FEP Heat Shrink Medical Tubing Market Size is valued at USD 136.1 Mn in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 241.9 Mn by the year 2031 at a 7.6% CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031.
FEP heat shrink tubing is a versatile material used in various medical applications for protecting, insulating, and reinforcing medical devices. It's made of fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP), a type of plastic known for its exceptional properties, including chemical resistance, high-temperature resistance, biocompatibility, electrical insulation, and lubricity. The FEP heat shrink medical tubing market is driven by the growing medical devices industry, rising minimally invasive surgeries and use of microcatheters, increasing population and subsequent burden of chronic illnesses among the populations.
However, the market growth is hampered by the high cost of the FEP compared to conventional materials and fluctuating raw material prices.
The FEP heat shrink medical tubing market is segmented based on heat shrink ratio, application, and product type. Based on heat shrink ratio, the market is segmented into 1.3:1, 1.6:1, and 2:1 and above. By application, the market is segmented into catheter delivery devices, surgical and vascular instruments, fixing flexible joints, electrical insulation and others. By product type, the market is segmented into standard FEP-HS tubing and peelable HS tubing.
The 1.6:1 FEP heat shrink medical tubing market is expected to hold a significant global market share in 2024. Many different medical devices use a 1.6:1 heat shrink ratio as it provides a balance between flexibility, durability, and size reduction. Its capacity to reduce the tubing to a particular ratio guarantees optimum performance and user-friendliness for devices requiring precision fitting, such as stent delivery systems, conduits, and guide wires.
The peelable HS tubing segment is the fastest-growing by-product type segment in the FEP heat shrink medical tubing market due to its distinct benefits and wide range of uses in the medical field. Peelable tubing provides a practical way to assemble and package medical devices because it makes removal simple and doesn't damage or leave residue behind. This function benefits the catheter manufacturing industry, where sterile and accurate assembly is essential.
The North American FEP heat shrink medical tubing market is expected to register the highest market share in revenue in the near future. It can be attributed to due to a variety of factors. These include the early adoption of minimally invasive medical techniques, a growing elderly population, and several patients within the region suffering from chronic conditions.
