Trends in miniature and portability leading to new housing and pharmaceutical implants requirements. Globally smoothness and sanitation remain a major focus, and devices are required to resist a variety of chemicals and techniques for sterilization. In order to meet the safety, manufacturing, features and functional requirements of health products, the current market trend towards increasing safety and quality at reasonable cost has urged medical industries to select biocompatible materials, clean and environmentally compatible.
The use of a single-use device is the solution in orthopedics and the latest trend. This can lead to a reduction in the cost of plastic materials in the sector. But the desired mechanical properties, biodegradability, sterilization and radiopacificity of used materials are still concerned and must be examined in detail.
Application Segment
Medical plastic by application is divided into medical components, wound care, cleanroom supplies, biopharm devices, mobility aids, tooth implants. Wherein, medical components segment is accounts for major revenue share which is approximately over 35% of the total market share in 2019.
The demand is expected to increase the scope of applications of polypropylene in diagnostic appliances, panels, containers, syringes, implant testing, or medical sheets. Due to its lightweight, high bacterial and chemical resistance and low cost, polypropylene is expected to grow significantly in the application of medical ingredients. It is wide-ranging in the manufacture of medical devices. Also, it can easily be molded in the perfect size as required and therefore has a high demand for syringes.
Type Segment
Based on the type, the market is segmented into engineering plastics, HPP, standard plastics, silicone, and others. Engineering plastics provide numerous advantages over standard plastics, such as good malting, faster production time, low weight, high impact strength, flame, shock and chemicals and improved friction reduction. The large market size of this segment is responsible for improving standards and regulations that require high quality plastics used in medical applications. Furthermore, the growing use of engineering plastics in robot support, AI-driven procedures and 3D implant printing and prothesis are leading to the application of technical plastics.
The North America region captured more than 30% of the overall market in 2019 and it is projected to keep its position during the forecast years from 2018 to 2028. However, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to gather the highest growth over the forecast years. The market growth in this region is mostly ascribed to the growing need for increased efficiency and demand in this region.
The key players of the global medical plastics market are BASF SE, SABIC, Evonik Industries, Celanese Corporation; Solvay AG and Covestro, Eastman Chemical Company; and Dow Inc.
