Wheelchair Market Dynamics
Driver: Growing Geriatric Population and Age-Related Issues
Aging generally reduces the ability & agility to move and perform physical tasks and, sometimes, maintain independent functioning. The rising geriatric population is most likely to create higher demand for mobility products, such as wheelchairs. Moreover, individuals in this age group are more prone to falls, which can cause fatal or nonfatal injuries, leading to mobility issues. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other falls research, over one-fourth of Americans aged 65+ years fall each year leading to injuries. According to Urban Institute, the number of Americans aged 65 years and above will double over the next four decades, reaching 80 million by 2040. The increasing geriatric population coupled with rising incidents of falls is projected to drive demand for mobility aids.
Driver: Availability of Technologically Advanced, Compact, and Portable Mobility Aids
The introduction of advanced walking aids has led to market growth. For instance, wheelchairs are now equipped with whistles & bells, motorized walking aids, positioning aids for comfort, and attachment bags for transportation of personal items, among others. Wheelchairs with advanced accessories are being developed, which enhances comfort of users. These aids have become portable, as they can now be folded and carried. Many companies like Gf Health Products, Inc. have introduced recline wheelchairs and removable full support headrest as well as standing wheelchairs. The development of power chairs has transformed the market and many manufacturers are focusing on this opportunity & investing in R&D to introduce advanced wheelchair devices.
Restraint: High Purchasing and Maintenance Costs
Walking equipment are essential for people with disability, to assist them with daily activities. However, mobility equipment is expensive and account for majority of government as well as household expenses. With technological advancements, the cost of these devices is also increasing. Walking aids, such as wheelchairs & rollators, require servicing and maintenance, as they are motorized and have braking systems. Rising cost of wheelchairs is expected to restrain growth of personal mobility devices market. According to Ask Wonder, manual wheelchairs cost between USD 1,500 and USD 2,000, whereas power wheelchairs costs between USD 7,000 and USD 8,500. However, several government initiatives and insurance schemes are expected to help overcome this limitation.
