by The injection port market is an integral part of the pharmaceutical packaging industry and is witnessing high demand from end-use industries such as pharmaceutical and biotechnology. Injection ports, also known as septa, enable filling processes in biopharmaceutical manufacturing and are made from materials such as silicone, PolyTetrafluoroEthylene (PTFE), etc. They provide a reliable seal and barrier that protect components inside drug containers from external contamination while allowing access to the contents using a needle or other instrument. With the burgeoning pharmaceutical industry and rising prevalence of diseases, manufacturers are increasingly utilizing pre-filled syringes for convenience and safety. This has boosted the adoption of injection ports as they play a vital role in packaging of pre-filled syringes.
The global Injection Port Market is estimated to be valued at Us$ 1.57 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR Of 7.6% over the forecast period 2024 To 2031, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Dynamics:
Growing Adoption of Pre-Filled Syringes: As mentioned in the heading, pre-filled syringes provide convenience to patients and reduce dosing errors compared to conventional syringes. Their growing adoption across therapeutic areas like diabetes, oncology and arthritis is fueling the demand for injection ports. According to estimates, pre-filled syringe sales accounted for over 60% of the global injectable drug delivery market in 2021.
Stringent Safety and Sterility Requirements: Pharmaceutical packaging components including injection ports need to comply with stringent regulatory safety and sterility standards. They are subject to extensive testing and certification to prevent microbial contamination. This drives innovation and R&D among injection port manufacturers towards developing more reliable and high-performance sealing solutions. Advanced materials and manufacturing technologies contribute to the market’s positive outlook over the forecast period.
