Based on the product type, the global hypodermic needles market is segmented as follows:

• Safety Hypodermic Needles
  • Active Hypodermic Needles
    • Manual
    • Semiautomatic
  • Passive Hypodermic Needles
• Non-Safety Hypodermic Needles

Hypodermic needles are hollow needles with a sharp tip commonly used with a syringe to inject substances into the body and to extract fluids from body. On the basis of safety feature associated with the device, hypodermic needles are broadly segmented as safety and non-safety needles. In base year 2015, it was observed that safety needles market generated more than 80% of the revenue, as safety needles price is 3 to 4 times higher than non-safety needles and legislation mandating the use of safety devices in the healthcare industry, hence influencing the safety needles market growth. Moreover, increasing awareness and adoption of the use of safety needles would further driving the market growth during forecast period 2016-2024. Non-safety needles such as B.Braun’s Sterican, Becton’s PrecisionGlide and others are unprotected devices have a risk of harming the user, this would negatively impact market growth. It is anticipated that non-safety needles will show decline in market growth during the forecast period, due to increased awareness and adoption of the use of safety needles. B-Braun, Becton Dickinson and Co., Covidien plc. and Terumo Corp. are some key players in global safety and non-safety needles market while exel international is key manufacturer for non-safety needles only.  

On the basis of user requirement intervention to activate the safety mechanism, safety needles market is further segmented as active and passive (automatic) devices. Depending on mechanism of activating this safety feature active devices are further classified as manual and semiautomatic devices. Currently manual needles such as Covidien's Magellan, Becton’s Eclipse and others dominating the global safety needles market as these needles are available at low price as comparative semi-automated and passive (automatic) needle devices. However increasing compliance to semi-automatic and automatic/passive safety needles such as Becton’s Integra, Vigmed Swing, erumo's K-Pack SurShield and others drive the market growth during forecast period.

For the purpose of this study, the hypodermic needles market is categorized into:

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Latin America (LATAM)
• Middle East and Africa (MEA)

Hypodermic needle is hollow needle with sharp tip, commonly used with a syringe to inject substances into the body or extract fluids from body. Global Hypodermic needles market has been continuously developing and several factors such as mandatory use of safety needles in some countries, rising population and increasing healthcare demand influencing the hypodermic needles market growth continuously. However difficulties in the adoption of safety mechanisms by users and increasing needle-free injection devices may replace hypodermic needles in the future. In the base year 2015, North America is dominating market in terms of value and it is anticipated to grow steadily during forecast period of 2016-2024. Higher price of hypodermic needles, enforced legislation for the mandatory use of safety needles and increased awareness in North America are influencing the market growth. Currently, United States is major revenue contributing segment, followed by Canada. In terms of revenue Europe is second largest revenue generating segment. European countries such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK are major revenue generating regions. Factors such as anticipated legislation for safety oriented healthcare systems, advance technologies and higher cost of products contributed to the market growth in Europe. Progress of regulatory compulsions in the use of safety needles in Latin America would show significant growth during forecast period. Currently Asia Pacific is not major revenue contributor but due to increasing healthcare awareness, rising population and economic development it will show significant growth in future.
