San Francisco, 12 April 2024: The Report Medical Injection Molding Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By System (Hot Runner, Cold Runner), By Material (Plastics, Metal), By Product (Patient Aids, Dental Products), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030

The global medical injection molding market size is anticipated to reach USD 33.28 billion by 2030 and it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is primarily driven by the escalating demand for high-quality and precision-molded components in the healthcare industry. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, coupled with a rising aging population, has amplified the need for advanced medical devices and equipment, thereby boosting the demand for injection-molded products.

Stringent regulatory requirements for safety and efficacy in medical devices have led to a growing preference for materials with superior biocompatibility and sterilization capabilities, further propelling the adoption of injection molding in the medical sector. Moreover, advancements in technology, such as the development of specialized polymers and innovative molding techniques, contribute to the market's expansion by enabling the production of complex and customized medical components. As the medical field continues to evolve, the market is expected to witness sustained growth driven by these factors.

According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, plastic meets the critical requirements for medical products, such as sterilization and chemical resistance. A large number of Chinese medical technology companies purchase injection molded products as well as molding tools from Europe. Companies associated with medical injection molded products need to follow ISO standards to ensure appropriate quality standards and adequate process management.

Plastics, including polyethylene, polyvinylchloride, polypropylene, and engineering plastics, are increasingly being utilized in the manufacturing of medical devices. The growth of the home healthcare sector on account of the low costs involved as compared to hospital care and intensive care has resulted in a rise in the demand for medical devices. Different types of medical tests conducted by hospitals for diagnosis have also contributed to the increasing demand for medical devices.
