GIA launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, market share, size and demand forecasts on the global Pipettes and Pipettors market. The global market for Pipettes and Pipettors is projected to reach US$1.4 billion by 2022, driven by the rising investments in life sciences R&D, increasing focus on improving lab throughputs, and innovations delivering improved ergonomics, accuracy and precision. 

Pipetting is a common task in research laboratories that transfers liquids in desired quantities from one vessel to another. Devices that serve this purpose are referred to as pipettes, which have remained workhorses of laboratories for several years finding use in routine and complex analysis across a wide range of industries. A major requirement of these tools is to dispense liquids accurately and precisely for achieving accurate experimental results. While the first pipettes were made of glass in which liquids were sucked through the mouth into the pipette bulb and subsequently transferred, changing work needs of laboratories over the years brought about a major transformation in pipette design, material, accuracy and precision. Modern pipetting tools either come in form of manual pipettes or electronic or motorized pipettes, and in glass or plastic materials, dispensing liquids in a range of volumes between mL and below 1 µL. Based on function and efficiency, pipette types ranging from basic transfer pipettes, pasteur pipettes, serological pipettes to advanced automated systems are used around the world, addressing myriad needs of end-users.

Technological advances continue to transform the global analytical instruments industry. Ergonomics is a key aspect of pipetting, since pipetting is a repetitive and stressful act and is associated with repetitive motion injuries. Advancements in the area of ergonomics have helped lower stress and fatigue for users. Reliability, accuracy and precision are vital aspects of pipettes to ensure efficient usage and to help researchers address complex analytical challenges. The need for higher accuracy and convenience has led to the development of single and multichannel mechanical pipettors along with disposable tips, while the need for speed, accuracy, control, and lower physical strain led to the development of electronic pipettors. Growing importance for precision and safety is driving demand for electronic pipettors. Additionally, use of ultra-micro volumes in laboratories and growing numbers of various tests such as PCR are driving their demand. Cost-effectiveness and technological improvements are driving the preference for plastic pipettes over glass pipettes.
