Veterinary Medical Equipment Market Report 2025

The veterinary medical equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.42 billion in 2024 to $3.69 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased pet ownership by gen x and gen y adults, increased pet spending, increased disease prevalence.

The veterinary medical equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.93 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to adoption of companion animals, increased efficiency of veterinary treatment with portable x-rays and ultrasound scanners, increased standards of living and strengthened middle class, increasing awareness of pet vaccinations and legal requirement of microchipping. Major trends in the forecast period include veterinary diagnostic providers should consider investing in advance technologies for faster diagnosis of medical condition, rapid adoption of companion animals will drive the market, ultimately growing the veterinary equipment market, veterinary diagnostic service providers should consider adopting molecular biology for early detection of disease, since wearable technologies enable farmers and veterinarians to track critical health parameters in pets and animals, they should consider investing in these technologies, and companies should utilize 3D printers to enable versatility and personalization of veterinary supplies.

The rise in pet ownership is anticipated to fuel growth in the veterinary medical equipment market. This increase in pet ownership is largely attributed to higher disposable incomes, increased awareness of the emotional and physical benefits of pet companionship, and evolving societal norms that see pets as integral family members. Pet ownership involves individuals or families keeping animals as companions. Veterinary medical equipment for pet owners, such as home diagnostic kits and portable monitoring devices, enables them to better manage their pets’ health, supports early illness detection, and ensures timely veterinary care. For example, as of October 2024, the American Veterinary Medical Association, a nonprofit professional association, reported that the number of dog-owning households in the U.S. is projected to reach 59.8 million, or 45.5% of all U.S. households, while cat-owning households have increased to 42.1 million, representing 32.1% of all U.S. households. Thus, the rising pet ownership rate is boosting the veterinary medical equipment market.

The growth of the veterinary medical equipment market is propelled by the increasing prevalence of diseases in animals. Animal diseases, resulting from various factors such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and environmental elements, disrupt normal animal functions. Veterinary medical equipment plays a pivotal role in detecting and diagnosing these diseases, aiding veterinarians in understanding the root causes for more effective treatment. An example is the reported cases of monkeypox between January 1st and July 8th, 2022, where 2,087 cases were reported, with 203 confirmed cases and a 2.4% case fatality rate. This surge in animal diseases is expected to drive the veterinary medical equipment market's growth.

Advancements in diagnostic tools have significantly improved veterinary services. Portable x-ray and ultrasound scanners have enhanced efficiency, especially in emergency situations, across various veterinary practices. Devices such as the Wristscan V9, used for pregnancy tests in animals, and the Alivecor iPhone app, performing electrocardiograms on animals, showcase the progress in veterinary diagnostics.

Key players in the animal services market are actively investing in technological advancements, exemplified by the Magnifico Vet MRI System. Launched by Esaote North America, Inc., this imaging solution offers diagnostic efficacy for animals of different sizes. The Magnifico Vet employs sustainable green permanent-magnet technology, operating without the need for cryogens and consuming significantly less power compared to superconducting systems. This innovative system is designed to provide exceptional diagnostic image quality, reflecting a commitment to functional design and eco-conscious practices.
