Hollow fiber filtration is a membrane filtration technique that employs bundles of narrow, flexible tubes (hollow fibers) to separate components in a fluid. It is widely used for water purification, medical applications, and bioprocessing due to its high surface area and efficient separation capabilities.
The main membrane materials for hollow fiber filtration include polysulfone (PS), mixed cellulose ester, polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF), polyethersulfone (PES), and others. Polysulfone is a thermoplastic polymer known for its high thermal and chemical resistance, commonly used in membrane filtration applications. The technology encompasses microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and other filtration methods. It is applied in various processes such as protein concentration and diafiltration, cell culture harvest and clarification, virus or viral vector filtration, and raw material filtration. These applications serve industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food and beverages, water and wastewater treatment, and others.

This hollow fiber filtration market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The hollow fiber filtration market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.54 billion in 2023 to $0.64 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing emphasis on patient safety and infection control, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, regulatory requirements concerning medication preparation and administration, growth in healthcare infrastructure, and increased healthcare spending globally.
The hollow fiber filtration market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.23 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to a growing preference for single-use medical devices to minimize contamination risks, the modernization of healthcare facilities, a rising aging population, heightened focus on infection control measures, and an increasing trend towards home-based healthcare services. Major trends in the forecast period include the integration of smart features, an emphasis on sustainability in medical device manufacturing, innovation in safety features such as needlestick prevention mechanisms and ergonomic designs, the integration of remote monitoring capabilities into filter needle devices, and the integration of advanced technologies such as automation and connectivity.
The growth of the hollow fiber filtration market is expected to be propelled by the expanding pharmaceutical industry in the future. This industry encompasses activities related to researching, developing, producing, and marketing medications and other healthcare products. The pharmaceutical sector's growth is driven by increased healthcare demand, technological advancements, and global market expansion. Hollow fiber filtration plays a crucial role in efficiently separating and purifying biomolecules such as proteins and antibodies during drug manufacturing processes within the pharmaceutical industry. For example, according to the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations, the pharmaceutical market's value at ex-factory prices increased to €275 billion in 2022 from €236.5 billion in 2020, with research and development spending rising to €44.5 billion in 2022 compared to €39.4 billion in 2020. Hence, the growth of the pharmaceutical industry is propelling the hollow fiber filtration market's growth.
Key players in the hollow fiber filtration market concentrate on developing advanced high-strength hollow fiber membrane technology to improve filtration efficiency and durability. This technology, utilized in hollow fiber filtration, efficiently separates contaminants from fluid streams through a porous membrane structure, ensuring effective filtration and purification. For instance, Toray Industries Inc. introduced a hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane module in November 2021 for applications in food and beverage manufacturing and biotechnology purification and concentration processes. This module significantly reduces energy consumption and advances carbon neutrality, achieving over an 80% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to traditional thermal concentration methods in the food production sector. It is highly effective in steam (125°C) and hot water (90°C) settings, facilitating thermal sterilization and high-temperature filtration.
In September 2023, NSI Mobile Water Solutions acquired Pall Corporation, representing a significant step forward in NSI Mobile Water Solutions' growth and enhancing its position in the industrial water market segment in Europe. Pall Corporation, a provider of hollow fiber membrane systems, complements NSI Mobile Water Solutions' modern range of water and wastewater treatment technologies.
