Industry Overview
The Global Hospital Bed Market is expected to reach USD 5.7 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period ranging from 2025 to 2030.
Hospital beds, also referred to as medical beds, are a part of medical equipment. These beds are specially designed to provide optimal comfort, relief, convenience, and assistance to patients who need medical care and bedridden patients. These beds offer better positioning, help in patient transfer, and eliminate the risk of falling. These beds also improve blood circulation. There are different types of medical beds available, such as general beds, pediatric beds, bariatric beds, and birthing beds.
The growth of the global hospital bed market is driven by the rising number of chronic and lifestyle diseases and an ever-growing aging population. Furthermore, rapid technological developments and a rise in demand fuel the market growth.
The continually declining number of beds in public hospitals is one significant challenge to the market growth. However, the higher demand for hospital beds in homecare settings is creating novel growth opportunities.
