The Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF) membrane market is expected to reach USD 798.4 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 7.5% between 2017 and 2022. High-growth application areas such as water and wastewater treatment and rapid growth in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are the key factors driving the growth of the PVDF membrane market.

PVDF membranes are used in a variety of general filtration and sample preparation applications. These membranes offer excellent resistance to acidic and organic solvents as compared to nitrocellulose or nylon membranes, and are thus used for amino-terminal protein sequencing application. Hydrophobic and hydrophilic are two major types of membrane. These are used in the wastewater treatment and biopharmaceutical end-use industries. Hydrophilic PVDF membranes are used in applications, such as biological sample preparation, sterile filtration, and organic mobile phase filtration.

The PVDF membrane market has been segmented based on different applications, such as general filtration (aqueous & organic), sample preparation, bead-based assays, and others. The general filtration segment is estimated to be the largest segment of the market in 2017 and is also expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. General filtration includes solvent filtration, chemical intermediates filtration, and bio-products filtration wherein PVDF membranes are used for filtration of solvents.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing market PVDF membrane. Emerging economies in the region with rapidly growing infrastructure provide significant opportunities for growth of the PVDF membrane market. China and India are among the fast-growing economies in the world. The growing manufacturing sector is expected to boost the PVDF membrane market in these countries. Factors driving the demand for PVDF membrane in Asia Pacific include growing population, increasing demand for sanitation and fresh water, and growing industrialization. The market in Asia Pacific, owing to the significantly high demand for PVDF membrane, is much more dynamic and competitive than its western counterparts.

The high cost of production and maintenance of PVDF membranes can restrain the growth of the PVDF membrane market in the coming years.

Companies such as Arkema (France), Merck (Germany), Koch Membrane Systems (US), Bio-Rad (US), CITIC Envirotech (Singapore), and Thermo Fisher (US) are the major players in the global PVDF membrane market. These companies have strengthened their market position through diverse product portfolios, strategically positioned R&D centers, consistent strategic development activities, and technological advancements. The companies have been adopting various organic and inorganic growth strategies, such as expansions, agreements & joint ventures, and new product launches & developments to increase their market share.
