Market Driver

The global population of older adults, defined as individuals aged 65 years and above, is growing at an accelerated rate. According to The World Bank Group, approximately 8.87% of the world's population falls into this category. This demographic trend is driven by increasing life expectancy and declining fertility rates. In developed and developing countries alike, older adults constitute a significant portion of the population. For instance, Japan and Germany each have over 30% and 22% of their populations aged 65 and above, respectively. The older population's increased dependency on healthcare services is a key driver for the hospital furniture market. Chronic conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, cancer, obesity, heart diseases, and asthma are prevalent among this demographic. As the immune system weakens with age, older adults are more susceptible to these diseases. Consequently, there is a growing demand for better healthcare services and hospital furniture, particularly beds, to cater to this population segment. In developing and underdeveloped nations, manual beds are the preferred choice due to their affordability. Older adults, who often require long-term care and home care, opt for manual beds over expensive automated hospital beds. However, the increasing disposable income and the rise of sophisticated healthcare facilities have made semi-automated hospital beds more accessible to consumers. As the consumption of all types of hospital beds increases with the growing older population, the global hospital furniture market is poised for substantial growth during the forecast period. The older population's health issues include arthritis, vision and eye diseases, body aches and muscle pain, Alzheimer's disease and dementia, and heart diseases. During hospitalization, patients require beds depending on the type of medical services, such as critical or intensive care, acute care, or long-term care. The rising older population across the world will drive the demand for home healthcare solutions, leading to increased sales of healthcare support products like beds. 

The Hospital Furniture Market is witnessing significant growth, with key products including Stretchers, Hospital Beds, Chairs, Scrub Sinks, Waste Containers, and Trolleys. The Beds segment is further segmented into ICU Beds, Fowler Beds, Ordinary Hospital Beds, Pediatric Beds, Maternity Beds, and more. The Chairs sector includes Birthing Chairs, Dialysis Chairs, Ophthalmology Chairs, ENT Chairs, Dentistry Chairs, Pediatric Chairs, Bariatric Chairs, and Geriatric Chairs. End users include Hospitals, Diagnostic Centers, and Clinics. Physician's Furniture includes Examination Stools, Lights, and Drawers, while Patient's Furniture includes Examination Sofas, Over-bed Tables, and Benches. Staff's Furniture includes Surgical Chairs and Examining Tables. This market caters to various end-users and applications, especially for those with chronic conditions like diabetes and cardiac arrest. Additionally, Wheelchairs and Walkers are essential mobility aids for patients.
