Description

Disposable Medical Supplies

Disposable medical product demand in the US is expected to grow at an annual rate of 4.2 percent, reaching $54.1 billion in 2020. While technology advances will result in mixed impact on overall product demand, drug delivery systems and related products will continue to experience the most rapid expansion due to growth in the number of patients requiring long-term therapies or surgical intervention.

This study forecasts medical product demand by application, including:
Pharmaceuticals
Surgical and Medical Instruments
Surgical Appliances and Supplies
Diagnostic Products
Electro medical Equipment
Other Products

Disposable pharmaceutical products will remain the largest of these, occupying more than two thirds of the market.

Key raw materials used to manufacture disposable medical products include:
Plastic resins
Nonwoven fabric
Paper and paperboard
Rubber materials
Other raw materials

In particular, nonwoven products are expected to experience above average sales growth. Enhanced focus on infection prevention in hospitals and outpatient facilities will expand consumption of single-use nonwoven garments and textiles, while bladder control issues in an aging population will boost demand for nonwoven incontinence goods.

The market for US disposable medical product manufacturing is fragmented, with more than 10,000 individual items produced for numerous therapeutic, diagnostic, and patient support end uses. Major product segments are generally dominated by three or four top competitors.

Key disposable medical product suppliers include Abbott Laboratories, Becton Dickinson, Johnson & Johnson, Halyard Health, Kimberly-Clark, Pfizer, Smith & Nephew, and 3M.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
