Nebulizer Market By Type (Jet Nebulizer, Mesh Nebulizer, and Ultrasonic Nebulizer), By Portability (Portable Nebulizer and Tabletop Nebulizer), By End Users (Hospitals and Clinics, Emergency Centers, and Homecare Setting), Industry Trends, Estimation & Forecast, 2023-2030

Market Definition

The nebulizer is a medical equipment used by people suffering from asthma or another respiratory condition. The nebulizer turns liquid medicine into a mist that a person can inhale through a face mask or mouthpiece. Nebulizers are available in two model’s tabletop and portable models. Tabletop nebulizers are larger and have to plug them into an electrical outlet. Portable nebulizers run on batteries or can plug them into a car outlet.

Nebulizer market was valued at 849.9 million US$ in 2022 and is projected to reach 1265.3 million US$ by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period.

Market Dynamics

Rising prevalence of COPD, asthma, and other respiratory diseases are key driving factors of the market. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), each year 65 million people suffer from the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and 3 million dies from it, which makes it the 3rd leading cause of death globally. Globally 334 million people have asthma, affecting 14% of all children. Each year 10 million people develop tuberculosis (TB), and 1.4 million dies from it. About 1.6 million people die each year from Lung cancer. About 4 million people die prematurely from the chronic respiratory disease globally. The nebulizer is used by people with asthma or another respiratory condition used to administer medication to the lungs. However, the availability of substitute products might hamper the market growth. Nebulizers can be an alternative to inhalers. The inhalers are easy to carry, compare to the nebulizer. Inhalers are still in the developing phase with regulatory approvals and clinical studies on them. The companies are commercializing new inhalers in the market, which might hinder the market growth. Moreover, rising demand for home healthcare devices would provide lucrative opportunities for the market in the coming years.

Market Segmentation

The global nebulizer market is mainly classified based on type, portability, and end-users. Type is further segmented into Jet Nebulizer, Mesh Nebulizer, and Ultrasonic Nebulizer. By portability, the market is divided into Portable Nebulizer and Tabletop Nebulizer. By end-users, the market is further divided into Hospitals and Clinics, Emergency Centers, and Homecare settings.

Mesh nebulizer has shown significant growth in 2019, due to the increasing commercialization of new products and regulatory approval of mesh nebulizer. For instance, Convexity Scientific, a MedTech company committed to innovative design and distribution strategies, has introduced FLYP nebulizer, a handheld vibrating mesh nebulizer that is poised to treat pulmonary conditions such as asthma and COPD. Convexity Scientific has also raised $3.5 million to support the commercial growth of the product and expand the FLYP nebulizer market reach.
