Soft Mist Inhalers Market Size is valued at USD 2.5 Bn in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 4.1 Bn by the year 2031 at a 6.4% CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031.
A soft mist inhaler is a device designed to administer medication to the lungs in the form of a finely dispersed mist that moves slowly. This inhaler differs from standard inhalers in that it does not use a propellant or necessitate forceful inhalation. Instead, it generates a mist that is more easily inhaled, rendering it particularly beneficial for individuals with respiratory problems such as asthma or COPD. This device is portable, easy to use, and specifically engineered to effectively deliver medication to the lungs with reduced reliance on precise breathing techniques. Furthermore, the rising incidence of respiratory disorders such as congestive heart failure, cystic fibrosis, and asthma has led to a boom in the need for effective nebulizer inhalation devices, including soft mist inhalers (SMIs).
However, the market growth is hampered by the strict rules and regulations criteria for the safety and health of the soft mist inhalers market and the product's inability to prevent fog in environments with dramatic temperature fluctuations or high soft mist inhalers because Manufacturers of inhalers face difficulties in meeting regulatory requirements. Product approvals are slower and more expensive due to stringent standards for safety, effectiveness, quality control, and gadget performance, which slows down the market. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected the worldwide market and forced the closure of numerous factories to protect their personnel from contracting the virus, the expansion of the industry may be hindered.
The soft mist inhalers market is segmented based on type, application type, age group, and end-user. Based on type, the market is segmented into disposable and reusable. By application type, the market is segmented into asthma, COPD, and others. By age group, the market is segmented into adults and paediatrics. The end-user market Comprises hospitals, clinics, and others.
The reusable soft mist inhalers market will hold a major global market share. Because they produce less waste than disposable inhalers, reusable inhalers align with the rising tide of sustainability and environmental awareness in healthcare. Reusable SMIs among both patients and healthcare professionals, which in turn led to their enormous expansion.
The rising incidence of respiratory ailments, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and asthma, is propelling the need for efficient inhalation devices. As per the 2021 factsheet published by the World Health Organization, the global prevalence of asthma is estimated to impact 262 million individuals, while chronic obstructive pulmonary disease presents a substantial health obstacle as well.
The North American soft mist inhalers market is expected to record the maximum market revenue share in the near future. It can be attributed to the region's improved healthcare infrastructure and facilities, the high number associated with those suffering from asthma and COPD, cutting-edge medicines, influential figures, and increased healthcare spending. In addition, Europe is estimated to grow rapidly in the global soft mist inhalers market because of its large elderly population, rising standard of living, rising healthcare costs, and many developmental initiatives.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
The contributors who typically take part in such a course include, but are not limited to:
Data Modeling and Analysis:
In the iterative process (mentioned above), data models received inputs from primary as well as secondary sources. But analysts working on these models were the key. They used their extensive knowledge and experience about industry and topic to make changes and fine-tuning these models as per the product/service under study.
The standard data models used while studying this market were the top-down and bottom-up approaches and the company shares analysis model. However, other methods were also used along with these – which were specific to the industry and product/service under study.
