According to Business Intelligence Insights "Global Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) Market is expected to grow from USD 175.2 billion in 2021 to USD 305.6 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.20% during the forecast period 2022-2030

Regional Analysis:

North America dominated the market with more than 35% of the market share

North America now dominates the active pharmaceutical ingredients industry and is anticipated to remain so for a few more years. Due to increased disease incidences and an aging population, this area is likely to enhance its market share in the future. In the North American region, the United States controls the majority of the market. The US government's recent political and trade policies, which include raising import tariffs and levies, are likely to drive up operational costs and put upward pricing pressure on manufacturers. To secure the availability of high-quality products to the US market, the FDA has increased the application fees for new medicine approvals and increased the number of periodic inspections done on various off-shore contract manufacturing facilities.

Segmentation Insights:

  • Branded

Branded category dominated the market with more than 60% of the market share

The market is divided into generic API and branded API categories. The active pharmaceutical ingredients market was dominated by branded APIs. Various firms are being pushed to launch unique pharmaceuticals in the market as a result of significant R&D initiatives focusing on the creation of various cost effective and innovative products. The expansion of therapeutic applications for novel generation of ingredients, such as high potency compounds and peptides, is expected to have a significant impact on the manufacture of branded API. Another important force expected to boost demand for branded APIs over the forecast period is the increasing rise of biotech and pharmaceutical companies around the world.

  • Synthetic
  • Biotech

Cloud-based category dominated the market with more than 55% of the market share
