The Business Research Company's Single Use Medical Devices Market Report 2026 – Market Size, Trends, And Global Forecast 2026-2035
LONDON, GREATER LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, February 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- "The single-use medical devices market has been expanding quickly, driven by growing healthcare needs and safety concerns. As healthcare systems worldwide emphasize infection prevention and operational efficiency, single-use devices are becoming increasingly vital. Let’s explore the current market size, growth factors, regional leadership, and trends shaping this sector’s future.
Market Size Projections for Single-Use Medical Devices
The single-use medical devices market has experienced robust growth over recent years. It is set to rise from $25.18 billion in 2025 to $28.01 billion in 2026, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%. This surge reflects increased demand for infection control, more surgical procedures globally, the growing incidence of chronic illnesses, higher hospital admissions and emergency cases, and the expanding use of disposable equipment to enhance safety.
Looking ahead, the market is expected to continue this rapid growth trajectory, reaching $42.43 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 10.9%. Key factors driving this expansion include progress in biodegradable materials, advancements in smart disposable devices, greater automation in manufacturing processes, improvements in sterile barrier packaging, and innovations in lightweight device designs. The forecast period will also see trends such as eco-friendly disposable materials and smarter single-use technologies shaping the market.

Understanding Single-Use Medical Devices and Their Role
Single-use medical devices are designed for one-time application during medical treatments, ensuring sterility and reducing contamination risks. Their disposable nature eliminates the need for reprocessing, which enhances safety and convenience. These instruments provide consistent performance while protecting patients and healthcare workers by preventing cross-infection between procedures.
Infection Control Awareness as a Major Growth Driver
Increasing understanding of infection control and hygiene standards is a primary factor propelling the single-use medical devices market. Maintaining hygiene in healthcare environments is crucial to prevent hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) and cross-contamination, which can lead to longer hospital stays, higher treatment costs, and increased patient morbidity and mortality.
This heightened awareness is fueled by stricter regulatory frameworks focusing on patient safety and infection prevention. Single-use devices align well with these standards by offering sterile, disposable tools that minimize contamination risks. For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) highlighted in May 2023 that roughly 1 in 10 patients in acute care hospitals acquires at least one healthcare-associated infection during their stay, with notably higher rates in low- and middle-income countries than in high-income nations. Such data underscore the pressing need for infection prevention measures, which in turn supports growing adoption of single-use medical devices in hospitals and clinics globally.
