The global steam autoclaves market size reached US$ 2.5 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 4.0 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2% during 2023-2028.
A steam autoclave refers to a pressure chamber that is used for sterilizing industrial equipment and machinery. This process is commonly used for disinfecting surgical equipment, laboratory instruments, solids, liquids and hollow surfaces. The items are exposed to high-temperature steam and pressure to neutralize the pathogens, such as bacteria, spores and germs that are resistant to boiling water and powerful detergents. Some of the commonly available variants include table-top, vertical, horizontal, floor standing, etc. They consist of a control system, thermostatic trap, safety valve, waste-water cooling mechanism, vacuum system and steam generator. Autoclaves are available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes and can be customized according to the requirement of the user.
Significant growth in the medical industry is one of the key factors creating a positive impact on the market. Also, the increasing instances of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) have enhanced the demand for steam autoclaves to disinfect medical instruments and prevent cross-transmission. Furthermore, the rising demand for efficient bio-hazard waste treatment methods is providing a boost to the market growth. Healthcare centers, pharmaceutical facilities, life science research centers and laboratories use steam autoclaves for equipment and waste sterilization. Various product innovations, such as the development of portable and robotized variants, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. These advanced autoclaves are easily transportable, require minimal space and offer improved sterilization capabilities. Other factors, including widespread product adoption by the aviation and aerospace industry for processing high-quality polymer structural components, are expected to drive the market further.
