Sterilization Container Systems Market Dynamics

The sterilization container systems market growth is driven by the growing incidence of Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs), rising number of surgical procedures taking place globally, rising use in rigid containers, growth of more resistant microbes, rise in healthcare expenditure, and improving healthcare infrastructure.

The rising number of surgical procedures taking place globally is expected to drive the global sterilization container systems market growth

The growing number of surgical procedures taking place worldwide is expected to increase the demand for sterilization containers.  For instance, according to Kalorama information, there are 232 million surgical procedures taking place globally as of 2016, of which 20% happens in the United States, indicating a huge healthcare market.  The increasing number of surgical procedures consequently profound the repetitive use of various surgical instruments. This usage of surgical instruments calls for sterilization, which has increased the demand for the sterilization container systems market.

The growing incidence of Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs), is expected to drive the global sterilization container systems market growth

Hospital-acquired infections (HAI), also known as nosocomial infections are infections that patients get while receiving treatment for medical or surgical conditions. The most common bacteria associated with the HAIs include C. difficile, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Klebsiella, E. coli, Enterococcus, and Pseudomonas.

For instance, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), of every 100 hospitalized patients, 7 in developed and 10 in developing countries will acquire at least 1 HAI. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that approximately 1.7 million annual infections are due to HAI infections. Moreover, hospitals realize the severity of this statistic also because surgical patients who develop infections have 60% more chances of being admitted to the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and, to prevent such causalities from rising from HAIs, the demand for sterilization containers is increasing, resulting in market growth.

More use of sterilization wraps or pouches is likely to hinder the market growth

The sterilization wraps are generally used to pack and cover surgical instruments to protect them from the air, airborne pathogens, and moisture is a hindrance for the market growth. These sterilization wraps are compatible with both high and low-temperature sterilization methods and are available in different dimensions. In addition, healthcare professionals in developing countries are increasingly adopting disposable wraps, which are less expensive than sterilization containers are the major restricting factors of the market.

COVID-19 Impact on Sterilization Container Systems Market

The equipment sterilization container plays a critical role in preventing the spread of COVID-19 in healthcare settings. During the pandemic, patient-to-patient pathogen transmission through medical devices can be entirely prevented by properly sterilizing. The use of reprocessed equipment to disinfect or sterilize medical devices is more than expected during the outbreak since improper decontamination of surgical instruments, endoscopic devices, and respiratory care devices can increase the threat of COVID transmission. This situation has enhanced the importance of sterilization container systems to ensure the proper sterilization of medical devices.

The decreased usage of sterilization containers due to the decline in elective and non-essential procedures, the lower utilization of routine testing, less capital spending by customers, and decreased R&D activity due to laboratory closures and decreased clinical testing have all affected the market growth. In addition, many countries have begun to re-open their economies, but it will take time to utilize sterilization container systems to reach pre-pandemic levels. Furthermore, any resurgence in COVID-19 infections could result in new lockdowns, quarantine requirements, or other restrictions to slow down the spread of COVID-19, which may negatively impact market growth.

Sterilization Container Systems Market Segmentation Analysis

The perforated sterilization container system segment is expected to hold the largest share in this market segment

The Perforated sterilization containers accounted for the largest share of the sterilization container systems market and are also expected to grow at the fastest CAGR. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the advantages offered by perforated containers, such as rapid sterilization (around half as much time as a non-perforated container). For instance, in 2020, Symmetry Surgical Inc. has completed its acquisition of The O.R. Company. The O.R. Company develops, manufactures, and markets high-quality, innovative surgical devices from niche consumables to proprietary surgical instruments for minimally invasive and open surgery.

The sterilization container segment is expected to hold the largest share in this market segment

Sterilization containers accounted for the major share of the sterilization container systems market. The large market share is attributed to their advantages—ease of use, protection against microorganisms, and financial benefits, improving patient safety and reprocessing patient turnaround time and also improving the overall bottom line of a health care organizations and the growing number of surgical procedures and rising incidence of hospital-associated infections (HAIs). For instance, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that approximately 1.7 million annual infections are due to HAI infections.

The Aluminum Sterilized Container segment is expected to hold the largest share in this market segment

Aluminum Sterilized Containers are expected to hold the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The prevalence of this market segment is because of the numerous advantages of anodized aluminum, such as versatility, durability, excellent drying properties, ease of maintenance, and term conductivity. The aluminum sterilization containers can be considered non-economic at first view, but their lifetime is more than five years. When the lifetime is based on, the total cost reduces approximately at a rate of 70-80% more when compared with the cost of single-use wraps, and hence, they are a more economical choice.

Sterilization Container Systems Market Geographical Share

North America region holds the largest market share of the global sterilization container systems market

North America region is expected to serve a large share of the market owing to the increasing patient population as a result of rising in the geriatric population and the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, which leads to a large number of surgical procedures, high prevalence of HAIs, the existence of advanced healthcare infrastructure in the US and Canada, the implementation of favorable government initiatives and stringent regulations on sterilization and disinfection, and the presence of key players in this region.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2018, globally, chronic diseases are the leading causes of death and disability. Disease rates from chronic conditions are accelerating worldwide, advancing across every region and pervading all socioeconomic classes. In 2020, the contribution of chronic diseases caused 73% of all deaths and 60% of the global burden of disease. For instance, in 2021, Galen Medical Ltd., a privately-held Montreal-based Canadian surgical products company with a national sales force, has purchased Caster Medical Ltd. The acquisition bolsters Galen Medical’s business in Anesthesia, Emergency Medicine and ICU while broadening its product range.
