The artificial limbs market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.52 billion in 2024 to $2.7 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of limb amputations, enhanced healthcare facilities and access to prosthetic care, rising awareness and acceptance, government initiatives and funding, and the integration of advanced technologies such as 3D printing and robotics.

The artificial limbs market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.5 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, expansion of healthcare infrastructure, enhanced rehabilitation services, enhanced rehabilitation services, and increased awareness and acceptance. Major trends in the forecast period include 3d printing technology, the development of bionic limbs with advanced sensors, the integration of wearable sensors, advancements in robotic prosthetics, and the development of more user-friendly interfaces.

The rise in road accidents and trauma cases is expected to drive the growth of the artificial limbs market in the coming years. Road accidents and trauma refer to injuries and fatalities caused by vehicular collisions and other road-related incidents, affecting both drivers and pedestrians. The increase in these incidents is attributed to factors such as distracted driving, speeding, poor road conditions, and insufficient safety measures. Artificial limbs play a crucial role in aiding victims of road accidents and trauma by restoring mobility and functionality, thereby improving their quality of life. Prosthetic limbs enable individuals to regain the ability to walk, run, or use their hands, depending on the limb replaced. For example, according to a report by The Road Safety Charity, Bake, the number of road accident deaths in the UK increased by 10% in 2022, reaching 1,766 fatalities, with 1,711 occurring in Britain and 55 in Northern Ireland. As a result, the rise in road accidents and trauma is contributing to the expansion of the artificial limbs market.

Leading companies in the artificial limbs market are focused on developing innovative products, such as motor-powered knees, to improve the functionality and adaptability of prosthetic limbs. A motor-powered knee is an advanced prosthetic knee joint that uses motors to control the bending and extending of the leg, simulating natural knee movements. For instance, in February 2022, Össur hf, an Iceland-based manufacturer of non-invasive equipment, launched prosthetic knees designed for patients with limb differences or above-knee limb loss. This innovative knee features a motorized mechanism that enhances its functionality and adaptability, with a key feature being advanced real-time gait analysis. This technology dynamically adjusts the knee's movements to match the user's walking pattern and terrain, resulting in smoother and more natural motion, thereby improving overall mobility and comfort.

In January 2024, Össur hf further expanded its capabilities by acquiring Fior & Gentz Company for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is intended to enhance Össur's portfolio of advanced prosthetic solutions and bolster its technological capabilities in the field of prosthetics. Fior & Gentz Company, based in Germany, specializes in manufacturing custom-made orthotics for individuals requiring knee and ankle orthotic joints.

Artificial limbs, or prosthetic limbs, are devices created to replace a missing arm or leg, aiming to restore some of the natural limb's functionality and appearance. These prosthetics are custom-designed to fit the individual's body and specific needs, helping users carry out daily tasks with greater ease and mobility.

The main categories of artificial limbs include upper extremity, lower extremity, liners, sockets, and other products. Upper extremity prosthetics are designed to replace missing or non-functional parts of the upper limb, such as the arm, hand, and fingers. These prosthetics are made from various materials, including titanium, plastics, and others, and utilize different technologies, such as body-powered or cable-powered systems, cosmetic prosthetics, myoelectric or electrically powered devices, among others. The end users include hospitals, orthopedic clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, rehabilitation centers, and prosthetic clinics.
