Centrifugation (intermittent and continuous flow centrifugation) is expected to conquer the market with 58.2% of the market share in 2025. Continuous flow centrifugation is mainly preferred in large-scale blood processing laboratories owing to its capability of using blood on a continuous basis, thus reducing the risks of taking blood samples for very sick patients.
In March 2025, Thermo Fisher Scientific introduced the Cryofuge, BIOS, and LYNX centrifuges, featuring sustainable GreenCool Technology with natural refrigerants. These models offer up to 15% energy savings, comply with EU and U.S. regulations, and maintain high performance in applications like blood banking and bioprocessing.
The devices which consist of the advanced plasma exchange machines that either use centrifugation or membrane filtration in conjunction with computer control systems are predicted to take the largest share of the market with an estimated 44.3% in 2025. The combination of technology and innovation minimizes human error and improves outcomes of the procedure, thereby making these devices very attractive to medical practitioners.
The upsurge in the number of cases of diseases that can be treated through therapeutic plasma exchange and the increase in the number of treatments, in turn, have been the factors of high demand for long-lasting, high-quality devices.
Neurological disorders like Guillain–Barre syndrome and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) are expected to hold the largest market share at 32.8% in 2025. Plasma exchange therapy is especially useful for diseases like myasthenia gravis, multiple sclerosis, and neuromyelitis optica as it cleanses the blood of the harmful autoantibodies and the mediators of inflammation that are involved in the disease process.
The growing acceptance of plasma exchange as a leading or supportive treatment for these neurology disorders has broadened its clinical usage and assimilation. The state-of-the-art research is constantly uncovering the advantages of plasma exchange in both stabilizing and improving neurological function, thus boosting doctor’s encouragement in recommending this treatment.

Asia Pacific is forecasted to show the highest growth rate in the market with a share of 24.4% in 2025 mainly due to the increasing healthcare spending, the rise in the number of autoimmune and blood diseases, and the growing demand for advanced therapies in developing markets like China and India.
Government measures aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and encouraging the local production of medical devices contribute to the growth of the market. The presence of more companies like Terumo BCT, Fresenius Medical Care among others, including local companies, allows for the quick adoption of technology.
The therapeutic plasma exchange market of the U.S. is still in the lead because of its outstanding healthcare system, comprehensive clinical research efforts, and approved reimbursement policies. Major companies such as Baxter International, Terumo Corporation, and Haemonetics Corporation have their major operations in this region, hence, pushing the innovation in plasma exchange technologies. The strong emphasis on research and development as well as the regulatory support from agencies like the FDA allows for the swift introduction of new devices and treatments in the market.
In October 2024, Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies (Terumo BCT), a global leader in blood management solutions, launched the Reveos Automated Blood Processing System in the U.S. Already used in over 50 countries, Reveos aims to improve efficiency and address platelet shortages by automating whole blood processing.
Germany's therapeutic plasma exchange market is supported by a high-class healthcare ecosystem and large-scale government investments for disease cure programs. Besides being a home to major firms like Fresenius Medical Care and B. Braun Melsungen, the country is also significantly contributing to product development and production for the overall market. In Germany, the strong clinical infrastructure that helps in the treatment of patients with chronic autoimmune diseases, via plasma exchange, leads to high adoption of the therapy.
In June 2021, GEA, a global leader in systems and components for the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries based in Düsseldorf, Germany, introduced the hycon separator, revolutionizing blood plasma fractionation. This fully automatic clarifier enables "one-touch production" and is designed for cleanroom applications.
Japan is still the leader in the market when it comes to technology and is the most advanced market in terms of quality and innovation in plasma exchange therapies. Among the companies that have played a major role in the development and supply of state-of-the-art plasma exchange devices are Terumo Corporation and Asahi Kasei. These three factors the growing old population, high prevalence of related diseases and thus the steady demand, high-quality medical technology and healthcare reimbursement policies, and government support in the area, all support Japan's dominance in the region.
In August 2025, Japan's Sumitomo Heavy Industries (SHI) developed a groundbreaking low-temperature plasma method for manufacturing a key layer in perovskite solar cells. The new process, known as Reactive Plasma Deposition (RPD), allows for the mass production of the electron transport layer (ETL) with minimal substrate damage, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional high-temperature methods.
The therapeutic plasma exchange market in India is rapidly developing mainly because of the improvements in healthcare infrastructure, patient and professional awareness about the procedure and the government policy of making healthcare affordable by increasing insurance coverage thus allowing people to access even the complex therapies. Global companies like Baxter and Terumo, along with local companies, are all investing in different areas such as the expansion of the distribution networks and training programs for the plasma exchange procedures.
In January 2025, the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIIT-A) developed a low-cost device to separate blood plasma in minutes. Priced around INR 1,000, the device uses hydrodynamic techniques and micro-channels for efficient separation of blood components, providing a cost-effective alternative to traditional plasma separation machines.

The global rise in the occurrence of autoimmune and neurological diseases is a major factor pushing the adoption of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) treatments. Some of the diseases that require plasma exchange as a major treatment method to cleanse the blood of the pathogenic autoantibodies and inflammatory mediators are multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, Guillain-Barré syndrome and several other autoimmune neuropathies. Increasing awareness and better diagnostics are leading to the recognition of a larger patient population which in turn is driving the TPE procedure uptake.
In March 2024, a major study by The Lancet Neurology revealed that over 3 billion people globally were living with neurological conditions, making them the leading cause of illness and disability worldwide. The study, supported by the World Health Organization (WHO), also highlighted that more than 80% of neurological deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries, where access to treatment is limited. Conditions like stroke, dementia, and migraine are major contributors to health loss, with diabetic neuropathy seeing the fastest growth.
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation in TPE systems has been envisaged as a major driver for the growth of the global market for therapeutic plasma exchanges. Manual operations are often heavily relied upon in traditional plasma exchange which can lead to longer processing times, variability in outcomes, and increased risk of human error. AI infusion devices are able to bring the entire procedure to an optimum level through real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and adaptive control mechanisms that make precision and efficiency better. Furthermore, the entire procedure becomes less reliant on skilled technicians, resulting in a reduction of operational costs and an increase in patient throughput in the clinic as a whole due to increasing automation.
For Example, Cytiva, a global leader in life sciences and bioprocessing, introduced the Sepax C-Pro Cell Processing Instrument, designed to automate and streamline multiple cell therapy operations. This system integrates protocol software and kits to support processes like enrichment, concentration, and washing, offering a flexible, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)-compliant solution
