The orthopedic splints market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.3 billion in 2025 to $2.51 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to fracture incidence growth, emergency care expansion, sports participation increase, hospital trauma services growth, availability of ready-to-use splints.
The orthopedic splints market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.52 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth of ambulatory care, demand for cost-effective immobilization, innovation in splint materials, aging population injuries, expansion of home recovery care. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for prefabricated splints, growth of sports injury treatments, increased use in emergency care, preference for lightweight materials, expansion of outpatient orthopedic care.
The increasing prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders is anticipated to drive the growth of the orthopedic splints market in the coming years. Musculoskeletal disorders affect muscles, bones, joints, tendons, and ligaments, causing pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. This rise in musculoskeletal conditions is largely attributed to sedentary lifestyles, where extended periods of inactivity weaken muscles, decrease flexibility, and heighten the risk of bone and joint problems. Orthopedic splints play a vital role in managing these conditions by offering targeted support, stabilizing affected regions, reducing strain to ease discomfort, and enhancing joint alignment, which collectively supports recovery and mobility. For example, in January 2024, Gov.UK, a UK-based government agency, reported that the prevalence of long-term musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions among individuals aged 16 and above increased from 17.6% in 2022 to 18.4% in 2023, with a prevalence of 20.9% in females and 15.8% in males. As a result, the growing incidence of musculoskeletal disorders is fueling the demand for orthopedic splints.
Major companies operating in the orthopedic splints market are emphasizing digital health-enabled splinting solutions, such as remote-monitoring splints, which incorporate connected sensor-based technologies to track healing indicators including motion, pressure, and strain in real time, enabling clinicians to refine rehabilitation protocols and enhance patient outcomes. For example, in January 2024, Xenco Medical, a U.S.-based medical device company, launched its TrabeculeX Continuum, a convergence platform combining digital health and biomaterials. This system integrates the TrabeculeX Bioactive Matrix - a regenerative scaffold designed with submicron surface architecture to promote three-dimensional bone growth and hydroxycarbonate-apatite formation - with the TrabeculeX Recovery App, which allows surgeons to prescribe personalized rehabilitation programs and sustain continuous postoperative interaction through asynchronous video and text communication. This development highlights how leading companies are transforming the orthopedic splints market by embedding connected monitoring capabilities and therapeutic guidance into advanced splinting ecosystems.
In March 2023, Asker Healthcare Group, a Sweden-based provider of medical products and services, acquired GeniMedical B.V. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enables Asker to enhance its product offerings with GeniMedical’s innovative orthopedic solutions, including splints, while supporting the company’s expansion across European markets. GeniMedical B.V. is a Netherlands-based orthopedic splints manufacturer.
Major companies operating in the orthopedic splints market are 3M Company, Zimmer Biomet Holdings Inc., Össur hf., DeRoyal Industries Inc., Breg Inc., Trulife, Tynor Orthotics Pvt Ltd., Bauerfeind AG, Alimed, Bird & Cronin Inc., medi GmbH & Co KG, GPC Medical Ltd., SAM Medical Products, Otto Bock Healthcare, Orthosys, DJO Global, Thuasne Group, Navchetan Orthopedic Appliances, United Ortho, Vive Health, Dynarex Corporation, Neo G Medical.
North America was the largest region in the orthopedic splints market in 2025. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period.

Tariffs have increased the cost of imported fiberglass, plastics, resins, and metal components used in orthopedic splints, raising overall manufacturing and product costs. These effects are most visible in fiberglass and plastic splint segments, particularly in North America and Europe that rely on Asia-Pacific material supplies. Higher prices have impacted hospital and specialty center procurement. However, tariffs are also supporting local sourcing and domestic production of splint materials, improving supply reliability and encouraging regional manufacturing growth.

Orthopedic splints are medical devices designed to provide support, stability, or immobilization to injured bones, joints, or soft tissues, facilitating proper healing. They are commonly used to limit movement and provide structural support during recovery. Depending on the nature of the injury, orthopedic splints can be custom-molded or prefabricated to ensure a secure and comfortable fit.
The primary products in orthopedic splints include fiberglass splints, plastic splints, tools and accessories, and others. Fiberglass splints are lightweight, durable, and water-resistant, making them an ideal material for orthopedic use. They are applied in a variety of cases, including lower extremity, upper extremity, and spinal injuries, and are utilized by end-users such as hospitals, specialty centers, and other healthcare facilities.
The orthopedic splints market consists of sales of wrist splints, hand splints, thumb splints, spine splints, and knee splints. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is, the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.
The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD unless otherwise specified).
