The rising pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries and the increasing number of surgical procedures are expected to drive the market’s growth.

The rising pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries for various purposes by major industries, including vaccines, medical devices, API formulation or oncology studies, the growing incidence of hospital-acquired infections that require bio-decontamination continuously to provide patients with infectious agents’ free environment, and the increasing outsourcing of bio-decontamination services is growing the bio-decontamination market. An increased population with diseases globally is also aiding the market growth. There has been an increase in R&D activities by many healthcare companies to develop novel products that will also enhance the market.

The number of surgical procedures is increasing gradually as people are adopting minimally invasive surgical procedures for various purposes like cosmetic surgeries for facial reconstruction, cardiovascular surgeries for heart-related issues and neurological surgeries for neurodegenerative disorders, chemotherapy or surgical tumor removal. All these factors are fueling the market’s growth. Moreover, the increase in research and development of novel applications of this bio-decontamination services and the availability of technologically advanced products by key players are also expected to play a vital role in the market’s growth.

Various novel product launches, regulatory approvals and research studies contribute to the market’s growth. For instance, in December 18, 2020, Ecolab Inc., the water, hygiene and infection prevention services and solutions provider that protects vital resources and people, announced that it has received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for its Bioquell Technology System from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to decontaminate N95 respirators. This emergency use authorization is for Bioquell ProteQ and Bioquell BQ-50 decontamination systems of Ecolab, which helps healthcare facilities decontaminate on-site respirators to prevent respirator shortages.

The presence of cheaper manual bio-decontamination methods as an alternative is expected to hamper the market’s growth.

However, the availability of cheaper alternatives to bio-decontamination methods may hinder the market’s growth. A few drawbacks associated with the agents used for bio-decontaminations may limit the market’s growth, such as formaldehyde having poor penetration and acting slowly. It also shows some health effects, like carcinogenic and toxic effects, and it also reacts with chlorine and forms bischloromethyl ether. Hydrogen peroxide also has minor drawbacks, such as higher resistance has been found in a few catalase-producing bacteria, and hydrogen peroxide requires specialist equipment.

COVID-19 Impact on Bio Decontamination Market

The pandemic has positively impacted global financial expectations, operations and crisis response strategy. The COVID-19 outbreak has severely impacted the healthcare industry. The bio-decontamination market has experienced huge profits due to COVID. Due to the increasing number of COVID cases in hospitals, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies focused more on sterilization and used bio-decontamination to minimize the risk of spreading the virus. Various initiatives, product launches, innovations, collaborations and mergers are happening worldwide, boosting the market’s growth. For instance, in December 12, 2022, Amira Srl announced that in Australia, its new distributor for the product range of Bioreset would be Opira, a risk management service and indoor environmental testing provider.

Bio Decontamination Market Segmentation Analysis

The hydrogen peroxide segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2029)

The hydrogen peroxide segment is the highest market holder in the global bio-decontamination market. The global bio-decontamination market is segmented based on agent type as hydrogen peroxide, chlorine dioxide, peracetic acid and nitrogen dioxide. The hydrogen peroxide segment is the largest market shareholder due to its high demand owing to its advantages over the other agents used in several industries, rising adoption of these bio-decontaminations and increased research and development activities, which are expected to remain high during the forecast period.

Hydrogen peroxide is a sterilant, well-known and utilized in the food industry, where liquid hydrogen peroxide is applied to disinfect plastic bottles or packaging material. Hydrogen peroxide has a high antimicrobial activity spectrum with low toxicity. Hydrogen peroxide residues decompose into water and oxygen, a neutral species that show this agent's eco-friendliness. Hydrogen peroxide in the vapor state is highly used. The vaporized hydrogen peroxide is utilized for bottles and pharmaceutical equipment interiors, like isolators (mini-cleanrooms) disinfection. Hydrogen peroxide vapor has been known for bio-decontamination.
