Apheresis equipment refers to specialized medical devices designed to isolate and extract specific components from blood while returning the remaining components to the donor or patient. These devices are used to separate and remove particular harmful or therapeutic blood elements, such as plasma, white blood cells, platelets, or stem cells, from a donor or patient.
The key types of apheresis equipment include plasmapheresis equipment, photopheresis equipment, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apheresis equipment, and others. Plasmapheresis equipment is a medical device that isolates and removes plasma from the blood to treat autoimmune and plasma-related disorders, thereby supporting patient recovery. The technologies employed in this equipment include centrifugation and membrane filtration. These devices are applied in areas such as renal diseases, hematology, neurology, and more, with key end-users including hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs), blood donation centers, and other healthcare facilities.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The fast surge in U.S. tariffs and the trade tensions that followed in spring 2025 are heavily affecting the medical equipment sector, particularly for imported imaging machine components, surgical-grade stainless steel, and plastic disposables. Hospitals and clinics resist price hikes, pressuring manufacturers' margins. Regulatory hurdles compound the problem, as tariff-related supplier changes often require re-certification of devices, delaying time-to-market. Companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing critical parts, expanding domestic production of commoditized items, and accelerating R&D in cost-efficient materials.
The apheresis equipment market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides apheresis equipment market statistics, including apheresis equipment industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the apheresis equipment market share, apheresis equipment market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the apheresis equipment industry. This apheresis equipment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The apheresis equipment market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.84 billion in 2024 to $4.33 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.8%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing number of surgical procedures requiring component therapy, rising demand for personalized medicine approaches, expanding applications in oncology and neurology, growing government support for blood disorder treatments, and improvements in the efficiency and precision of apheresis procedures.
The apheresis equipment market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.92 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the rising incidence of rare genetic diseases, increasing demand for targeted blood component therapies, growing frequency of trauma and accident cases, escalating number of elderly patients requiring blood treatments, and an increase in chronic disease-related hospitalizations. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in portable and compact apheresis devices, development of AI-integrated monitoring systems, innovations in blood component separation technologies, emergence of personalized apheresis protocols, and expansion of home-based apheresis solutions.
The increasing prevalence of blood disorders is expected to drive the growth of the apheresis equipment market in the coming years. Blood disorders are conditions that affect various components of the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, or plasma. The rising incidence of these disorders is largely attributed to the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, which directly impact blood health and require continuous monitoring. Apheresis equipment facilitates effective management of blood disorders by allowing precise separation and removal of specific blood components. These advanced technologies enhance patient care by improving safety, reducing procedure time, and optimizing treatment efficiency. For example, in April 2024, the Perth Blood Institute, an Australia-based non-profit organization, reported that the number of people diagnosed with hemophilia, a genetic disorder in which blood lacks proper clotting factors, leading to prolonged bleeding rose from 233,577 in 2021 to 257,146 in 2022. Consequently, the rising prevalence of blood disorders is fueling the growth of the apheresis equipment market.
Companies in the apheresis equipment market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as advanced venous access techniques, to enhance patient comfort, reduce procedure duration, and improve treatment efficiency. Venous access techniques involve technologies designed to make the insertion of needles or catheters into veins safer, easier, and more efficient. For instance, in April 2023, Fresenius Kabi AG, a Germany-based medical technology company, introduced a single-needle venous access option for its Amicus extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) system. This solution allows clinicians to seamlessly switch between single-needle and double-needle access during procedures, includes advanced software upgrades, and utilizes a single-use disposable kit for easy setup, further streamlining clinical workflows. It enhances patient comfort, minimizes the risk of complications, and improves the overall efficiency of apheresis treatments.
