 U.S. Medical Plastic market size and growth rate, 2024 - 2030

According to the latest U.S. census, 16.8% of the U.S. population is over the age of 65 years and this number is anticipated to reach 74 million by 2030. People aged over 85 need the most care and their population is growing rapidly. In March 2021, the U.S. President, Joe Biden, proposed spending USD 400 billion on Medicaid over eight years to fund at-home care for elderly and disabled people as well as increase the wages of caregivers.

In the U.S., the frequent increment in costs and reduced margins have severely impacted healthcare providers and health plans. This compelled the government to ensure a significant transformation of healthcare funding and insurance coverage segments in the country through the introduction of ACA and Medicaid.

The COVID-19 pandemic has made in-home care more appealing than nursing home facilities as home care reduces healthcare costs and is more convenient for patients. According to Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission (MACPAC), it costs about USD 26,000 a year for home care compared to USD 90,000 a year for a nursing home. Increasing investment in healthcare by the government and rising preference for home care are expected to drive the medical plastics market in the U.S. over the forecast period.

The presence of key manufacturers such as Dow, Inc., Eastman Chemical Co., and DuPont can be regarded as one of the major factors driving the market for medical plastics in the country.

The emerging countries manufactured PPE, face masks, and gloves, whereas, developed countries manufactured technology-intensive equipment such as MRI scanners and mechanical ventilators. Hence, the demand for the aforementioned equipment was rising during the pandemic, which in turn is expected to drive the segment’s growth.

Global Medical Plastic market share and size, 2023

Medical device packaging is necessary for medical devices to retain their characteristics and performance during product shelf life. Packaging protects the devices from physical damage, biological contamination, external disturbance, and humans, and keeps the device sterile before it is being used in hospitals and other end-use applications. Proper packaging ensures the identification of the device through labeling.

Medical plastics used for orthopedic implant packaging should be compatible with multiple sterilization methods, excellent puncture and abrasion resistance. Packaging is very crucial when it comes to orthopedic implants such as knee, hip, spine, and thumb as these implants should be protected from physical damage and biological contamination before their use. Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and polyethylene are commonly used for orthopedic implant packaging. UFP MedTech introduced FlexShield TPU and cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) for orthopedic packaging. Both are gamma and ETO sterilization compatible and provide abrasion and puncture resistance.

Orthopedic soft goods have a growing demand because of the aging population in developed countries such as Europe, the U.S., and Japan. In addition, the growing fitness and sports industries in emerging economies such as India are going to drive the market over the forecast period. The consumers include all age groups, be it senior citizens, young adults, or teens, as soft goods help with joint pain resulting from disease, occupational, or sports-related injuries. Orthopedic soft goods include rehabilitation aids, knee braces and support, wrist and wrist-thumb support, back support brace, ankle supports, elbow straps, abdominal binders, rib belts, hernia supports, and cervical collars. Besides, they are used in injuries caused by fractures, muscle pain, and other orthopedic issues.
