Global Refurbished Medical Equipment Market Size, Share, Opportunities, COVID-19 Impact, And Trends By Product Type (Operating Room Equipment & Surgical Equipment, Patient Monitors, Defibrillators, Medical Imaging Equipment, Cardiovascular & Cardiology Equipment X-ray Machines, EEG Machines, Endoscopy Equipment, Intensive Care Units, Neonatal Intensive Care Units, Other Equipment), By End-User (Hospitals and Clinics, Diagnostic Centres), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

The refurbished medical equipment market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.94% between 2025 to 2030.

Refurbished Medical Equipment is restored medical devices that are refitted to be used in medical operations. Refurbishment intends to extend the overall life of the medical equipment, thus proving significant benefits from an environmental and social perspective. Refurbishing of medical equipment is done through reconditioning, repairing and installation, and up-gradation of certain software hardware and software components without changing the intended use of the device. Buying new medical equipment can be an expensive proposition for many Hospitals and healthcare centres, refurbished medical equipment serves as a cost-effective alternative for these healthcare institutions. Recent trends have indicated an increasing use of refurbished medical devices in emerging countries owing to a large population base suffering from chronic diseases and growing demand for low-cost medical equipment. Moreover, the growth in the market can be attributed to financial constraints faced by hospitals, the availability of a large-scale inventory of used or old medical devices, and the growing demand for capital-intensive imaging equipment. Besides, a growing trend in medical tourism and rising private healthcare institutions are further driving the demand in the refurbished medical equipment market.

Furthermore, changing consumer preferences and trends toward reusable and eco-friendly solutions are augmenting the demand in the market. The demand for refurbished medical equipment is comparatively higher in middle and low-income countries, growing demand in these markets can be attributed to the poor and limited availability of healthcare solutions. Thus, refurbished medical equipment proves to be an affordable alternative in these countries, thereby propelling growth in the refurbished medical equipment market. However, stringent regulations on imports, negative perception about the quality of products among end-users, and lack of standardization concerning the sale and adoption of refurbished medical devices are estimated to hamper the growth in the market.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease negatively impacted the Refurbished Medical Equipment market. The market was expanding at a notable rate before the market downturn but is likely to grow once the pandemic passes. The pandemic led to supply chain disruptions in the refurbished Medical Equipment market and affected the production of parts, assembly, and shipments globally. Owing to the surge in demand for medical devices, hospitals, and other healthcare institutions were stretching the lifetime of their existing equipment, thereby leading to reduced trade-ins for refurbished medical devices. For instance, GE Healthcare witnessed a 10% decline in the refurbishment of medical equipment.

The Refurbished Medical Equipment market has been segmented based on product type and geography. Geographically, the analyzers market is segmented into North American, European, Asian Pacific, South American, and the Middle East and African region.

Medical Imaging Equipment to hold a significant market share

By product type, the Refurbished Medical Equipment market has been classified into Patient monitors, Medical Imaging Equipment, Operating room and surgical equipment, Neurology Equipment, Endoscopy Equipment, Intensive Care Equipment, and Other Medical Equipment. The Medical Imaging equipment-based segment is anticipated to propel at a noteworthy CAGR until the end of the forecast period. The dominant position in the market can be attributed to the presence of a large portfolio of products under the medical imaging product line and the rising number of hospital and imaging centres across the world. Medical imaging equipment assists in taking an image of the body and facilitate the correct diagnosis of the underlying issue. As this equipment involve advanced technological systems, the cost of procuring this equipment is greater. Hence refurbished equipment provides customers with a wide array of cost-effective options, thereby driving demand in the market.

The hospital segment holds a significant market share

By end-user, the Refurbished Medical Equipment market has been classified into Hospitals, Diagnostics centres, and others. The Hospital-based segment is anticipated to propel at a noteworthy CAGR until the end of the forecast period. The dominant market share in the Hospital sector can be attributed to the rising demand for affordable hospital treatment and the growing need for affordable solutions in emerging economies.

The Asia Pacific region to witness lucrative growth opportunities

Geographically, the distribution of the global market has been done in North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific. The Asia Pacific region is expected to propel at a notable annual growth rate over the forecasted period. The factors supporting the growth in the region are the increasing demand for healthcare institutions and imaging centres along with a growing focus on rural health development by both government and private institutions. Additionally, increasing the privatization of healthcare centres, a large population base, and the growing demand for cost-effective refurbished medical equipment are estimated to drive growth in the market. Furthermore, supportive government initiatives and regulatory policies are projected to further augment the demand in the market.

Participation by market players

The market players are actively participating in form of increased investments in R&D for the launch of new innovative products to expand their market share and to meet the growing end-user requirements. For instance, GE Healthcare recently announced the acquisition of Zionexa, a leading innovator and manufacturer of oncology and neurology biomarkers. Similarly, Canon Medical Solutions received FDA approval for its One-Beat Spectral Cardiac CT.
