$8.3 Billion Forecast for Lateral Flow Immunoassay (LFIA) Based Rapid Test Market by 2029, Backed by Demand and Innovation
Discover trends, market shifts, and competitive outlooks for the lateral flow immunoassay (lfia) based rapid test industry through 2025-2034 with The Business Research Company’s reliable data and in-depth research
What Is the Estimated Market Size of the Lateral Flow Immunoassay (LFIA) Based Rapid Test Market In 2029?
In recent times, the market size of the lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based rapid test has witnessed a significant drop. It experienced a decrease from “$8.03 billion in 2024 to $7.23 billion in 2025, leading to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -9.9%. The reasons for this decline during the historical period include limited sensitivity and specificity, intricacies of multiplexing, issues with cross-reactivity, challenges related to storage and shelf-life, along with restricted quantitative capability.
The market size for rapid tests based on the lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is anticipated to witness consistent expansion in the upcoming years, with a projected growth to $8.3 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5%. The predicted reduction during this period can be ascribed to international supply chain interruptions, regulatory obstacles, heightened competition, the rise of substitutive technologies, and integration with digital health platforms. Key tendencies for this period involve the maturation of superior technologies for multiple or recurring LFIA based rapid exams and results storage/ communication, a focus on partnerships and alliances, home test kit development, investment in AI-based illness screening and detection tests, and the creation of affordable testing kits for easy patient access at a reduced cost.

What Are the Core Growth Drivers Propelling the Lateral Flow Immunoassay (LFIA) Based Rapid Test Market Forward?
The persistent problem of quality control is predicted to impede the growth of the rapid test market built on the platform of the lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). A rise in operational expenses, such as wages and investments in technology, have squeezed the profit margins of numerous law firms. For example, in June 2023, PLOS, an American non-profit organization, stated that LFIA products available in the market fail to consistently satisfy the high standards of reliability and specificity. An after-the-fact assessment of four LFIA tests uncovered diverse diagnostic results with some tests indicating as low as 47% precision in detecting IgG.
