Plastic medical equipment demand increased year by year

Plastic medical equipment demand increased year by year

In the past, medical apparatus and instruments were mostly metal is given priority to, and with the use of plastic is more and more widely, many medical equipment have the plasticizing, plastic medical equipment demand is rising year by year, and medical equipment industry is closely associated with human life and health industries, strong demand for rigid.

Plastic medical equipment demand continues to expand, particularly in the body of the equipment. The purpose of the medical equipment from single to diversified development, shrinking volume specification, now more than a piece of equipment can replace the previous pieces of equipment. Due to a variety of outstanding advantages of plastic medical equipment, the development of pharmaceutical industry in the future, it will be more and more market share and influence.

Figures show that China's current medical device market is over one hundred billion yuan, an average annual growth rate of about 23%, is expected to be the size of the market in 2015 of 2015 yuan. As population growth, to speed up the urbanization and the increase of aging population proportion, expanding the demand of medical polymer materials, according to statistics, 2012-2018 period, the global demand will be rising at a 5.6% compound annual growth rate.

In the polymer materials, plastic medical equipment application is more and more widely, from drugs and pharmaceutical packaging, to the needle, hose, surgical instruments, and so on the disposable medical device. When the concept of urbanization gradually valued, medical equipment market obtained the mining industry. Worrying is that China is facing the huge medical equipment market increased revenue loss, difficulty of breaking technology monopoly, etc multiple hazards.

The vast China, each region economy imbalance, result in some medical units used in the middle of it is difficult to meet the demand of patients, also has far can not adapt to the needs of the development of medical technology obstetric table today.

With the increase of population growth and aging of the population proportion, combined with the existing rare medium medical and health institutions at various levels, the continuous improvement of people's living standard, the requirements for the selection of medical equipment is more and more advanced, more functional diversification, market capacity will continued to expand.

If there is no supply of plastic, the medical device industry in the world would be difficult to operate. Now the United States is not only the world's largest medical equipment producer and exporter, it is important to plastic products, especially the disposable plastic products, outsourcing production contract. Many disposable plastic products manufacturers and exporters in China, the importance of the us market is self-evident. Therefore, understanding the direction of future American medical plastic market, new product development of China's medical equipment industry is very necessary.

Good in engineering plastics, thermoplastic polyester plastic is still dominant in engineering plastics raw material, because it can be used in the manufacture of a variety of medical supplies. Second, polycarbonate in recent years has become one of the fastest growing engineering plastic raw materials. Because the engineering plastic has good thermoplastic, high transparency, good elasticity and resistance to impact and other advantages, the use of reason in the medical device industry increased year by year. Its annual growth rate is far more than other engineering plastics.
