The terminal sterilization services market has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $11.62 billion in 2023 to $12.9 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.0%. The growth observed in the historical period can be credited to the heightened stringency of regulatory standards, an upsurge in healthcare expenditure, a rising demand for sterile medical devices, an increased number of surgical procedures, and the globalization of pharmaceutical manufacturing.
The terminal sterilization services market is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.23 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to the swift expansion of the biopharmaceutical industry, the increasing demand for the sterilization of single-use medical devices, a concentrated emphasis on outsourcing sterilization processes, a surge in contract sterilization services, the globalization of medical device manufacturing, and an elevated adoption of sterile packaging. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period encompass an uptick in outsourcing practices, continuous advancements in sterilization technologies, a heightened emphasis on single-use devices, strict adherence to regulatory compliance, and an increased focus on environmental sustainability.
The anticipated rise in hospital-acquired infections is poised to drive the growth of the terminal sterilization services market. Hospital-acquired infections, also known as healthcare-associated infections, are infections acquired during a hospital stay and are not present or in incubation at the time of admission. Terminal sterilization is a crucial process in hospitals, particularly for disposable medical devices and instruments used in patients, to prevent contamination and safeguard patients from healthcare-associated infections. For example, as of May 2022, reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) revealed that more than 24% of patients globally were affected by healthcare-associated infections. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the US estimated that hospital-acquired infections resulted in about 1.7 million infections and 99,000 associated deaths annually, constituting 32% of all healthcare-acquired infections in the US by 2022. These numbers are expected to increase in the future, underscoring the driving force behind the terminal sterilization services market.
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is also poised to contribute to the growth of the terminal sterilization services market. Chronic diseases are persistent and often incurable health conditions requiring ongoing management and care. Terminal sterilization services play a crucial role in preventing infections and ensuring safety in managing medical equipment and supplies for individuals with chronic diseases. As of September 2022, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), non-communicable diseases (NCDs) or chronic diseases accounted for 74% of the 41 million deaths globally each year. This included 17.9 million deaths from cardiovascular diseases, 9.3 million deaths from cancer, 4.1 million deaths from chronic respiratory diseases, and 2.0 million deaths from diabetes. Additionally, a report from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 2023 predicted a 99.5% increase in the number of people aged 50 and older with at least one chronic illness, rising from 71.522 million in 2020 to 142.66 million in 2050. Thus, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is a significant driver for the terminal sterilization services market.
Prominent companies in the terminal sterilization services market are concentrating on the development of advanced solutions, such as next-generation Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) systems such as VHP Biodecontamination Systems, in response to evolving needs. Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) bio-decontamination systems represent cutting-edge technologies engineered to achieve a substantial reduction in bioburden. For instance, in September 2021, Steris, a US-based provider of products and services supporting patient care, introduced the VHP 100i and 1000i vaporized hydrogen peroxide biodecontamination systems. These systems are designed for a 6-log reduction in bioburden in pharmaceutical, medical device, and research settings. Their seamless integration into building automation and HVAC systems facilitates convenient and frequent decontamination of diverse environments. In contrast to fogging systems, Steris VHP utilizes a dry, small-molecule process compatible with various surface materials, including sensitive electronic equipment.
Leading companies in the terminal sterilization services market are actively engaged in the development of advanced technologies, such as Lidding technology, to address challenges associated with heat sterilization. Lidding technology involves sophisticated methods and materials for designing and manufacturing lids or coverings in packaging applications. For example, in August 2021, Amcor, a Switzerland-based packaging company, unveiled innovative healthcare lidding technology for combination products, developed in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson Vision. This proprietary solution, based on patented inert film development, enables heat sterilization without drug uptake into the packaging. Particularly suitable for devices with Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API), the technology ensures machinability, post-sterilization integrity, and a patient-friendly peel opening.
In May 2023, Sharp, a Japan-based provider of commercial pharmaceutical packaging and clinical trial supply services, completed the acquisition of Berkshire Sterile Manufacturing (BSM) for an undisclosed amount. Through this strategic move, Sharp aimed to enhance its capabilities and offer a comprehensive, integrated solution in small-to-medium scale sterile injectable services. Berkshire Sterile Manufacturing (BSM), a US-based manufacturer of small-scale sterile clinical and commercial drug products, also provides terminal steam sterilization services.
