Canes And Crutches Market Growth & Trends

The global canes and crutches market size is expected to reach USD 1.49 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.9% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Key factors driving the market growth include the rising cases of vehicle collisions, osteoarthritis, & disabilities, growing geriatric population, and government initiatives. According to a University of Washington article published in August 2023, osteoarthritis affected 595 million people globally in 2020, equivalent to 7.6% of the global population. Projections suggest substantial growth by 2050, with anticipated rises of 74.9% for knee osteoarthritis and 95.1% for other forms of osteoarthritis across different joints.

Moreover, the increasing number of disability cases fuels the market's growth. According to the WHO article published in March 2023, about 1.3 billion individuals globally live with significant disabilities, accounting for 16% of the world's population, which translates to roughly 1 in every 6 people. This underscores the widespread impact of disabilities on a global scale, highlighting the need for continued efforts to improve accessibility and support for people with disabilities worldwide. Advancements in mobility aids are also driving market growth.

New cane technologies for individuals with visual impairments integrate sensors and sonars to detect obstacles, offering rechargeability, durability, and universal mounting capabilities. Projects like MAVI aim to enhance these canes to detect and describe obstacles, including pedestrians and text through OCR. Moreover, crutch design has evolved from heavy wooden models to lightweight versions made of materials like aluminum, titanium, and carbon fiber. Modern crutches feature ergonomic designs, contoured arm pads, improved tips, and enhanced range of motion, reducing secondary injuries and improving user comfort and mobility.
