China:

Mindray Poised to Surpass Another Imported Brand, China-Made Replacement Enters the Second Phase


The development of China's IVD industry is still continuing the core theme of "import substitution."


Chemiluminescence is the largest细分market in IVD, and Mindray is the leading Chinese-produced brand in this field.From agency to self-research, from low-end to mid-to-high-end, from homogenized internal competition to becoming an industry leader...Over the past 20 years, leading Chinese companies like Mindray have increased their independent research and development efforts, writing an epic of domestically produced alternatives.


2023 is a critical turning point.


Mindray's IVD business revenue reached 12.4 billion yuan. According to Medical Industry Observation data, Mindray's domestic chemiluminescence revenue is estimated at 3 billion yuan, surpassing the "Big Four" for the first time in China and ranking fourth. The logic of China-produced substitution is gradually being realized.


The momentum is accelerating.


At a recent investor relations conference,Mindray Reveals That According to Company Statistics, the Domestic Market Share of Its Chemiluminescence Business Is Expected to Surpass Another Imported Brand This Year.


This statement is true. In the first half of 2024, according to the disclosed data on biochemical analyzer brands and amounts compiled by MDCLOUD (Medical Device Data Cloud), in May 2024, Mindray surpassed Beckman to rank first, with market shares of 47.13% and 16.05%, respectively, showing a significantly widening gap.


Mindray Further Emerges in the Latest Landscape of China's Top-Tier IVD Market.


Not only in the chemiluminescence sector, but also in the previously "dominant area" of TOP foreign enterprises, such as the IVD high-end field assembly line track,The first half of 2024In terms of the number of publicly signed contracts in the Chinese market, Mindray ranks 1st, Getein ranks 2nd, Roche ranks 3rd, Beckman Coulter ranks 4th, and YHLO ranks 5th; Abbott Diagnostics ranks 12th, and Siemens Healthineers ranks 13th.

In the future, the same story will continue to unfold in other细分fields of IVD.


And when the story of Chinese domestic substitution reaches a certain stage, the next focus will be on how to leverage China's technological and industrial chain advantages to gradually expand into other IVD fields, while simultaneously advancing globally to compete with the aforementioned giants on the world stage.
