By device type, the drug delivery devices segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The adoption of drug delivery devices is driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, asthma, and cardiovascular conditions, which require regular and precise medication administration. Devices like disposable syringes, insulin pens, auto-injectors, inhalers, and transdermal patches offer convenience, safety, and ease of use, which makes them ideal for clinical and home-based care. Additionally, the rising demand for self-administration and minimally invasive treatments is also propelling the use of these devices, particularly among aging populations and patients in remote areas. Moreover, the risk of contamination and the need for strict hygiene protocols encourage the shift from reusable to single-use drug delivery systems. Technological advancements that enhance dosage accuracy, patient compliance, and user experience further support market growth, along with expanding vaccination programs and the increasing role of biologics and specialty drugs that require dedicated delivery mechanisms.
By application, the general surgery segment is projected to account for the largest share during the forecast period.
The general surgery segment is experiencing significant growth in the disposable medical devices market due to the rising number of surgical procedures globally, driven by an aging population, increasing incidence of chronic and lifestyle-related diseases, and greater access to surgical care. Hospitals and surgical centers are increasingly adopting disposable instruments, such as scalpels, forceps, staplers, and drapes, to reduce the risk of cross-contamination and improve patient safety. The shift toward minimally invasive and outpatient surgeries has also increased the demand for sterile, cost-effective, ready-to-use surgical kits and instruments. Additionally, growing healthcare infrastructure in emerging economies and advancements in disposable device technology further support expanding general surgery applications. The need for enhanced operating room efficiency and reduced sterilization burden is making disposable solutions an attractive choice, thereby driving consistent growth in this segment.
Europe accounted for the second-largest share of the disposable medical device market in 2024.
The growth of the disposable medical device market in Europe is driven by stringent infection control regulations, rising healthcare expenditure, and an aging population requiring frequent medical interventions. European countries have strong regulatory frameworks prioritizing patient safety and hygiene, encouraging the widespread adoption of single-use devices to prevent healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). The increasing burden of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular conditions, is further boosting the demand for disposable diagnostic, surgical, and monitoring tools. Additionally, the region’s focus on sustainability is prompting innovations in eco-friendly disposable materials, aligning product development with environmental goals. Growth is also supported by the expansion of outpatient and home-based care services, which rely heavily on convenient, sterile, and easy-to-use medical products. These factors drive the steady rise of the European disposable medical devices market.
