The next 10 years, medical plastic products production will be a great future in emerging industrial property. This is because as the continued growth of China's national economy, per capita income will continue to increase the ranks of the middle class expanded. On the other hand, China has begun to enter the aging society, the domestic base of a large elderly population, their medical needs far more than middle-aged people, so medical plastic products will become China's medical device market, the growth of a new hot spot. In 2005, China Medical plastics market scale is about 12 billion to 150 billion yuan. Experts predict that, "Eleventh Five-Year" period of medical plastic products in China market is expected to rush 20 billion to 250 billion high.
60 years ago, the advent of plastics has been hailed as the 20th century, a major breakthrough in material science engineering. Since then, the cheap plastic of the new materials to replace the iron and steel, glass, rubber, wood and other traditional materials, are widely used in production of household goods, agricultural products (such as plastic film, etc.), machinery parts, packing materials, and even an aircraft / satellite components and so on. Since the age of 80 from the last century, plastics have quietly entered the field of medical products. From the plastic ampoules, plastic infusion / drip bottle, infusion / blood transfusion bags, disposable syringes, plastic pill bottles / medicine bottle, plastic aerosol device / dry powder inhaler to the hospital where a large-scale diagnostic equipment and medical trays, are plastic products. In the West, and even some surgical instruments have also been made to switch to plastic. Medical plastic products has become the fastest growing product of a medical device.
The development of China's medical plastic
Of medical plastic products in China started late, and the United States, Germany, Japan and other developed countries, China's medical plastics industry is still in its early stages, the overall level of technology lags far behind their Western peers. Such as the production of infusion bags, blood transfusion bags of high purity required for medical polypropylene material has still imported from Germany and other western countries. As for some of the high-end medical plastic products (such as artificial valves, artificial plastic blood vessels, artificial joints, etc.) in China is still being explored, has not yet formed a formal production.
At present, I made the biggest sales of medical plastic products are not very high technological content "seriously commoditised varieties", such as disposable syringes, infusion / blood transfusion bags, infusion bottles (sets) and a variety of plastic pharmaceutical packaging (such as bottles, ampoules, aluminum-plastic composite materials, etc.). Medical Association, according to the estimate of total output value of China's medical plastic products for medical plastics market worldwide is only 2% to 3%, annual per capita consumption of medical plastic products less than 50 billion yuan, with China's 1.3 billion people of this great country is not proportionate. In contrast, U.S. per capita consumption of medical plastic products more than 160 U.S. dollars.
The industry believes that the next 10 years, medical plastic products production will be a great future in emerging industrial property. This is because as the continued growth of China's national economy, per capita income will continue to increase the ranks of the middle class expanded. On the other hand, China has begun to enter the aging society, the domestic base of a large elderly population, their medical needs far more than middle-aged people, so medical plastic products will become China's medical device market, the growth of a new hot spot. In 2005, China Medical plastics market scale is about 12 billion to 150 billion yuan. Experts predict that, "Eleventh Five-Year" period of medical plastic products in China market is expected to rush 20 billion to 250 billion new height.
All in all, a wide variety of medical plastic products (from the regular medical supplies to the pedometer, electronic blood pressure monitors, blood glucose meter, digital thermometers and more high-end plastic implantable medical devices, etc.), market potential and broad prospects. Development of the domestic medical equipment industry should develop new types of medical plastic products in development planning, thereby narrowing the gap with Western countries.
