The blood and blood components market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In recent times, there has been a consistent growth in the size of the blood and blood components market. This market is predicted to expand from $41.36 billion in 2024 to $43.2 billion in 2025, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5%.
The historic growth of this market is linked to factors such as a rise in trauma and road accident incidents, an aging population, higher income levels and living standards, greater spend on healthcare, and heightened consciousness about blood donation.
The blood and blood components market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market for blood and blood components is projected to experience substantial growth in the coming years, with size expected to increase to $53.56 billion by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%.
This anticipated growth during the forecast period is primarily due to an upsurge in chronic illnesses, government schemes, and an increased requirement for whole blood. Key trends during this period involve strategic collaborations with other market participants, the introduction of innovative offerings, prioritizing research and development (R&D), employing IoT-based products to prevent contamination of blood and its components, and emphasis on effective blood transfusion management.
The demand for blood and blood components is escalating due to the rising occurrence of trauma incidents and road accidents. Often, conditions like hemorrhaging can cause the blood volume to deplete substantially, beyond the body's capability to replenish it swiftly. Furthermore, road accidents can lead to significant blood loss that must be immediately compensated for. These situations necessitate the infusion of blood and blood components into the patient's body. For example, data from the Transport Accident Commission, an Australian government agency, revealed that in 2023 there were 295 fatalities on Victorian roads, representing a 22.4% increase (54 additional deaths) compared to 2022. Moreover, fatalities from crashes rose by 22 (9%) to 261 from 239 reported in the previous year. The surge in disease prevalence and rising road accident and trauma cases contribute to an increased demand for blood, thereby propelling the market growth.
