Lab Mailers Market: An Overview
Lab mailers are simple casings which provide the packaged content protection against breakage during shipping and transit. Lab mailers are shippers which provide protection of refrigerated or frozen specimen under testing or analysis. They are designed such that they can withstand shocks, vibrations and tremors during transit and protect the specimen under primary packaging. Specimen containers such as ampules, vials, small bottles etc. can be packaged in these lab mailers. These mailers are reusable and made up of recyclable materials which makes them cost-effective.
Lab Mailers Market: Dynamics
The global lab mailers market is expected to witness high demand on the backdrop of rising health-related concerns across the globe. Rising concern among physicians and patients regarding infections and growing incidences of contamination of samples during transit have created a need for a systematic mailing solution. This is expected to fuel the growth of the global lab mailers market in the coming years. Polystyrene lab mailers are the most preferred lab mailers for packaging of non-hazardous blood, specimens, tissues and serums as polystyrene is light in weight and helps in reducing postage cost. Manufacturers also provide lab mailer kits which can accommodate multiple bottles and samples in a box. Lab mailer kits may consist of inserts, absorbent pads, plastic sheets and more. The increase in research & development activities along with trials & testing, is expected to provide remunerative opportunities for the growth of global lab mailers market during the forecast period. Key players operating in the lab mailers market are focusing on research and development activities to provide new packaging formats.
The lab mailers need to comply with the packaging standards laid by Department of Transportation (DOT), Transportation of Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR), International Air Transport Association (IATA), Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR), and several international shipping regulatory bodies. This makes manufacturing of lab mailers a complex procedure and might act as a barrier for players wanting to enter the lab mailers market. This has made the lab mailers market a highly consolidated market.
