Orthopedic contract manufacturing involves the outsourcing of the production of orthopedic devices and implants to specialized manufacturers who manage the design, prototyping, and full-scale production processes. These manufacturers are responsible for ensuring high-quality standards, meeting regulatory requirements, and delivering products on time for orthopedic companies that require tailored solutions.
The primary categories of orthopedic contract manufacturing include implants, instruments, cases, and trays. Implants are medical devices or tissues inserted into or placed on the body to replace a missing biological structure, support a damaged one, or enhance an existing structure. These services encompass various processes such as forging or casting, hip machining and finishing, knee machining and finishing, spine and trauma services, instrument machining and finishing, and other specialized services for devices across different classes, such as class I, class II, and class III medical devices. Common applications involve bone fixation, bone replacement, and other orthopedic procedures.

This orthopedic contract manufacturing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The orthopedic contract manufacturing market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $8.67 billion in 2024 to $9.66 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including the rising demand for minimally invasive procedures, an aging population, a growing preference for customized orthopedic solutions, an increase in sports-related injuries, and heightened health awareness.
The orthopedic contract manufacturing market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $14.72 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1%. The growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by the increasing use of robotics in orthopedic surgery, growing healthcare digitization, a rise in orthopedic surgeries, a demand for more personalized orthopedic solutions, and greater awareness of bone health. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in 3D printing technology, the integration of robotics with technology, the development of smart implants, the use of digital twins in manufacturing, and innovations in wearable orthopedic devices.
The growing number of road accidents is expected to drive the expansion of the orthopedic contract manufacturing market. Road accidents refer to unforeseen incidents on public roads involving at least one moving vehicle, resulting in injuries, fatalities, or property damage. The increase in these accidents is mainly attributed to distracted driving, as more drivers engage with mobile phones, in-car technologies, and other distractions that take their focus off the road. Orthopedic contract manufacturing plays a vital role in recovery from road accidents by enabling the quick production of high-quality implants and devices that are crucial for treating traumatic bone and joint injuries. For example, in 2023, the Transport Accident Commission, a government agency in Australia, reported 295 fatalities on Victorian roads, marking a 22.4% increase with 54 more deaths than in 2022. As such, the rise in road accidents is contributing to the growth of the orthopedic contract manufacturing market.
