According to a new report titled, "Manual Wheelchair Market by Category, Design & Function, and End User: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2018-2025," the global manual wheelchair market was valued at USD 2,609.7 million in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 4,099.1 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 5.8% from 2018 to 2025. Manual wheelchairs are specifically designed for use by individuals with mobility, lower extremity, and spinal cord disabilities. Specific needs regarding style, weight, comfort, and performance are taken into consideration while designing these chairs. These chairs help individuals to prevent pressure ulcers and shoulder injuries as well as help maintain a good posture. Various features and accessories are added to the chair to cater to the requirements of the end-user.
These include fixed or detachable arms, fixed or adjustable height, and full length or desk length arm. Other factors such as a rise in spinal cord injuries rise in the incidence of disabilities, and accidents coupled with growth in government expenditure on healthcare are expected to open new avenues for the manual wheelchair market players in the future. However, the inclination of consumers toward electric and automated wheelchairs hinders the growth of the manual wheelchair market. Emerging trends that have a direct impact on the dynamics of the wheelchair industry include improved wheelchair efficiency to provide more comfort and convenience, an increase in adoption of power assistance devices, and a rise in the adoption of a hybrid concept in a wheelchair.
In addition, greater strength and durability of material along with less moving parts have considerably reduced the maintenance cost that leads to increased adoption of an adult wheelchair. Thus, recent advancements in material and engineering design of manual wheelchairs are expected to drive the growth of the wheelchair market during the forecast period.
