The rise in demand for medical gases from hospitals is owing to increasing chronic diseases, which is spurring the growth of Saudi Arabia medical gases market.
According to TechSci Research report, “Saudi Arabia Medical Gases Market – By Region, Forecast & Opportunities, 2017-2027”, the Saudi Arabia medical gases market stood at USD 393.85 million in 2021 and is anticipated to reach USD 629.51 million by 2027. This can be attributed to the prevalence of chronic diseases, necessitating the use of medical gases at various stages of disease management and control.
The Saudi government is investing heavily in hospital infrastructure throughout the country. Saudi Arabia’s medical gas market will continue to expand, not only in hospitals and clinics, but also in other areas such as industrial, food, and chemical sectors. Linde Plc oversees long-term supplies of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and ammonia. The growing aging population, which is predisposed to chronic conditions, is expected to have an indirect impact. Medical oxygen is typically prescribed by healthcare practitioners to patients who are admitted due to a chronic illness or who are undergoing a surgical procedure due to any type of chronic disease. This, in turn, is expected to boost the share of the Saudi Arabia medical gases market. Therefore, manufacturers in the medical gases market are advised to concentrate on the medical gases segment in order to ensure proper supply of medical gases to hospitals and other areas of usage.

The Saudi Arabia medical gases market is segmented into type, application, end-user, region, and by company. Based on type, the market can be split into pure gases and gas mixtures. Pure gases held the largest market share of around 73.58% in 2021. This can be attributed to the prevalence of respiratory problems such as asthma, bronchiolitis, and lower respiratory tract infections including Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which is quite high, necessitating the use of various medical gases during treatment. Long-term use of oxygen may help relieve the strain on the heart and aid in the prevention of pulmonary artery hypertension.
Based on application, the market is divided into therapeutic and diagnostics. The therapeutic-based application dominated the market in 2021 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. This is because gases used for therapeutic purposes are used for the treatment of various diseases including respiratory diseases. During labor and childbirth, nitrous oxide and oxygen blends provide effective pain relief. After the baby is born, nitric oxide is used as a therapeutic inhalant to provide respiratory support for newborns. Nitrous oxide has applications outside of the respiratory system; when used in liquid form, it is an essential component in cryotherapy.
Based on end user, the market is bifurcated into hospitals & clinics, ambulatory care centers, homecare, and Others. Hospitals & clinics accounted for the largest market share in the Saudi Arabia medical gases market, due to majority of surgeries, emergency responses, and intensive care offered in hospitals. Therefore, demand for medical gases is high in this segment. Furthermore, large patient pool in the hospitals and clinics led to the dominant share of the segment in 2021 and the trend is likely to continue through 2027.
