Medical Copper Tubing Global Market Report 2024

The medical copper tubing market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.67 billion in 2023 to $1.81 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the reliability and longevity of medical copper tubing, compliance with safety standards, its application in diagnostic and imaging equipment, the increase in home healthcare practices, and the overall expansion of medical device usage.

The medical copper tubing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.46 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to an increased demand for medical devices, a sustained emphasis on infection control, a rise in minimally invasive procedures, the expansion of home healthcare practices, and continued developments in imaging technology. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the incorporation of antimicrobial properties in medical copper tubing, advancements in manufacturing technology, a further increase in minimally invasive procedures, a shift towards home healthcare, and an increased utilization of medical copper tubing in imaging and diagnostic equipment.

The growth in the number of surgeries is anticipated to drive the expansion of the medical copper tubing market in the future. Surgical procedures involve medical techniques that entail making incisions using specialized equipment to either heal damage or halt diseases within a living body. Medical copper tubing plays a crucial role in maintaining cleanliness and meeting low-maintenance requirements for life-saving tools, surgical and treatment equipment, as well as medical vacuum systems used to extract gases and fluids from patient-treatment areas during surgeries. For example, a report published in April 2022 by The Aesthetic Society on aesthetic plastic surgery statistics revealed a 54% increase in overall surgical procedures in 2021 compared to 2020. Notably, the total number of body surgery procedures surged from 564,303 in 2020 to 921,664 in 2021, indicating a 63% increase. Consequently, the rise in surgical procedures is fostering the growth of the medical copper tubing market.

The escalating healthcare expenditure is expected to contribute to the advancement of the medical copper tubing market. Healthcare expenditure encompasses all costs related to providing family planning services, nutrition programs, health-focused emergency assistance, and health services. An increase in healthcare spending is such as to drive innovations in medical copper tubing, enhancing patient access to high-quality pharmaceutical equipment. As of March 2023, the American Medical Association reported a 2.7% rise in healthcare spending in the United States, reaching $12,914 per person or $4.3 trillion in 2021. Thus, the upward trend in healthcare spending is propelling the growth of the medical copper tubing market.

The surge in demand for medical devices is expected to be a driving force behind the growth of the medical copper tubing market. Medical devices are products designed for use in human healthcare to diagnose, treat, or monitor various medical conditions. Copper tubing is commonly employed in medical devices to transport medical gases such as oxygen, nitrous oxide, and carbon dioxide in hospitals and other healthcare settings. Notably, according to the Medical Device Network, North America witnessed an increase in medical device deal activity from $21.57 billion in November 2021 to $42.01 billion in December 2021. Consequently, the growing demand for medical devices is fueling the expansion of the medical copper tubing market.

A prominent trend in the medical copper tubing market is the introduction of innovative products by major companies to reinforce their market position. For instance, in June 2021, KME, a Germany-based manufacturer of copper and copper alloy products, unveiled a range of innovative products, including medical copper tubes with antimicrobial properties designed to enhance health protection in highly frequented public places. The SaCup series of products, which are 100% recyclable, include finished and semi-finished items used for neutralizing viruses and germs in hospitals, particularly for hospital beds and table constructions. These products offer various benefits, including durability, health safety, and sustainability.
