Automated cell cultures involve the use of automated systems and robotics to carry out cell culture tasks such as seeding, feeding, and harvesting. These systems minimize manual labor, enhance reproducibility, and improve the scalability of cell culture processes. Automation helps maintain sterile conditions and ensures consistent results.
The main types of automated cell cultures are modular automation and whole-system automation. Modular automation involves using integrated, pre- or post-analytical automation modules in laboratories to streamline workflows and boost efficiency. Equipment types include automated liquid handling systems, microplate readers, robotic systems, and automated storage and retrieval systems. Applications of automated cell cultures span biopharmaceutical production, diagnostics, gene therapy, drug screening and development, toxicity testing, stem cell research, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, and personalized medicine. End users include pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, hospital and diagnostic laboratories, research institutes, and cell banks.

This automated cell cultures 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 automated cell cultures market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $6.33 billion in 2024 to $7.02 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising demand for high-throughput cell lines in drug discovery research, increasing investments in biopharmaceuticals and vaccine development, growing focus on stem cell research and development across various sectors, expanding applications of automated systems in laboratories to enhance efficiency and growing awareness of the benefits of automation in reducing human error and contamination.
The automated cell cultures market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.49 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing number of clinical trials and research activities globally, the growing need for customized medications and personalized therapies, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases leading to higher demand for diagnostic tools, technological advancements in cell culture systems enhancing productivity and quality and increased government funding for cell-based research and biotechnology initiatives. Major trends in the forecast period include a shift towards modular automation solutions for flexibility in laboratory settings, the development of novel 3d cell culture techniques for improved cell behavior studies, the integration of artificial intelligence in automated cell culture processes, growing emphasis on sustainability and eco-friendly practices in cell culture technologies and expansion of automated systems in emerging markets due to rising healthcare investments.
The rising production of biopharmaceuticals is expected to drive the growth of the automated cell cultures market. Biopharmaceuticals, produced through biotechnology methods such as recombinant DNA technology and cell culture techniques, offer targeted and effective treatments with fewer side effects compared to traditional therapies. The increasing demand for these drugs is boosting the need for automated cell culture systems, which enhance the efficiency and consistency of biopharmaceutical production by streamlining cell growth, monitoring, and harvesting processes. For instance, the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) reported in June 2023 that the total biopharmaceutical production in Europe reached $384.2 billion (€340 billion) in 2022, up about 4.95% from $366.3 billion (€324 billion) in 2021. This growth in biopharmaceutical production is fueling the demand for automated cell cultures.
Leading companies in the automated cell cultures market are focusing on technological advancements, such as AI-powered software, to gain a competitive edge. AI-integrated software in automated cell culture systems optimizes experimental conditions and enhances efficiency by analyzing real-time data to improve cell growth and productivity.
