The size of the Europe mass spectrometry market was valued at USD 1.79 billion in 2024. This market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2025 to 2033 and be worth USD 3.13 billion by 2033 from USD 1.90 billion in 2025.
With around one-fifth of the mass spectrometry market comprised of pharmaceutical and biotechnology products, increasing investments in R&D and Technological advancements in mass spectrometers are expected to contribute to the market's growth.
One of the significant drivers of the European mass spectrometry market is the increase in strict regulations related to the environment, food, and drug quality. Additionally, the demand for life science applications has led to improved MS technologies and the rapid growth of new types of instruments. MS has offered several advantages in the field of proteomics due to technological advancements and the irreproachable need for high analytical precision, accuracy, and a wide dynamic range of targeted proteomics.
R&D spending by pharmaceutical companies has increased significantly over the past two decades, and the EU Industrial R&D Investment Scoreboard estimates that the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector accounted for 19.5% of total global R&D spending. Mass spectrometry plays a key role in the pharmaceutical industry, from the early stages of drug discovery to later stages of development and clinical trials. Hence, increased funding in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is expected to drive market growth.
The high demand and demands of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are also the main driver of recent mass spectrometry technology advances. In recent years, mass spectrometry has also gained wide recognition as a rapid and selective technique for analyzing and evaluating a wide range of food products.
The substantial growth of the mass spectrometry industry has resulted in an increasing demand for technicians with EM experience. Despite the advantages offered by mass spectrometry techniques, regardless of technological innovations, the availability of skilled labor remains an issue, as the technology is complex. This leads to the need for new paradigms for computing data and extracting knowledge. Many bioinformatics tools have appeared on the market in recent years, which support data analysis and interpretation, as this is specific to each type of instrument. The high maintenance cost of mass spectroscopy equipment is expected to hamper the growth rate of the market.
