Market Driver

Healthcare facilities are enhancing their emergency preparedness to address the rising number of medical emergencies caused by various factors, including outdoor and industrial accidents, wars, fire breakouts, and natural calamities.

Market Challenges

• The regulatory environment for hospital beds manufacturing is stringent in various countries, leading manufacturers to invest heavily in meeting quality and operational standards. This increases production costs, prompting a premium pricing strategy. For instance, automated hospital beds in the US cost between USD800 and USD2,000, while other players offer products at USD500 and above. Weak distribution channels in rural markets, operated by local suppliers, increase costs due to lower order values and consumption volumes. High product prices are affordable for customers in developed markets but are a barrier for consumers in underdeveloped markets, where government regulations on supply and distribution are crucial. This limits product penetration and consumption volume in developing markets, posing a challenge to the hospital beds market’s growth during the forecast period.
