The oxygen concentrators market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• There has been a robust expansion in the size of the oxygen concentrators market in the past few years. The market is projected to swell from $2.27 billion in 2024 to $2.39 billion in 2025, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3%.
Factors contributing to this growth during the historic period include the expansion of upcoming markets, a climate of low interest rates, a surge in respiratory diseases, an increasing older populace, escalating pollution levels, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the rising number of smokers in developing countries.
The oxygen concentrators market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market for oxygen concentrators is projected to experience robust expansion in the coming years, with its value estimated to reach $3.18 billion by 2029 growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%.
This growth over the forecast period is largely owing to the rise in the elderly population, growing emphasis on home-based healthcare, enhanced access to healthcare, and technological progression. Key trends observed during the forecast period include the evolution of intelligent oxygen concentrators, mobile oxygen concentrators, an uptick in strategic partnerships and acquisitions, technological breakthroughs, introduction of new payment schemes, and a rise in the count of patent registrations.
The rising incidence of respiratory diseases worldwide is fuelling the expansion of the oxygen concentrators market. Around the world, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are the predominant chronic respiratory conditions. For instance, the American Lung Association reported in February 2023 that over 34 million Americans suffer from chronic lung diseases like asthma and COPD, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Furthermore, asthma causes breathing difficulties for over 25 million Americans, including more than 4 million children. Thus, the escalating prevalence of respiratory ailments is propelling the growth of the oxygen concentrators market.
