Europe Medical Device Contract Manufacturing Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The size of the medical device contract manufacturing market in the European region is projected to be growing at a CAGR of 8.28% from 2024 to 2029 and will be worth USD 35.17 billion by 2027 from USD 23.63 billion in 2024.

The rising demand for affordable medical devices propels the European medical device contract manufacturing market growth primarily. The adoption of medical device outsourcing has grown significantly by market participants in recent years. The benefits associated with outsourcing such as reduced costs and limited investments and manufacturing risks and the delivery of high-quality products while ensuring timely distribution. Medical device outsourcing further helps the companies of medical devices by providing access to gather critical data from various sources, which can guide their investment decisions in the medical device market. Likewise, companies of medical devices use medical device outsourcing to optimize their operations, enhance their competitiveness, and meet the demands of an evolving healthcare landscape.

The rising prevalence of chronic diseases across Europe is another notable factor contributing to the growth of the European medical device contract manufacturing market. Approximately 35% of the European population suffers from chronic diseases and the prevalence is anticipated to grow in the coming years and contribute to the increasing demand for medical devices and result in the growth of medical device outsourcing eventually. The aging population in the region is more susceptible to chronic diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and arthritis, creating a need for continuous monitoring of these conditions through remote patient monitoring devices. These devices can monitor vital parameters like blood pressure, sugar levels, and heart rate and store the data for healthcare providers to review and act upon. As a result, the medical device contract manufacturing market is witnessing high demand in the European region. Healthcare providers are increasingly relying on outsourcing to procure cost-effective, high-quality medical devices and equipment to manage the growing patient population effectively. With the market projected to continue expanding, outsourcing presents a viable solution for companies looking to capitalize on this trend and meet the needs of an evolving healthcare landscape.

The manufacturing of advanced medical devices incorporating cutting-edge technologies promotes the growth rate of the European medical device contract manufacturing market. Companies that offer medical device outsourcing solutions to medical device companies are usually equipped with various advanced technologies including sensors, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and robotics to offer best-in-class services and enhance the efficacy of medical devices in the treatment process. In addition, factors such as the growing number of clinical trial centers, rising support from the governments of European countries, and increasing number of medical device approvals further boost the growth rate of the European market.

On the other hand, the growing competition between the medical device outsourcing companies, lack of awareness among the medical device companies regarding the potential benefits of medical device outsourcing in some countries, high costs associated with the medical device manufacturing, and long-time approval for the novel product primarily hamper the European market growth.
