Metal Implants and Medical Alloys Market Report 2025

This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The metal implants and medical alloys market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $16.25 billion in 2024 to $18.1 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to aging population, orthopedic and dental procedures, rise in chronic diseases, trauma and accident cases.

The metal implants and medical alloys market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $26.83 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to customization and personalization of implants, minimally invasive procedures, growth of dental implantology, rising neurostimulation devices. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, digital health integration, sustainability and environmentally friendly alloys, collaboration and partnerships.

The rising number of road accidents is expected to drive the growth of the metal implants and medical alloys market in the coming years. Road accidents, which involve a moving vehicle on a public road causing fatal or non-fatal injuries, are increasing due to factors such as distracted driving, speeding, poor road conditions, and a higher number of vehicles on the road. Metal implants and medical alloys play a vital role in surgeries following road accidents, offering durable support for bone repair and promoting faster recovery. For example, a report published by the International Transport Forum (ITF), a France-based intergovernmental organization, revealed that Canada recorded 106 road deaths in January 2022, which increased to 153 by December 2022, marking an increase of 47 fatalities over the year. Consequently, the growing number of road accidents is fueling the expansion of the metal implants and medical alloys market.

The growing prevalence of cardiovascular disorders is expected to drive the expansion of the metal implants and medical alloys market in the coming years. Cardiovascular disorders encompass a range of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels, which can lead to serious health complications. The rise in these disorders is attributed to factors such as unhealthy lifestyles, poor diet, lack of physical activity, and an aging population. Metal implants and medical alloys are essential in the treatment of cardiovascular conditions, being used in devices like stents and artificial heart valves to provide structural support and durability. For example, in May 2024, the Singapore Heart Foundation (SHF), a non-profit organization based in Singapore, reported that ischemic heart diseases led to 5,302 deaths, a slight increase from 5,290 deaths in 2022. As a result, the increasing number of cardiovascular disorders is driving the growth of the metal implants and medical alloys market.

Companies in the metal implants and medical alloys market are embracing cutting-edge technologies like aurum technology to expand their market presence and meet growing demand. Aurum technology represents an orthopedic implant featuring a titanium nitride surface ballistically bonded to a titanium substrate. For instance, in March 2022, Total Joint Orthopedics Inc., a US-based medical device company, introduced a klassic knee system incorporating aurum technology. This pioneering replacement implant is crafted from titanium alloy and incorporates an aurum technology coating - a titanium nitride coating known for enhancing wear resistance and corrosion protection in metal implants. This results in a high-quality, efficient knee replacement procedure, designed to offer patients a longer-lasting and more robust total knee replacement. It helps minimize friction between the implant and surrounding tissue, improving its functionality and reducing the risk of complications. This technology aims to reduce the reliance on cobalt chrome in orthopedic implants.

In November 2022, Alleima, a Sweden-based manufacturer specializing in high-value-added products made from special alloys, acquired Endosmart GmbH for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is part of Alleima's strategy to broaden its product portfolio, enter new market segments, and introduce innovative technologies for the benefit of patients. Endosmart GmbH, based in Germany, is a leading manufacturer of metal implants and medical alloy devices.
