The Global Orthopedic Braces & Support, Casting & Splints Market is estimated to be valued at USD 8.02 Bn in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 12.79 Bn by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9% from 2025 to 2032. The global orthopedic braces & support, casting, & splints market has been growing significantly over the past few decades. Orthopedic braces and supports are devices used for stabilizing injured or weakened joints and bones. They aid in immobilization, provide support, improve posture, and assist movement. Casting devices such as plaster casts are used to immobilize broken bones while they heal. Splints are lightweight and removable braces that help stabilize fractures or injuries. The increasing geriatric population prone to orthopedic conditions and the rising prevalence of lifestyle diseases affecting bone and joint health are key factors driving demand for orthopedic braces, supports, casting, and splints. Additionally, the growing number of sports and accident-related injuries further contributes to the market's expansion. Moreover, advancements in material science have led to the emergence of new materials for manufacturing lightweight, comfortable, and aesthetically improved orthopedic devices. This is further expanding the application scope of such products.
Market Dynamics:
Global orthopedic braces & support, casting & splints market is expected to grow at a steady pace during the forecast period. The growing geriatric population worldwide prone to chronic orthopedic conditions such as osteoarthritis is a major driver for this market. Moreover, rising prevalence of obesity and lifestyle diseases is contributing to impairments in bone and joint health, thereby increasing the need for orthopedic braces, casts and splints. In March 2025, according to estimates by WHO, over 1.9 billion adults were overweight in 2016 and 650 million were obese. Additionally, increasing participation in sports and recreational activities has led to a surge in the number of accidental bone fractures and sprains, thus propelling the demand for related orthopedic devices. However, high costs of orthopedic products, availability of alternative treatment options such as orthopedic surgery, lack of awareness regarding newer products in some regions are some of the key factors expected to restrain market growth. Emergence of 3D printing technology creating opportunities for customized orthopedic devices can present lucrative opportunities for players in the coming years.
