Segmental Outlook 

The global medical injection molding market is segmented based on the material, system, and products. On the basis of material, the market is segmented into free plastics and metals. Based on the system, the market is segmented into hot runners and cold runners. based on the products, the market is sub-segmented into medical equipment components, consumables, patient aids, orthopedics instruments, and dental products. Among the system segment cold runner is anticipated to witness the fastest growth due to it offering various benefits such as ease of maintenance and cost-effectiveness and is also used in wider application of all types of polymers. This system produces a wide variety of higher-quality parts, and also reduces initial investments in comparison to other systems. Thus attributed to such factors the segment is growing fastest during the forecast period.

Among the material, the plastic sub-segment is predicted to hold a prominent share in the market due to its wide approach to producing complex medical products. It also offers a wide range of solutions for high-volume packaging. Due to the growing advancements in injection molding and new technology development as well as less material use and low-weight plastics in the packaging industry, the segment is anticipated to grow considerably. Moreover, this process is used for rigid bulk packaging, and thin-wall packaging in several industrial sectors, which in turn creates a huge demand for the Medical Injection Molding market. For instance, in January 2021, SEA-LECT Plastics developed a new technology for plastic injection molding "new resin formulations" to support the latest innovations. The newly developed technology is enhancing injection molding by utilizing multiple materials to decrease the complexity of components, with improved chemical and thermal resistance.

Regional Outlooks

The global medical injection molding market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East &Africa, and Latin America. North America is anticipated to hold a prominent share in the market due to the advanced and well-developed healthcare infrastructure in the region.
