Automated systems and pipettes lead segment growth
Automated systems held the largest share of the market in 2025 and are projected to post the highest CAGR of 9.0% through 2031, as pharmaceutical and biotechnology laboratories shift from manual liquid transfer to robotic platforms for pipetting, dispensing, dilution and microplate handling. Within product categories, pipettes accounted for the largest 2025 share and are forecast to grow fastest at 9.5% CAGR, driven by adoption of electronic and multi-channel pipetting systems that integrate with laboratory information management systems (LIMS) and support nanoliter-scale dispensing for genomics and cell and gene therapy workflows.
