The global medical plastics market size was valued at USD 26.7 billion in 2020 and is projected to expand at USD 44.6 billion by 2027 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9% from 2020 to 2027. Enforcement and upgrading of various infection prevention standards coupled with a growing volume of surgical, hospital, and outpatient procedures are anticipated to drive the market growth. Fluctuation in oil prices has been a major factor responsible for volatility in the prices of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene. Capacity expansion and contraction have also contributed to price volatility in the market. In addition, rising overproduction in the Chinese market is expected to impact the raw material price.

There is an ascending demand for plastic since it is a key ingredient used for manufacturing medical devices, equipment, and packaging. This has resulted in the steady market growth over the past few years. Factors such as increasing demand for medical devices, growing aging population, and expanding home healthcare sector in North America and Europe are anticipated to drive the demand for medical-grade polymers over the forecast period.

Medical plastics is overcoming the challenge of incompatibility of certain conventional medication to cure various diseases. Targeted drug delivery and controlled release of polymers in complex areas such as brain to release drugs effectively treats Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, brain cancer, and other abnormalities. Cost-effective medical plastics have paved their way into the production of disposable devices such as syringes, inhalation masks, catheters, and other surgical tools. As an alternative to other raw materials, these plastics offer greater safety and antimicrobial functioning. Thereby medical plastics market acquires huge demand from healthcare sector owing to decontamination and secured containment of diagnostic samples. Internal implants for spine cages and knee bones made possible through enhanced medical plastics: the polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polymer. Better compatibility with bones and extensive load bearing capability of PEEK polymer have paved way in various medical implants fuelling high demand for the global medical plastics market. Medical plastics is widely used in packaging industries for layering various medical tools, devices, drugs, and instruments such as the polypropylene sheet. This maintains safety against the hospital-acquired infections and reduces any widespread incidence of health risk both to the patients and medical expertise.

Some of the prominent players in the field of global medical plastic market are Exxon Mobil Corporation (US), BASF SE (Germany), DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (US), Evonik Industries AG (Germany), Celanese Corporation (US), Covestro AG (Germany), Solvay (Belgium), The Lubrizol Corporation (US), Rochling Group (Germany), Tekni-Plex (US), Eastman Chemical Company (US), Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics (France), Trinseo (US), Ensinger (Germany), and Fortune Medical Plastic Products Company (China).

Analyst Commentary

Medical plastics are regulated by numerous agencies across the globe. In Europe, medical devices fall under the EU Council Directive (93/42/EEC), which provides guidance for their consumption. Restructuring of the European regulations for such devices is anticipated to emerge as one of the key factors affecting the regional market growth. The market is subject to multiple technological advancements pertaining to the production of advanced plastics for use in the healthcare industry. The companies in the market resort to new product developments as one of the major strategies to achieve market growth. In addition, the key players invest significantly towards R&D to develop advanced products.

High degree of competition in the industry is likely to bolster consumer buying power. Factors such as product quality and cost competitiveness are the major factors impacting the buyer power decision. High production volumes coupled with the ease of availability of medical plastics is expected to be the increase buyer power in the next few years. The governing agencies in the states in the U.S. have exhibited an increased affinity towards recycling the plastics.

The growing number of insured individuals in the U.S., coupled with the resultant demand for medical devices, is expected to have a positive impact on industry growth over the forecast years. In addition, the market is characterized by the presence of a large number of companies involved in the production of advanced grade plastics for use in the industry. The medical plastics market is characterized by extensive integration through various stages of the value chain. HELM AG is integrated across all four stages in the value chain from raw material production to plastic production and the manufacturing of end-use products used by the hospitals and healthcare institutions including private clinics.

The recent outbreak of COVID-19 across the globe is further fuelling the demand for medical components such as masks, gloves, testing equipment, and ventilators. This, in turn, is positively propelling market growth. Increasing number of positive cases in countries, such as the U.S., Italy, Spain, France, Germany, the U.K., and Iran, are triggering the demand for medical components, thereby creating lucrative growth opportunities.

Segmentation

Medical components segment accounts for the largest revenue share of over 35% in 2019. Growing application scope of polypropylene in manufacturing diagnostic devices, trays, pans, containers, syringes, implant trials, and medical cover sheets is expected to drive the demand. Polypropylene is expected to witness substantial growth in medical components application owing to its lightweight, high bacterial and chemical resistance, and low cost. It finds wide application scope in medical disposable manufacturing. Furthermore, it can be moulded easily in perfect dimensions as needed and thus has a high demand for manufacturing syringes.

In Europe, PVC is primarily used in the manufacturing of blood storage bags. European Pharmacopoeia has approved the use of PVC for this particular purpose owing to its property to help store blood in a safe condition over a longer duration. Increasing cases of people affected by COVID-19 across the world are creating a huge demand for medical plastics in medical component applications such as testing equipment, ventilators, syringes, and medical trays. In addition, increasing the production capacity of these medical components by several companies, such as 3M, Medtronic Plc, and others, is further creating lucrative growth opportunities.

Regional Analysis

North America accounted for the largest revenue share of over 30% in 2019 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. With the rising per capita health expenditure in the U.S., the demand for medical devices is expected to increase significantly in the forthcoming years. This is likely to boost regional product demand. Furthermore, the presence of key manufacturers such as Dow Inc.; DuPont; Celanese Corporation; and Eastman Chemical Co. in the region is expected to positively impact the overall market growth over the forecast period.

Rising product demand in pharmaceutical packaging applications and rapid growth of pharmaceutical industries in Mexico and Canada are further expected to drive the regional market growth. For instance, the elimination of stringent regulations by the Mexican government, which had earlier restricted the establishment of new manufacturing units, has resulted in the development of new pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities of major companies such as Takeda and Astellas in Mexico. This strategy has played an important role in driving the domestic pharmaceutical industry, which, in turn, is likely to fuel the demand for medical plastics in the forthcoming years. In addition, rapidly rising COVID-19 positive cases in the region are expected to result in an increased demand for generic drugs and medical devices, thereby positively influencing the market growth.
