Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 10/16/2017 --Inogen, Inc., Koninklijke Philips N.V., Chart Industries, Inc., and Invacare Corporation had collectively taken up 65.5% of the global medical oxygen concentrators market in 2015, pointing towards a highly consolidated market. Each of the above key players hold a considerable hold over the global medical oxygen concentrators market through a consistent rate of introduction of newer technologies.
Leaders in the global medical oxygen concentrators market also hold solid distribution networks within their core areas, making it even harder for new entrants to generate traction. The global medical oxygen concentrators market does face a moderate level of threat from substitutes such as oxygen therapy devices and liquid and gaseous oxygen cylinders, further creating a measurable barrier for players to climb.
The global medical oxygen concentrators market is projected to reach US$2.41 bn by the end of 2024, after expanding at a CAGR of 8.5% within a forecast period from 2016 to 2024. The market was calculated to reach US$1.25 bn by the end of 2016.
"Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, according to the WHO, is currently the fourth-leading cause of death, with close to 2.75 mn patients dying every year. COPD is further estimated to become the third-leading cause of death globally by 2030. The CDC adds that more than 16 mn U.S. citizens are currently living with lung cancer, COPD, smoking-related heart diseases, and other respiratory disorders.
These numbers are vital to the global medical oxygen concentrators market, as these patients are the core consumers of concentrated oxygen. Their difficulty in breathing compels them to inhale larger volumes of oxygen per breath, thereby giving rise to a greater demand for oxygen suppliers such as medical oxygen concentrators," states a TMR analyst.
The growing geriatric population is similarly providing a heavy demand for medical oxygen concentrators across the world and especially in the developed economies from North America and Europe. The elderly population in emerging economies is expected to rise at an extremely fast pace over the coming years, further fuelling the demand taken up by players from the global medical oxygen concentrators market.
The market is also being driven by the overall advantages that these units provide over conventional oxygen units in terms of portability and their ability to constantly filter oxygen through the surrounding air. Additionally, governments are growing highly aware of the massive demand for oxygen supply units and are coming forward with increasingly favorable reimbursement policies for patients, further increasing the overall target audience that can afford medical oxygen concentrators.

The global medical oxygen concentrators market does not face too many complications in terms of adoption rate and gaining favor in all regions. However, the high cost of medical oxygen concentrators is currently making it difficult to introduce these units into emerging economies. Statistics show that Asia Pacific and Latin America are bound to become high potential regions for the adoption of medical oxygen concentrators owing to their high population densities, swiftly evolving healthcare infrastructure, and the presence of large rural populations often too far away from healthcare support.
The reduction of costs of these units could massively benefit players trying to penetrate emerging economies in the long run. The global medical oxygen concentrators market is also facing a certain amount of negativity due to the fact that the units that function on continuous flow technology are in operation even when the patient does not need oxygen, thereby wasting it as well as over-consuming electricity.
