Factors Affecting the Growth of the Male External Catheters Industry:

  • Rising Prevalence of Urinary Incontinence:

The increasing prevalence of urinary incontinence among men, particularly due to age-related conditions, such as prostate issues and neurological disorders, is catalyzing the demand for male external catheters (MECs). The rising need for effective management solutions, as urinary incontinence affects daily activities and the quality of life of individuals, is propelling the growth of the market. MECs offer a non-invasive, comfortable, and secure method to manage incontinence, providing an essential solution for those affected. In line with this, the growing awareness among individuals about the diagnosis of urinary incontinence is positively influencing the market.                                                          

  • Increasing Geriatric Population:

The escalating demand for MECs due to the rising geriatric population worldwide is contributing to the growth of the market. Older adults are more susceptible to conditions that compromise bladder control, necessitating reliable urinary management products. Moreover, increasing preferences for home healthcare solutions are propelling the market growth. These products enable older adults to manage their urinary incontinence independently, supporting their desire to live comfortably at home without much reliance on caregivers. The rising need for tailored healthcare products that address the unique challenges faced by elderly individuals is strengthening the market growth.

  • Technological Advancements:

Innovations in MEC design and materials benefit in enhancing user comfort, device reliability, and ease of use. Technological improvements include the development of hypoallergenic adhesives that reduce skin irritation, more anatomically accurate designs for improved fit, and materials that minimize the risk of infection. These advancements address many of the traditional barriers to MEC use, making the devices more appealing to a broader range of users. Apart from this, key manufacturers are investing in research and development (R&D) activities to offer enhanced satisfaction among individuals with urinary incontinence, which is impelling the market growth.
