The global veterinary sterilization container market size is anticipated to reach USD 119.53 million by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The drivers of the market growth include increasing awareness of infection control in veterinary surgeries and the rise in surgical procedures for pets. These containers provide a reliable method for maintaining instrument sterility, reducing the risk of contamination, and improving surgical outcomes. In addition, stricter regulations and guidelines for sterilization practices are driving veterinary clinics to adopt more efficient and durable sterilization solutions. For example, with the rise in complex surgeries for pets, especially in orthopedic and oncology procedures, there is a greater need for reliable sterilization methods. Clinics are also adopting sterilization containers to ensure compliance with stricter regulations on sterilization and hygiene, boosting overall demand.
Furthermore, the prevalence of osteoarthritis and cruciate ligament injuries in animals is increasing due to obesity & other lifestyle conditions, which is boosting demand for veterinary surgeries and the need for veterinary sterilization containers to sterilize surgical instruments. Moreover, the rising amount of osteoarthritis among canines is anticipated to fuel market growth. For instance, in 2022, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a veterinarian confirmed the diagnosis of osteoarthritis in 38% (188 of 500) of dogs. Hence, obesity and the prevalence of osteoarthritis are resulting in orthopedic problems, which, in turn, increases the number of surgical procedures, thus driving the need for various surgical instruments such as sterilization containers.
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are a significant concern in veterinary facilities, affecting many patients. According to studies published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science in January 2023, the prevalence of HAIs in veterinary facilities ranges from 2.8% to 16% of patients, with some studies reporting even higher rates. Thus, there is an increasing need for infection control in veterinary settings, where HAIs are rising due to multidrug-resistant pathogens. Sterilization containers, especially those made of durable materials like aluminum and perforated designs, provide superior sterility, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. The demand for these containers is further supported by their role in ensuring compliance with stricter regulations and the growing focus on reducing zoonotic disease transmission between animals and humans.
