Medical Device Contract Manufacturing Market Size, Share, Forecast, & Trends Analysis by Device (Biochemistry, Immunoassay, CT, MRI, X-ray, Ultrasound, Pacemaker, Defibrillator, Oximeter), Service (Development, Manufacturing, QA) - Global Forecast to 2031
The medical device contract manufacturing market is expected to reach $171.19 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 9.9% from 2024 to 2031. After secondary and primary research and an in-depth analysis of the market scenario, the report discusses key industry drivers, restraints, opportunities, challenges, and trends.
The growth of the medical device contract manufacturing market is driven by the rising trend of outsourcing design, development, and manufacturing in the MedTech sector. Contract manufacturing offers various benefits, such as reduced development costs and time, flexibility to scale production according to demand fluctuations, and access to specialized manufacturing processes. Additionally, changing regulatory landscapes in the medical device industry compel companies to seek regulatory services and engineering expertise from contract manufacturers.
Furthermore, the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies, coupled with rising healthcare expenditures and the demand for quality healthcare in developing countries, is generating growth opportunities for market players. Moreover, the cost advantages offered by contract manufacturers in emerging economies further contribute to market expansion.
Based on device, the medical device contract manufacturing market is segmented into IVD devices, IVD consumables, imaging devices, cardiovascular devices, drug delivery devices, orthopedic devices, endoscopy devices, ophthalmology devices, dental devices, patient monitoring devices, anesthesia devices, mobility aids, surgical systems, consumables, and other devices. The drug delivery devices segment is projected to witness the highest growth rate of 11.2% during the forecast period 2024-2031. The growth of this segment is driven by the rising incidence of chronic diseases, the growing adoption of biologic drugs and specialty pharmaceuticals, the growing emphasis on patient-centric care, and the trend of self-administering medications.
Based on risk type, the medical device contract manufacturing market is segmented into low-risk medical devices, moderate-risk medical devices, and high-risk medical devices. In 2024, the moderate-risk medical devices segment is expected to account for the largest share of the medical device contract manufacturing market. The segment's large share is attributed to medical device companies' high preference for outsourcing the development & manufacture of moderate-risk medical devices, the high use of syringes, the growing geriatric population leading to high demand for catheters, and the high adoption of self-pregnancy test kits.
Based on service, the medical device contract manufacturing market is segmented into design & development, manufacturing, testing & validation, quality assurance, implementation & maintenance services, packaging services, regulatory affairs services, and other services. In 2024, the design & development segment is expected to account for the largest share of the medical device contract manufacturing market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the growing demand for advanced medical devices and the high costs associated with the design and development of medical devices.
Based on application, the medical device contract manufacturing market is segmented into IVD, drug delivery, dental applications, diabetes, diagnostic imaging, cardiology, orthopedic applications, endoscopy, surgical applications, and other applications. The drug delivery segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period 2024-2031. The growth of this segment is driven by the growing trend of self-administering medications, the increasing preference for home healthcare, innovations such as smart inhalers, and growing initiatives by contract manufacturers to strengthen their drug delivery device manufacturing capabilities.
Based on end user, the medical device contract manufacturing market is segmented into large-scale medical device companies, mid-scale medical device companies, and small-scale medical device companies. In 2024, the large-scale medical device companies segment is expected to account for the largest share of the medical device contract manufacturing market. MedTech is a constantly innovating industry that requires high standards of quality. The demand for advanced medical technologies is growing globally owing to the growing disease burden. Established large-scale medical device companies that struggle with cost containment benefit from the cost efficiencies of contract manufacturers while also enhancing scalability, quality, and affordability.
