Peptide synthesis is the laboratory process of producing peptides, which are short chains of amino acids linked together by chemical bonds. These synthesized peptides find various applications in research, drug development, and medical diagnostics, particularly for generating precise sequences that mimic epitopes within specific protein domains.
The primary types of products and services involved in peptide synthesis include reagents, equipment, and services. Reagents in peptide synthesis are chemical compounds or substances used in the creation of peptides. Various technologies are employed in this process, including solid-phase peptide synthesis, solution-phase peptide synthesis, and hybrid and recombinant technology. These products and services are utilized by several end-users, including pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, contract manufacturing and development organizations (CDMOs) and contract research organizations (CROs), as well as academic and research institutes.

This peptide synthesis market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The peptide synthesis market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.69 billion in 2024 to $6.19 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise in peptide-based vaccines, growth in biotechnology and biopharmaceuticals, demand for high-purity peptides, regulatory approvals and standardization.
The peptide synthesis market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.9 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rapid growth in therapeutic peptides, increasing demand for customized peptides, growing role in drug discovery and development, focus on peptide libraries for screening. Major trends in the forecast period include development of peptide mimetics, adoption of novel amino acid derivatives, peptide cyclization techniques, innovations in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPs), utilization of click chemistry.
The rising prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to drive the growth of the peptide synthesis market moving forward. Chronic diseases are long-term health conditions or non-communicable diseases (NCDs) that persist over extended periods and often develop gradually. Peptide synthesis plays a key role in addressing chronic diseases, as certain peptides possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that may help prevent conditions such as cardiovascular diseases. By targeting specific cellular processes and signaling pathways, peptides offer new therapeutic and management options for chronic diseases. For example, in June 2024, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, a government agency based in Australia, reported that in 2022, the age-standardized death rate due to chronic conditions was 490 per 100,000 people, an increase from 459 per 100,000 in 2021. As a result, the growing incidence of chronic diseases is driving the expansion of the peptide synthesis market.
The growth in healthcare expenditure is anticipated to accelerate the development of the peptide synthesis market. Healthcare expenditure is a broad measure that encompasses the financial resources allocated to healthcare services, medical treatments, public health programs, and the overall healthcare system. The high costs associated with peptide molecules in the pharmaceutical and nutrition sectors are attributed to their therapeutic potential, specificity, and low toxicity. For instance, in December 2023, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, a US-based federal agency, U.S. healthcare spending increased by 4.1% in 2022, totaling $4.5 trillion, surpassing the 3.2% increase seen in 2021. Therefore, the rise in healthcare expenditure is propelling the growth of the peptide synthesis market.
Major companies in the peptide synthesis market are strategically focusing on introducing advanced peptide synthesizers to gain a competitive edge. Notably, Gyros Protein Technologies launched the PurePep Sonata+ peptide synthesizer in March 2022, offering enhanced efficiency, speed, and accuracy compared to traditional synthesizers. This innovative technology incorporates real-time flow monitoring, ensuring precise and accurate fluid transfers across a diverse range of viscosities.
In May 2023, Biosynth International, Inc., a Swiss-based chemical manufacturing company, acquired Cambridge Research Biochemicals to strengthen its peptide division. This acquisition brings CRB's expertise in intricate peptide chemistry and fluorescent dye labeling, enhancing Biosynth's capabilities in the peptide synthesis market.
