sample storage systems market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.95 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advancements in robotic sample retrieval, rising investment in cloud-based storage solutions, growing genomics and pharmaceutical research, adoption of integrated cryo-inventory management systems, development of energy-efficient and scalable storage units. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of automated cryogenic storage solutions, rising demand for ultra-low temperature freezers, integration of rfid and barcode sample tracking systems, expansion of biobanking and clinical research applications, focus on energy-efficient and high-capacity storage systems.
The growing focus on personalized medicine is expected to drive the expansion of the automated sample storage systems market in the coming years. Personalized medicine is a healthcare approach that customizes treatment and care based on individual patient characteristics, including genetic profile, lifestyle, and environmental factors, to enhance health outcomes. The adoption of personalized medicine is increasing due to advances in genetic testing, which allow for more accurate and customized therapies tailored to an individual’s genetic makeup. Automated sample storage systems support personalized medicine by securely storing and managing biological samples, enabling efficient retrieval and analysis for patient-specific treatment planning. For example, in February 2024, the Personalized Medicine Coalition, a US-based non-profit organization, reported that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 16 new personalized therapies for patients with rare diseases in 2023, up from six in 2022. Consequently, the increasing emphasis on personalized medicine is fueling the growth of the automated sample storage systems services market.
Key companies in the automated sample storage systems market are developing advanced ultracold technologies to improve biobanking efficiency, sample integrity, and sustainability.
