Market Overview:
The global manual wheelchair market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of disabilities, rising geriatric population, and growing awareness about disability benefits and rehabilitation therapies. In addition, technological advancements in manual wheelchairs are also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global manual wheelchair market is segmented into high duty manual wheelchair and lightweight manual wheelchair. The high duty segment is expected to account for a larger share of the global market than the lightweight segment during the forecast period. This can be attributed to factors such as increasing demand for durable wheelchairs and rising incidence of obesity-related disabilities across regions. Based on application, the global manual wheelchair market is divided into home use, hospital use, and others (including schools/colleges/universities).
Product Definition:
A manual wheelchair is a type of wheelchair that is propelled by the user pushing on the arms of the chair.
High Duty Manual Wheelchair:
High duty manual wheelchairs are primarily designed for people who need a lot of support and stability while performing day to day activities. These wheelchairs are built with very sturdy frames, which enable the users to carry heavy loads easily. The average weight capacity of these wheelchairs is around 350 pounds making them ideal for people who need assistance in lifting themselves up and down from their chairs frequently.
Lightweight Manual Wheelchair:
The lightweight manual wheelchair is a manually operated wheelchair that weighs less than 30kg. They are designed for people with limited strength and mobility. The chairs are available in two types - folding and non-folding varieties. Non-folding lightweight manual wheelchairs can be used by people who need to transfer from their beds or need to carry the chair along with them while traveling long distances, for example, when going on vacation or business trip.
Application Insights:
The home use segment held the largest share of over 70.0% in 2017. The growing acceptance of manual wheelchairs at homes instead of hospitals is expected to be a key factor for market growth over the forecast period. According to an article published by National Public Radio (NPR), ¢â‚¬Å“Hospitals are moving away from institutionalized care and toward more personalized, patient-centered models that emphasize prevention and wellness¢â‚¬ which is likely to drive demand for manual wheelchairs at homes as they can be used by patients for day-to-day activities without assistance or support from medical professionals.
The others application segment includes commercial facilities such as airports, seaports etc., where wheelchair availability depends on external factors such as weather, ground conditions etc.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the market in 2017 owing to increasing cases of arthritis and other disabilities among the population. According to a study published by National Center for Health Statistics, in 2016 around 11.3 million people used manual wheelchairs in U.S., representing a growth of nearly 8% from 2010. Moreover, high awareness levels about these devices and availability of highly skilled professionals are some other factors contributing towards regional growth rate.
Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest rate during forecast period due to rising geriatric population with chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing geriatric population: The global elderly population is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2016 to 2020, reaching 968 million by 2020. This will create a large pool of potential users for manual wheelchairs.
- Rising incidence of disabilities: According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are an estimated 1 billion people living with some form of disability worldwide, which is about 15% of the world's population. This number is only expected to grow in the coming years due to factors such as increasing life expectancy and rising rates of chronic diseases such as diabetes and arthritis. This will create greater demand for manual wheelchairs as a means for mobility and independence among people with disabilities.
- Growing awareness about benefits of manual wheelchair use: There has been an increase in awareness about the benefits that manual wheelchairs offer over powered wheelchairs, especially among seniors and those with limited mobility issues caused by age or illness/injury .This has led to an increase in demand for manual wheelchairs across all regions globally .
