US Hospital Consumables Market Size to be Worth USD 53.24 Billion by 2025

The U.S. hospital consumables market size is anticipated to reach USD 53.24 billion by 2025, experiencing a CAGR of 5.6 percent. Rising number of surgeries and prevalence of chronic diseases, coupled with expanding geriatric population in the U.S., is promoting the growth of the market. Geriatric population in the U.S. accounts for a significant share in the overall population of the country. As per a report in 2018 by World Bank, the global population aged 60 years and above was 15.4 percent of the total population in 2017 in comparison with 12.9 percent in 2010. Aging makes a person more susceptible to cardiovascular, urological, and neurological diseases, among others. People suffering from these conditions often require surgical interventions. Thus, increasing elderly population is projected to provide an upthrust to the U.S. market. Based on product, the segments reviewed in the report include medical gloves, medical gauze, disposable syringes, catheters, non-woven disposable products, glucometer strips, IV solutions, and general procedure trays.

The non-woven medical disposables segment represented over 29.0 percent of the overall revenue in 2017. Non-woven disposables are either made from natural fibers, such as cotton and linen, or synthetic fibers such as polypropylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyester. These fabrics protect patients and medical professionals from hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). General procedure trays are poised to be the most promising product segment. These trays consist of specific tools and instruments used in surgical and diagnostic procedures related to cardiovascular, orthopedics, ophthalmic, and dental procedures, among others. Procedure kits can effectively reduce waste generation in hospitals. Moreover, custom kits can also reduce time required for specific surgeries, leading to a greater number of surgeries being performed in lesser time. The U.S. hospital consumables market consists of a large number of players manufacturing several products. Some of the players operating in this space are McKesson Medical-Surgical Inc.; Medline Industries, Inc.; B. Braun Melsungen A.G.; Terumo Medical Corporation; Owens and Minor; Smith And Nephew, Inc.; Cardinal Health; and 3M.
