Laboratory Glassware Market by Product (Glassware (Pipette, Flasks, Containers, Petri Dishes, Slides), Plasticware (Pipette, Laboratory Beakers, Racks, Storage Boxes)), End User (Diagnostic Center, Pharmaceuticals)
The global laboratory glassware market size is projected to grow at CAGR of 3.7%. The growth in this market will be majorly driven by the increasing demand for plasticware as they are flexible, easy to handle and inexpensive. Technological development has led to added advantages of using plasticware over glassware which further helping in increasing adoption rate among end users. On the other hand, the brittle nature of glass (resulting in low preference for glassware) and lack of funds (resulting in fewer research activities, thus affecting both glassware markets) are the major factors restraining the growth of this market. Specialty glass, however, is expected to offer growth opportunities for market players during the forecast period.
In this report, the laboratory glassware market is broadly segmented into glassware products, plasticware products, end users, and regions. The market is segmented into pipettes and pipette tips, storage containers, beakers, flasks, and other products, such as vials, carrier trays, racks, storage boxes, and Büchner funnels. Pipettes and pipette tips accounted for the largest share of this market. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the various advantages associated with using plastic pipettes. Plastic pipettes are largely preferred as they do not break or chip when they are used to handle hazardous chemicals or chemical substances.
The glassware market is segmented into pipettes and pipette tips, storage containers, beakers, flasks, petri dishes, and other products, such as stirring rods, slides, vials, test tubes, Büchner funnels, and measuring cylinders. The pipettes and pipette tips segment accounted for the largest share of the laboratory glassware market in 2015. This largest share can be attributed to the increasing usage of glass pipettes and pipette tips in in academic institutes and research laboratories.
North America accounted for more than 40% of the laboratory glassware market. In this region, the application of laboratory glassware in R&D studies is the major factor attributing to its growth. However, in the coming years, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to witness the highest growth owing to the rising outsourcing activities in research and manufacturing as a result of low costs and access to skilled labor in this region.
Due to the product-driven nature of the laboratory glassware market, players primarily focused on new product launches to remain competitive. Majority of players launched pipettes or pipetting systems in the recent years. Companies launched new and advanced products to strengthen their portfolios and cater to the needs of the market.
Major players in this market include Corning, Inc. (U.S.), Eppendorf AG (Germany), Sartorius AG (Germany), and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. (U.S.).

Increasing demand for plasticware owing to its cost-effectiveness, technological advancements, and introduction of specialty glassware are driving the laboratory glassware market. However, the brittle nature of glass and lack of funds (resulting in diminished research activities) are expected to hinder the growth of this market to a certain extent in the forecast period.
By product, the pipettes and pipette tips segment is expected to be the faster growing in the laboratory glassware and plasticware market during the forecast period.
The pipettes and pipette tips segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2015 and 2020. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing preference of plasticware pipettes over glassware to overcome the issue of breakage and growing use of glass pipettes in academic institutes and research laboratories.
By end user, the hospital and diagnostic centers segment is growing at the highest rate.
The research hospital and diagnostic centers segment is projected to grow at the highest rate in the market, by end user. In order to cut healthcare costs, early detection of diseases and preventative care is gaining momentum in healthcare systems of all developed countries. This is expected to drive the laboratory glassware and plasticware market as many diagnostic tests are being carried out in hospital and diagnostic centers as a precautionary measure.
North America is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period.
The laboratory glassware market is divided into four major regions-North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World (RoW). North America accounted for the largest share of the laboratory glassware market. The large share of the North American region is mainly attributed to the growing number of diagnostic tests, increased usage of laboratory consumables, and introduction of specially designed plasticware.
The Asia-Pacific region is expected to grow at the highest CAGR in the next five years. Growth in the APAC laboratory glassware market is mainly driven by increased R&D outsourcing, evolving mindset towards wellness, and rising healthcare expenditure in this region.
