The global bathroom and toilet assist devices market size was valued at USD 3.5 billion in 2016, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. Growth in the prevalence of chronic diseases, coupled with an aging population, is resulting in a rise in population with disabilities. This is primarily driving the market growth.
The global market has experienced swift growth over the past few years and is expected to maintain a steady pace owing to rising cases of disability, reduced mobility, and increasing healthcare spending capacity. Also, the rising number of manufacturers is positively supporting escalating demand for patient assist devices.
Aging demographics have created a demand for old-age homes and long-term care centers, both of which drive demand for bathroom and toilet to assist devices. Besides, rising disposable income and government support toward home healthcare are supporting market growth.
On the other hand, the longer product life cycle is primarily challenging the growth of the market. Also, the reusability of these devices is restraining revenue generation. However, growth in demand for these devices is predicted to lower the effect of the above-mentioned factors.
People with reduced mobility can face several challenges in bathrooms and bath lifts offer assistance as well as comfort to such individuals. The user-friendly design of such devices is likely to boost the segment to exhibit a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period. Bath lifts are segmented into fixed, reclining, and lying designs. Reclining devices are expected to be in more demand than others owing to the additional advantages they offer.
Commodes used in toilets may be movable or static and are available in plastic, metal, or other materials. These are also available with various features such as adjustable height and seating position. Commodes are covered under Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) as durable medical equipment when recommended by a doctor. This is a key factor propelling the bathroom and toilet assist devices market. Various types of toilets include close-coupled, back-to-wall, wall-hung, low-level, and high-level.
North America dominated the market in 2016 and is expected to retain its lead throughout the forecast period. The presence of well-defined regulatory guidelines and reimbursement policies for the treatment of patients with disabilities is boosting revenue generation in the region. Also, the high adoption of home healthcare and remote patient monitoring services is spurring revenue generation in North America.
Europe is the second-largest revenue-generating regional market after North America. The availability of highly advanced healthcare infrastructure and the adoption of superior technology inpatient care is driving growth. Besides, aging demographics of Europe are propelling demand for bathroom assist devices.
Growth in funding for personal assistance products and initiatives to increase awareness regarding bathroom and toilet assist tools are driving the market in the Asia Pacific. Regional market growth can also be attributed to the rising pool of patients with chronic diseases and requiring long-term hospitalization in developing countries such as China and India. As a result, Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period.
The global market is highly competitive. Key participants include ArjoHuntleigh; Medical Device Depot; Carex Health Brands; Juvo Solutions; Bischoff & Bischoff GmbH; Invacare Corporation; Prism Medical; Sunrise Medical LLC; and GF Health Products, Inc.
Key parameters affecting the competitive nature of the market include low entry and exit barriers and a relatively low investment requirement. Moreover, many players are offering a variety of services such as rental services and refurbishing of devices to maximize profit margins.
