Increased demand for medical devices is driving the medical elastomers market across the globe.

The growth of the medical elastomers market is attributed to the increased demand for medical devices, such as medical tubes, catheters, and syringes across the globe. These devices are widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Growing consumption of single-use devices is also one of the major drivers for the medical elastomers market.

The implants segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on application, the implants segment of the medical elastomers market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022. The growth of this application segment is attributed to the growing demand for implants across high growth regions, such as APAC and the Middle East & Africa. The technological advancements and increasing usage of minimally invasive surgeries are expected to further increase the demand for implants in orthopedic and prosthetic treatments. The rapidly growing aging demographics across the globe is another major driver for the implants application segment.

North America is the largest market for medical elastomers.

North America accounted for the largest share of the medical elastomers market in 2017. This large market share is attributed to the presence of leading medical elastomers manufacturers in the region. North America is also one of the largest medical device manufacturers in the world. The US is the largest hub for medical device manufacturing in the region, owing to which the demand for medical elastomers in the manufacturing of medical devices is further expected to rise. The growing usage of medical devices, such as medical tubes, catheters, syringes, and implants, is also supporting the growth of the medical elastomers market in the country. Additionally, the growing aging demographics is expected to increase the demand for medical devices, thereby fueling the growth of the medical elastomers market in North America.
