Opportunities and Key Players in Clinical Nutrition: The Market for Enteral, Parenteral and Infant Nutrition in the US and the EU
Business Insights, May 2009, Pages: 125
In both the US and EU, the clinical nutrition industry is undergoing a significant shift as major players re-align their businesses. While some are divesting clinical nutrition operations to focus on prescription medicines, others are building their capabilities to expand their presence in clinical nutrition. This is resulting in some players, such as Novartis, exiting the market while others, like Nestlé, are growing. Demand for clinical nutrition products continues to rise with aging populations that are using more health care products and services, as well as a rising rate of premature births that is fueling increases in infant clinical nutrition. Rising demand, coupled with the introduction of sophisticated new clinical nutrition products, will support market growth over the next five years.
‘Opportunities and Key Players in Clinical Nutrition: The market for enteral, parenteral and infant nutrition in the US and the EU’ is a new nutrition report that provides an in-depth analysis of the clinical nutrition industry within the US and EU, including sales forecasts from 2008 to 2013. It offers a detailed breakdown of the products, positions and market shares of the leading manufacturers of clinical nutrition products, as well as a discussion of other important players such as ingredient suppliers and service providers. This report defines clinical nutrition as nutritional products used under the supervision (but not necessarily prescription) of a physician in accordance with the US Orphan Drug Act; therefore, forecasts may differ from some other nutrition product estimates.
Key Findings
Parenteral nutrition will demonstrate the strongest growth, at 11.3% per year, on average, followed by enteral nutrition with 7.4% annual growth and infant nutrition with 7.0%.
In the United States, approximately 465,000 persons relied upon clinical nutrition in 2008. Over the next 5 years, this group will expand by 8.7% per year, with the greatest growth in the parenteral segment (11.3% annually) followed by enteral tube feeding (8.9% per year).
In the EU, more than 650,000 individuals utilized clinical nutrition in 2008. Through 2013, the total number of European clinical nutrition patients will expand by 7.7% per year.
No single company represents more than about 20% of the market, as few have expertise in both the US and EU regions for all three clinical nutrition segments.
