Technological developments are one of the major growth drivers in the medical plastics market. Polymer science and material engineering innovations have led to medical plastics with enhanced properties, such as biocompatibility, durability, and flexibility. These advancements have widened the application range of medical plastics, allowing them to be used in various medical devices and equipment. Moreover, the development of biodegradable plastics has revolutionized the field of medical implants, offering a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional materials.
Another area where technological advancements have been crucial is developing medical devices for minimally invasive surgery. Medical plastics manufacture devices such as endoscopes, catheters, and surgical instruments, which enable surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater precision and minimal trauma to the patient. These devices have revolutionized the field of surgery, leading to shorter recovery times and reduced risks of complications.
The LAMEA region has experienced significant population growth and increased life expectancy, leading to a larger elderly population, who are susceptible to chronic diseases. According to the National Library of Medicine (NLM), in the Middle East, the prevalence of CVD is high (10.1%). Thus, as the population ages, the demand for these materials is expected to grow, presenting opportunities for growth and innovation in the medical plastics market.
