Increasing demand for medical devices arising from increasing incidence of chronic diseases, aging population and advancement in healthcare is a major driver of the medical device contract manufacturing market. Growing demand for new high-end equipment and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) collaborate with contractors to increase productivity and reduce costs. This collaborative effort that also draws attention building on similar core competencies enables faster production timelines and enhances world-class medical technology. 

The adoption of advanced manufacturing technologies such as automation, 3D printing, and robotics is revolutionizing medical device contract manufacturing. These innovations increase, lower production, accuracy time, permitting cost-powerful customization of the medical devices. For instance, 3D printing permits rapid prototyping and production of complex scientific tool parts, at the same time as automation guarantees steady and scalable product quality and increases innovation and efficiency in the medical device contract manufacturing industry.

North America dominated the medical device contract manufacturing market share in 2023 with 36.1% revenue. Notably, there are many established biotechnology, pharmaceutical and medical device companies. In addition, increasing R&D investments by life sciences and pharmaceutical companies are expected to increase the sector’s demand for contract manufacturing independently. Strict regulation manufacturing and quality issues are also expected to provide opportunities for growth in medical device contract manufacturing.
