Wheelchairs are the most commonly used personal mobility devices in APAC. The increasing number of physically challenged and elderly people in Asia Pacific is propelling the demand for wheelchairs. Furthermore, the growing incidence of chronic diseases and road accidents is driving the wheelchair market in the region. 

In 2017, according to WHO estimates, between 20 and 50 million individuals suffer from nonfatal injuries, with several of them becoming disabled as a result. 90% of all traffic accidents occur in middle-income countries. In 2016, 12.4% of the population in the region was aged 60 years or older.

However, by 2050, this number is expected to increase to more than a quarter, or 1.3 billion people. It is estimated that roughly a third of the population in East and North Asia (which includes countries such as Japan and the Republic of Korea with significant aging populations) would be aged 60 years or older, as compared to one in every four individuals in North and Central Asia by 2050.
