The old-age facilities construction market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $377.81 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing use of smart monitoring and AI-assisted care systems, rising demand for energy-efficient facilities, expansion of modular and prefabricated construction solutions, growing integration of robotics in facility management, development of digitally connected elderly care environments. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of smart elderly care systems, adoption of energy-efficient building designs, deployment of AI-based monitoring and safety technologies, expansion of robotics-assisted facility operations, implementation of connected facility management platforms.

The increasing healthcare expenditure is expected to drive the growth of the old-age facilities construction market in the coming years. Healthcare expenditure refers to the total spending on medical services, equipment, and technologies aimed at improving health outcomes. This expenditure is rising due to the growing demand for advanced medical technologies, as hospitals and clinics continue to invest in innovative equipment and digital solutions to enhance patient care and outcomes. Higher healthcare spending supports the development of old-age facilities by directing more resources toward constructing infrastructure that provides medical care, rehabilitation, and assisted living services, ensuring better support and quality of life for older adults. For instance, in June 2025, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, a US-based government agency, national health expenditures (NHE) in 2023 grew by 7.5 percent, reaching $4.9 trillion, which averages $14,570 per person and accounts for 17.6 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Therefore, the increasing healthcare expenditure is fueling the expansion of the old-age facilities construction market.

Key companies operating in the old-age facilities construction market are focusing on developing advanced approaches such as bioelectrical impedance scanning to enhance senior health monitoring, improve personalized care, and optimize facility management. Bioelectrical impedance scanning is a method used to assess body composition and hydration levels by transmitting a safe, low electrical current through the body and measuring the resistance (impedance) to that current. For example, in August 2025, PhantomOmics Inc., a Canada-based technology company, partnered with Garden Loft, a Canada-based architecture company, to introduce the world’s first smart modular senior homes equipped with advanced health scanning technology. This solution enables continuous, non-contact health monitoring, improving safety and allowing early intervention for seniors. It supports independence and privacy while integrating seamlessly with smart home systems to provide peace of mind for families. This innovative approach allows seniors to age with dignity in supportive environments, reducing the need for costly emergency care.
