 Steam Autoclaves Market Scope and Segmentation      

Market Definition

Autoclaves also known as steam sterilizers, are typically used for healthcare or industrial applications.  A steam autoclave is a type of pressure chamber used to clean industrial gear and equipment. This technique is frequently used to clean surgical tools, lab equipment, solids, liquids, and hollow surfaces. Table-top, vertical, horizontal, floor standing and others are a few of the often used variations. They include a vacuum system, steam generator, thermostatic trap, safety valve, waste-water cooling mechanism, and control system.

 Steam Autoclaves Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising number of infectious patients

The market for steam autoclaves is expected to grow at a faster rate during the forecast period of 2022 and 2029 due to factors including the rising number of patients with hospital-acquired infections, the increasing adoption of central sterile supply departments in healthcare facilities, and the growing need to manage biohazardous waste. On the other hand, expanding applications from the healthcare, dental, and pharmaceutical sectors coupled with the implementation of tight government regulations, will present significant potential for the expansion of the steam autoclaves market over the aforementioned forecast period.

• Rise in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs)

One of the main elements influencing the market favourably is the medical sector's rapid growth. Additionally, the need for steam autoclaves has increased due to the rise in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) used to sterilize medical equipment and stop cross-transmission. The market is expanding as a result of the growing need for effective ways to handle biohazard waste.

Opportunities

• Growing need for sterilization devices

Over the coming years, the market is likely to be driven by the increased need for sterilization devices. Continued development of breakthrough technologies that result in lower manufacturing costs and lower market prices for larger steam autoclaves is predicted to boost global adoption rates for these devices.

Restraints/Challenges

On the other hand, the rising cost of specialized autoclaves, the unavailability of proper sterilization guidelines will obstruct the market's growth rate. The dearth of skilled professionals and lack of healthcare infrastructure in developing economies will challenge the steam autoclaves market.

COVID-19 Impact on Steam Autoclaves Market

The expansion of the steam autoclaves market has been impacted by the unprecedented health risk that is the global spread of COVID-19. The quick spread of SARS-CoV-2 has restricted trade and the transportation of goods, shut down significant sectors of the global economy, and disrupted the supply chain, all of which have an impact on market expansion. However, their use has significantly increased due to the steam autoclaves' ability to protect against the SARS-CoV-2 virus during the ongoing pandemic. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that in order to handle COVID-19 safely, laboratory biosafety guidelines relating to the novel coronavirus in the biosafety categories BSL-2 and BSL-3 are necessary. This reason is further fuelling the demand in medical facilities and academic institutions for steam autoclaves. Hence, the impact of the pandemic on the industry will be minimal as the demand for steam autoclaves is increasing, thereby fuelling the steam autoclaves market value.

Recent Development

• In February 2021, Advanced autoclave sustainability features were introduced by Consolidated Sterilizer Systems, a top manufacturer of steam autoclaves. The medical facilities will benefit from this development, which will be followed by programs to cut carbon emissions.
• In April 2022, Priorclave, a producer of table- top autoclaves in Europe, introduced two models with 40L and 60L capacities. This product line was introduced to cater to a wide range of market segments, including the pharmaceutical, healthcare, food & beverage, agricultural, and research industries.
