Worldwide Sterilization Services Industry to 2028 - Growth in the Medical Device Industry Presents Opportunties

Dublin, Jan. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Sterilization Services Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis By Method, Service Type, Mode of Delivery, End User; and Geography" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The sterilization services market is projected to reach US$ 4,717.56 million by 2028 from 3,023.50 million in 2021; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6 % from 2021 to 2028. The increasing prevalence of healthcare-associated infections and rising number of surgical procedures performed every year across the world are among the key factors boosting the market growth. However, stringent regulations regarding chemical emissions hinder the sterilization services market growth.

Microbial sterilization is the process of killing all microorganisms and deactivating their growth in food, from surfaces, or in fluid, etc. Heat, chemical treatment, irradiation, high pressure, and filtration are among the major sterilization methods employed in different setups. Usually, third-party service providers offer contract-based sterilization services to hospitals, food & beverages and consumer goods industries, and pharmaceutical companies, among others.

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) affect huge populations across the world. Factors such as inadequate hygiene conditions, poor infrastructure, and insufficient equipment, and the lack of guidelines for cleaning and knowledge regarding infection control measures are major factors leading to elevations in the prevalence of HAIs. Hepatitis B and C, surgical site infections (SSIs), HIV infection, urinary and vascular catheter-associated infections, and ventilator-associated infections are among the common HAIs caused due to inadequate sterilization procedures. In addition to delaying patients' recovery or causing prolonged suffering, HAIs lead to extended hospital stays with high treatment costs, and resist the function of antimicrobials being administered.

According to the WHO, the annual estimated expenditure on HAIs is ~US$ 7.7 billion in Europe and US$ 6.5 billion in the US. Moreover, out of every 100 hospitalized patients, 7 in developed and 10 in developing countries are expected to acquire at least one HAI. In high-income countries, ICU-acquired infections affect ~30% of patients with at least one HAI. In low- and middle-income countries, the incidence of ICU-acquired infections is ~2-3 fold higher than high-income countries.

As the COVID-19 pandemic started spreading ruthlessly worldwide, the healthcare facilities were overwhelmed by the large number of patients in 2020. Frequent sanitization of the surfaces and sterilization became a necessity to prevent the spread of infection. In addition, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published sterilization and disinfection guidelines for medical facilities along with the need to sterilize medical devices that enter sterile tissue or a patient's vascular system. However, before the COVID-19 crisis, concerns regarding ETO's emissions led to the shuttering of ETO production plants across the US. Amid the pandemic, several facilities got permission to reopen and meet sterilization needs. For instance, in March 2020, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) increased production safely and quickly at sterilization facilities in Covington and Madison to address the challenges introduced by the dramatic increased rise in need for sterile medical equipment.

The sterilization services market, by end user, is segmented into medical device companies, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, hospitals and clinics, food and beverages, and other end users. The medical device companies segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market in 2021, and the it is anticipated to register the highest CAGR from 2021 to 2028.

European Union (EU), National Health Service (NHS), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency, Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and International Trade Administration (ITA) are among the major primary and secondary sources associated with this report.
