Medical Polymer Market Dynamics

Drivers: Growth Of The Medical Industry

The medical industry has witnessed growth due to the rising global population and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the rising geriatric population due to improved medical care for the elderly is expected to propel innovations in the medical industry, which will promote its growth. Polymers, including polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and other engineering polymers, are increasingly being utilized in the manufacturing of medical devices. Various types of medical tests conducted by hospitals for diagnosis have also contributed to the increasing demand for medical components and acted as a driving force for the growth of the global medical industry. Medical polymers are used in the manufacturing of housings and other supporting components of medical devices due to their favorable properties such as chemical resistance, low weight, heat resistance, electrical insulation, sterilization temperature resistance, and impermeability. These polymers are used as a replacement for metals and help in reducing the overall weight of medical devices. Furthermore, Consumers are showing keen interest in purchasing various medical devices suitable for home healthcare settings to minimize hospital charges and reduce the threat of infection. Increasing utilization of home healthcare-related medical devices like oximeters, digital thermometers, and nebulizers by consumers is expected to result in augmenting the sales of medical polymers in the coming years.

Restraints: Stringent Government Regulations

Regulations are the critical factor influencing the medical device industry, which also affects the medical polymers market globally. Rising government focus on ensuring high-quality, safe, and effective medical devices is expected to positively impact the selection and properties of the polymer, thereby benefiting the medical polymers market over the forecast period. Medical devices and equipment such as syringes, IV bottles & bags, surgical instruments, disposables, diagnostic components, drug delivery devices, and implants are primarily manufactured using polymer materials. In Europe, medical devices cannot be placed in the market without ensuring that they comply with the safety specifications stipulated by the European Union. Strict regulations associated with product quality and marketing are likely to increase production costs and hamper small European medical device enterprises. This, in turn, is likely to restrain the growth of the medical polymers market over the forecast period. Furthermore, according to Eucomed, the recent European Medical Device Directive (MDD) is anticipated to hamper innovations and research activities in the region, which, in turn, is expected to hinder the growth of the medical polymers market over the forecast period. The regulations enforced by the governing agencies in key economies such as the U.S., China, Germany, and India limit the growth possibilities for polymers in the healthcare industry.

Opportunity: Biodegradable Polymers Use In Medical Application

Growing concerns regarding the disposal and impact of synthetic polymers have encouraged polymer manufacturers and medical industry bodies to consider and develop biodegradable polymers. In recent years, various functional biodegradable polymers have been designed that are suitable for use in drug delivery systems, tissue regeneration, and gene carriers. The primary factors promoting biodegradable polymers are biodegradation and non-toxicity. Biodegradable polymers can be eliminated metabolically from the body and reduce the need for post-surgical functions required to remove sutures. Due to this property, biodegradable polymers are witnessing growing adoption in therapeutic devices, including temporary implants and three-dimensional scaffolds for tissue engineering. The demand for ampoules has risen after the COVID-19 pandemic and they are expected to witness positive growth owing to increased vaccine rollout and its usage for storing medical chemicals. The disposal of ampoules is a significant challenge for the medical industry since they cannot be reused and disposed of after use. This can provide an opportunity for biodegradable polymers in ampoule manufacturing
