The increased demand for ice in the healthcare sector for storing organs and aiding rehabilitation procedures boosts the ice maker market.

Ice is essential for several industries and the healthcare industry is among the growing industries for ice maker applications. Ice is used in various applications in healthcare, such as hydration, swelling treatment, physical therapy and others. Organ storage is one of the major applications of ice makers and generators for storing various organs for a longer period.

Organ transplantation was one of the most major medical breakthroughs in the second half of the twentieth century. It is still the only effective treatment for end-stage organ failure in many patients. Providing high-quality and effective organs has always been a critical element in the whole multidisciplinary approach to transplantation and this was recognized early on in service development.

Modern transplant services have been made possible by employing the tremendous effects of chilling to delay biological degradation in organs separated from their typical physiological environment. Low temperatures, on the other hand, have a variety of effects (both beneficial and harmful) on mammalian cell biology that have necessitated extensive research to allow us to use cold during organ preservation and this has been the history of the development of techniques that are now in use worldwide.

The first line of defense against hypoxia damage is cooling. Thus, cooling is required to minimize cellular metabolism and oxygen consumption to avoid tissue harm. Thus, cooling is required to preserve the organ for a longer period, which is achieved by ice makers or ice machines.

Furthermore, in U.S., there are now 121,678 patients waiting for life-saving organ transplants. A total of 100,791 people are waiting for kidney transplants. (as of November 11, 2016). The average wait period for a first kidney transplant is 3.6 years, but this might vary based on the patient's health, compatibility and organ availability. Thus the mentioned statistics have created immense demand for ice makers in the organ preservation application and are expected to increase in the forecast period due to increasing health-related issues globally.

Improving demand for ice makers in microbiology, biochemistry, biotechnology and genetic engineering laboratories for various applications boosts the product's market share.

Ice makers play a vital role in various biochemistry, biotechnology and other medical research laboratories to store biological samples and assist in transporting these samples to other facilities.

An ice bath is required in several experiments and reactions in one or more steps. Ice producers in laboratories are a practical technique to ensure that ice is available when needed. In microbiology labs and for PCR, a laboratory ice maker can be handy. There are laboratory ice producers that produce ice but must be stored in a separate ice bin and ice makers that produce and store ice.

Furthermore, the outbreak of COVID-19 has created immense demand for ice makers to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. The key players introduce various ice makers to store vaccines that require complicated cold supply chains and refrigerated storage. Thus improving cases of COVID-19 has escalated the demand for ice makers in various microbiological facilities coupled with vaccination centers for storing the vaccine for a longer period.

The rising popularity of cryotherapy across the globe is expected to create opportunities for ice makers in the future market.

The simplest and oldest method of treating injuries is cryotherapy, often known as ice treatment. Because of its effectiveness, convenience, low cost and ease of shipping, have become widely used worldwide. Ice is thought to relieve pain by inducing a local anesthetic. Oedema, nerve conduction velocities, cellular metabolism and local blood flow, are all reduced. The effect of cryotherapy is determined by the procedure, duration, ice temperature and subcutaneous fat depth.

Cold therapy is a tried-and-true form of pain management, especially for patients who have been wounded, strained a muscle, or are recovering from surgery. This treatment is part of the RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) healing strategy, popular worldwide. An ice pack with an elastic bandage is one of the most common cold treatment methods.

Technology has made it easier to administer cold therapy when needed. Water is circulated through an ice reservoir in cold therapy equipment. The reservoir is connected to a wrap that offers compression, which may aid in the reduction of swelling. The patient gets the combined benefits of a therapeutic cold and targeted pressure to heal with a cold therapy unit.

Thus, the increased prevalence of sports injuries, cardiac disorders, malignancies and technological improvements in cryotherapy technology are driving the cryotherapy industry and creating immense opportunities for the ice maker market to grow in the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has hampered the expansion of the ice maker market. The viral outbreak hampered the meatpacking industry's operations, causing a drop in ice demand. Due to movement restrictions and widespread quarantines, the market revenue was further impacted by a steep fall in the hospitality and restaurant industries.

However, the hospital industry has shown positive demand growth for ice makers during the COVID-19 period, predominantly for storing vaccines and Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests samples, enzymes and reagents. Thus improving vaccination drive in regions like Asia-Pacific has generated the demand for ice makers and is expected to increase in the forecast period.

Furthermore, the market will likely recover steadily in the post-pandemic age, with restaurants and lounges gradually reopening.

Segment Analysis

The global ice maker market can be segmented on type, product, material, size, application and region.

Cube ice is growing at the fastest rate in the global ice maker market due to the increasing demand for ice cubes from the healthcare sector.

The global ice maker market based on product is segmented into cube ice, nugget ice, gourmet ice, crescent ice and flake ice. Out of the mentioned cube, ice dominates the market due to the rising usage of differently shaped cubes in the residential and commercial sectors. Furthermore, using gourmet ice cubes in hotels, restaurants, businesses, households and universities for non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages impacts market statistics. In contrast to tube ice machines, flake ice machines and other ice machines, cube ice machines are characterized as compact ice machines.

The most common capacities are 30 kilogramme (66 lb) and 1,755 kg (3,869 lb). Since their introduction in the 1970s, cube ice machines have grown into a wide family of ice makers. Vertical modular systems are typically seen as cube ice machines. The evaporator is on top, while the ice bin is on the bottom. The refrigerant runs through the pipes of a self-contained evaporator, where it conducts the heat exchange with water and converts water into ice cubes by freezing. The water is automatically discharged and falls into the ice bin once completely frozen into ice.

Furthermore, cube ice has shown a dominating position in the healthcare sector in preventing healing and preventing acne, helping relieve swelling by reducing blood flow to the injured area. In addition, Since many individuals have trouble swallowing liquids, ice is a convenient way to stay hydrated. To consume little amounts of water at a time, patients can chew or have ice cubes melt in their mouths. Patients can stay hydrated without needing to drink from a cup or glass if they do this throughout the day.
