Top Emerging Trends Of Medical Injection Molding Market Progress Forecast 2027Posted by Mrudula Anil Karmarkar on April 21st, 2021 The global medical injection molding market size is expected to reach USD 2.59 billion by 2027 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 8.2%, over the forecast period. Increasing demand for medical products and devices owing to the COVID-19 pandemic is anticipated to drive the market. With Covid-19 infections rising globally, the apprehension regarding a shortage of essential life-saving devices and other essential medical supplies in order to prevent the spread of this pandemic and provide optimum care to the infected also widens. In addition, till a pharmacological treatment is developed, ventilators act as a vital treatment preference for the COVID-19 patients, who may require critical care. Moreover, there is an urgent need for a rapid acceleration in the manufacturing process for a wide range of test-kits (antibody tests, self-administered, and others). The report will account for Covid19 as a key market contributor. Medical injection molding incorporates the assembling of medical devices and components utilizing medical-grade plastic materials that are reliable, durable, and comply with the FDA guidelines. The medical injection molding procedure is cost-effective, is used in applications requiring consistency, and perfect for high-volume production runs & tight resistances. Increasing penetration of injection-molded plastic products in healthcare is one of the key factors driving the market. Plastic does not rust or corrode like metal, it is lightweight as opposed to other materials, and it can be molded into complex shapes, sizes, and patterns. These factors are driving the demand for plastics in the manufacturing of healthcare products. An increase in the availability of cost-effective medical-grade plastics, growing access to healthcare supplies across the globe, and demand for medical devices are expected to boost the market growth. Plastics have also replaced glass in several laboratory consumables, improving laboratory safety and reducing consumables cost. Medical Injection Molding Market Report Highlights
The aforementioned factors are expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the medical injection molding market over the forecast period. The plastic injection molding process is used for manufacturing implantable components, test tubes, beakers, casings & housings for laboratory & medical equipment, drug delivery components & equipment, and surgical equipment. Rising demand for medical devices across hospitals and laboratories during the COVID-19 pandemic is anticipated to have a positive impact on market growth. Factors, such as ISO certifications & compliance, FDA regulations, material properties, suitability in extreme conditions, and durability are taken into consideration during the manufacturing process. Materials such as silicone, polycarbonate, polyethylene, and polypropylene, are widely used in the medical injection molding process. It is one of the primary processes that many companies adopt to manufacture medical products by using plastic as well as metal materials. The hot runner system held the largest market share of over 55% in 2020 and is expected to exhibit the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. Hot sprinter molds consist of two plates, which are heated using a complex framework. This framework maintains the temperature of liquid thermoplastics at the same level as their warming chamber. As a result, the demand for the hot runner system is high. Have a Query?
