Japan sterilization equipment market size reached USD 733.5 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 1,681.2 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.93% during 2025-2033. Several stringent policies related to sterilizing devices in the healthcare institutions, along with the rising number of surgical processes, are primarily bolstering the market growth.
Sterilization equipment play a vital role in healthcare facilities by eradicating pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores either from fluids or the surfaces of objects. They find extensive application in various sterilization methods, including autoclave machines, clean-in-place (CIP) systems, ultraviolet (UV) chambers, and processes involving steam, dry heat, and liquid chemicals. The primary objective is to mitigate the risk of cross-contamination and ensure the safety of both medical staff and patients. In contemporary healthcare settings, many medical devices and instruments are constructed using materials that are sensitive to high temperatures, particularly plastics. Consequently, manufacturers are introducing low-temperature sterilization systems like ozone, hydrogen peroxide gas plasma, ethylene oxide (EO) gas, and peracetic acid immersion. These methods provide effective disinfection for heat-sensitive devices, addressing the evolving needs of the medical industry while upholding stringent sterilization standards.
Japan Sterilization Equipment Market Trends:
The Japan industrial packaging market is experiencing significant growth, primarily driven by the escalating hospitalization rates resulting from the widespread impact of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. Consequently, there is an increased need for sterilization equipment to ensure the safety of patients by preventing the introduction of harmful substances that could lead to infections through artificial airways and internal circuits. In addition to the healthcare sector, the market is also benefiting from the rising number of surgical procedures being conducted. The growing emphasis on patient safety and infection control is driving healthcare authorities in Japan to implement stringent policies regarding the sterilization of medical devices in healthcare facilities, further boosting the demand for sterilization equipment. Moreover, sterilization equipment is finding applications in the food and beverage (F&B) industry for disinfecting containers and packaging materials. This adoption is in response to the surging demand for packaged food products, driven by busy lifestyles and the increasing prevalence of nuclear families in Japan. These factors will collectively contribute to the growth and prominence of the sterilization equipment market within the industrial packaging sector in Japan over the forecasted period.
