The global hospital supplies market, valued at USD 31.9 billion in 2025, is forecast to reach USD 45.9 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 3.7%. Growth is propelled by rising healthcare expenditure, increased patient admissions, and heightened infection control standards worldwide. Resuming elective procedures post-pandemic has further stabilized supply chains and supported recovery.

North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe remain key growth regions, with investments in infrastructure modernization and regulatory mandates for hygiene boosting long-term demand.

Sterilization Consumables Lead Product Growth

Sterilization consumables are projected to hold 28.7% of market share in 2025, making them the leading product segment. This dominance is tied to the enforcement of strict infection prevention measures, higher surgical volumes, and regulatory frameworks mandating sterile disposable products. Continuous innovation—such as eco-friendly sterilization wraps and faster disinfectants—will drive adoption, particularly in outpatient and specialty clinics.
