The global Medical Device Cleaning market size was valued at US$ 12.74 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 9.3% during forecast period 2021 to 2030.

Growth Factors

High adoption of advanced methods and materials to prevent infections in hospitals and increase in the number of hospitals & other healthcare facilities, including clinics, are expected to boost market growth.

Other key factors expected to enhance the market growth include strict regulations and guidelines to reduce incidences of hospital-acquired infections coupled with introduction of novel methods & materials for cleaning, disinfecting, and sterilizing medical devices. Increase in the number of contractual service providers for reprocessing and manufacturers of materials required in these processes is also anticipated to propel the market.

Guidelines and regulation by U.S. FDA play an important role in determining market dynamics. They profile various materials along with their effects in cleaning & disinfecting medical devices and risks associated with them. In addition, they regulate standards of tests for disinfection. Most developing countries follow similar guidelines, especially those in the Asia Pacific region, where medical tourism is booming and primary customers include patients from developed countries.

Report Highlights

Out of three steps required for reprocessing of medical devices, disinfection commanded the leading share in the market in 2017. Disinfection can be performed by semiskilled professionals and quality of the same can be easily checked through various tests that are mandatory to ensure safety of medical devices. Availability of several types of disinfectants specific to different medical devices is contributing to the growth of the segment.

Prior to disinfection, washing of medical devices is an important step to remove organic or inorganic bioburden. Several players in the medical device cleaning market are introducing a combination of products that serve the purpose of cleaning as well as disinfection. Such products are known as “washer disinfectors” and are usually enzymatic products. Revenue generated by the sales of these products is considered under the disinfection segment.

Introduction of novel disinfecting agents, products, and devices to overcome the problem of resistant microorganisms is benefiting the growth of the disinfection segment. With frequent introduction of novel products, the segment is likely to exhibit lucrative growth during the forecast period.

Adoption of sterilization procedures for medical equipment within hospital settings has grown significantly with the presence of sterile processing departments in hospitals, which are dedicated to disinfection and sterilization procedures. Soaring need for effective and affordable sterilization techniques is poised to help the segment gain traction during the forecast period.

The semi-critical devices segment was the leading revenue contributor in the market in terms of device type in 2020. Quantity and frequency of usage of materials and equipment for reprocessing of semi-critical devices are high as compared to other types. Unlike critical devices, usage of semi-critical devices is significantly higher, as they do not need to be sterilized between patients.

Non-critical devices are required to be reprocessed by washing with water and other materials, including but not limited to detergents, chelators, buffers, enzymes, and other surfactants. This segment is estimated to register moderate growth during the forecast period.

Critical devices, which come in contact with intact tissues, are expected to be given special treatment to ensure complete removal of living microorganisms. They undergo cleaning and disinfection before sterilization. A large number of critical devices are designed for single-use, and this is anticipated to restrict the growth of the segment.

North America dominated the market in 2020. The presence of well-established healthcare infrastructure, strict regulations for infection control at healthcare facilities, and high adoption of advanced infection prevention solutions are among the primary factors contributing to the dominance of the region.
