Lonza Group, Catalent, and Recipharm Lead the $12.5 Billion Inhaled Drugs Contract Manufacturing Market, 2025-2033: Insights by Service, Product, End-Use and Region - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Inhaled Drugs Contract Manufacturing Market Forecast to 2033" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global inhaled drugs contract manufacturing market is experiencing significant growth, with its size projected to increase from USD 5.47 billion in 2024 to USD 12.56 billion by 2033. The market is set to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.82% from 2025 to 2033. This expansion is primarily driven by an increasing prevalence of respiratory disorders such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The demand for effective and targeted therapeutic options is consequently rising.

The heightened clinical need, along with the adoption of advanced inhalation therapies, is prompting pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies to outsource drug development and manufacturing to specialized contract manufacturers. This strategic outsourcing is crucial to the growth of the inhaled drugs contract manufacturing industry.

As the patient population struggling with chronic respiratory conditions like asthma and COPD continues to grow, the demand for effective inhalation therapies-including dry powder inhalers (DPIs), metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), and nebulizers-is accelerating. The development of these therapies demands specialized expertise in areas such as formulation, particle size optimization, and device compatibility. Consequently, pharmaceutical companies are forming partnerships with contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) to leverage their advanced infrastructure and regulatory experience. This collaboration supports faster development timelines and reduces capital expenditure, thus bolstering the market expansion.

The need for cost optimization and operational efficiency is further propelling the demand for contract manufacturing services. High capital investments are required for inhaled drug manufacturing, involving device integration, cleanroom facilities, and aerosol testing. Outsourcing to CDMOs, which possess comprehensive capabilities, allows drug developers to lessen capital expenditure while hastening time-to-market. Outsourcing also enables pharmaceutical companies to concentrate on their core competencies like research and marketing, while contract manufacturers secure long-term partnerships and steady production contracts, contributing to sustained market growth.
