Opportunity: Growth potential in emerging economies
Emerging markets such as China, India, Brazil, and Mexico are expected to offer significant growth opportunities to players operating in the Medical Tapes and Bandages Market. This can primarily be attributed to the rising trend of medical tourism in these emerging countries. The availability of high-quality surgical treatments at lower costs is the key factor attracting patients towards these countries for undergoing elective surgeries. The increasing popularity of cosmetic surgeries and developing healthcare infrastructure in emerging countries are the other major factors that are expected to offer growth opportunities to market players. In order to leverage the high growth opportunities for medical tapes and bandages in emerging markets, manufacturers are strategically focusing on expanding their presence in these markets.
Regulatory policies in the Asia-Pacific region are more adaptive and business-friendly due to the less stringent regulations and data requirements. Moreover, the increasing competition in mature markets will further compel the manufacturers of medical tapes and bandages to focus on emerging markets.
Challenge: Increasing pricing pressure on market players
In response to the increasing government pressure for reducing healthcare costs, several healthcare providers have aligned themselves with group purchasing organizations (GPOs) and integrated health networks (IHNs). These organizations aggregate the purchasing volume of their members and bargain for a competitive price with suppliers as well as manufacturers of surgical devices. GPOs and IHNs negotiate heavily for the bulk purchase of surgical products.
For instance, IPC Group Purchasing (IPC) supplies medical products, including bandages, dressings, medical tapes, and many other products from 3M, Covidien, ConvaTec, CareFusion, Welch Allyn, and a number of other companies to its network of 21 hospitals. Due to high volume purchases, IPC negotiates with its suppliers for prices and transfers the benefits to its customers as well. As a result, through bulk purchasing, IPC supplies all medical products at around 15% lesser price to its customers.
This bulk purchasing trend is increasing the pricing pressure on market players and decreasing their profit margins. Furthermore, small and medium-sized manufacturers that offer a limited range of medical tapes and bandages are facing a significant burden owing to the increasing power of GPOs and IHNs in the US. However, it is expected that the rising focus on the development of low-cost products will reduce the impact of this challenge to a certain extent in the coming years.
