Medical tubing is created for a number of applications that allow clinicians to administer fluid and devices or allow for gas flow.
General applications of medical tubing include ventilators and IVs, but tubing also finds uses supporting access devices and as a delivery method for other devices.
For instance, tubing can be used to drive catheters in cardiac catheterizations to test for heart disease and find narrowing blood vessels, measure pressure and oxygen levels in different parts of the heart, check pump functions, biopsy, diagnose congenital heart defects and identify heart valve issues using catheterizations.
Varied uses can require different materials and highly specialized manufacturing methods.
There are a variety of materials correlated with medical tubing, all of which have varying physical parameters like temperature range, pressure capabilities and chemical resistance.
Varying materials are needed for things like bulk disposable tubing, drug delivery systems, catheters, biopharmaceutical laboratory equipment and more.

The heightening cases of respiratory diseases, such as asthma, lung cancer, and pulmonary fibrosis, are anticipated to boost the product demand as it is a vital component of respiratory devices, such as ventilators, that facilitate breathing.
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has led to a rise in the cases of hospitalization, which resulted in high product demand for enhanced patient care.
In Intensive Care Units (ICUs), disposable medical equipment is important for patient care, resulting in the increased demand for medical tubing as it is one of the important components of various medical devices.
Towering concerns about hospital-acquired diseases, coupled with increasing awareness of pertaining to the spread of such infections, is projected to augment the command for disposable medical devices.
Key Trends: Growth Determinants and Challenges
Increase in geriatric population
The geriatric population notably has thrived the need for medical devices that incorporate tubing, thus driving the medical tubing market. According to the United Nations (UN) World Populations Ageing report 2020, there were an estimated 727 million people aged 65 years or above in the world. This number is projected to double by 2050. With the advancing healthcare system, life expectancy is also improving in these countries. This demographic trend will increase the demand for portable, lightweight medical devices and tubing. The use of devices such as home care equipment, patient monitoring equipment, and enteral tube feeding equipment will show a rapid growth rate in these regions.
Stringent and time consuming approval process
Stringent and time-consuming regulatory policies restrict the commercialization of medical products. Regulating agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Science Foundation (NSF), Drug Administration (DA), and Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) set regulations for the production of medical tubing, as safety and prevention of health hazards are important for these tubing because they come in direct contact with the body.

- Ethylene Vinly Acetate (EVA)
The Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) segment led the market and accounted for more than 29.5% of the global revenue share. The rising commonness of single-use pre-sterilized medical devices has led to the increased demand for PVC-based medical devices. PVC can also be sterilized using irradiation and ethylene oxide sterilization methods. PVC is biocompatible, transparent, and resistant to chemicals, due to which, it is the most preferred material in medical tube manufacturing.
Based on Structure
- Single- Lumen
- Co-extruded
- Multi-Lumen
- Tapered or Bump Tubing
- Braided Tubing
The single-lumen segment led the medical tubing market and valued at USD 1.44 Billion. This is primarily attributed to wide applications of single-lumen structure of medical tubing in urological, IV, and drainage catheter.
Based on Application
- Bulk Disposable Tubing
- Catheters and Cannulas
- Drug Delivery System
- Special Application
The bulk disposable tubing application segment accounted for the largest market share and valued at USD 1.52 Billion. Growth of this segment is driven by increasing focus towards prevention of infection from one patient to another.
