The global oxygen market was worth $37.93 billion in 2019. It is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11% and reach $59.17 billion by 2023.
Increasing prevalence of various diseases related to breathing problems contributed to the global Oxygen market's growth by increasing use of Oxygen for medical purposes. Diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is more prevalent in the geriatric population. According to the United Nations (UN), the global geriatric population was 962 million in 2017 and is expected to reach 2.1 billion by 2050. Also, the Global Burden of Disease Study reports a prevalence of 251 million cases of COPD globally in 2016. Thus, the increased number of such cases has surged the demand for portable oxygen concentrators, therefore driving the Oxygen market's growth.
Lack of safety measures adopted while handling Oxygen in industries such as manufacturing, mining etc. limits the growth of the Oxygen market. Though oxygen is not flammable itself, but it can cause other materials to catch fire. Excess contact with liquid oxygen can cause severe skin and eye irritation and burns as well as frostbite. Further, any leak in oxygen containers if kept in poorly ventilated room can cause severe damage to life and property. For example, in June 2019, an air separation plant (ASU) in China exploded due to the leakage of Oxygen from its equipment. Therefore, lack of safety measures while handling Oxygen negatively affecting the Oxygen market.
Companies involved in the market are developing innovative ways to utilize oxygen in various industries such as medical, chemical etc. The rising need among patients across healthcare services acts as a driving force for the companies to find new innovating ways to improve oxygen delivery. In order to improve the oxygen delivery and to monitor the oxygen dosage to patients in respiratory care facilities, Camcon Medical in 2018 introduced Binary Actuation Technology (BAT). BAT is an innovative solution that aids in providing accurate dosage, reduces wastage by provided cost effective solution to the patients who require oxygen therapy. It is through such innovative methods that entities involved in the oxygen market are able to improve economic benefit of the products.
