The Türkiye medical plastic industry size is projected to reach USD 217.5 million in 2023 and USD 328.9 million in 2033. Over the assessment period, demand for medical plastic in Türkiye is anticipated to rise at a CAGR of 4.2%. The medical industry increasingly relies on single-use medical devices, and medical plastics play an essential role in producing such products due to their cost-effectiveness, sterility, and ease of manufacture.

Ongoing technological advancements in the healthcare industry have led to the development of sophisticated medical devices and equipment. These advanced devices often require specialized cables and connectors made from high-performance medical plastics to ensure reliable and precise functionality.

With the increasing adoption of telemedicine, there is rising demand for medical devices made from plastics that are suitable for remote patient monitoring and telehealth applications. The trend toward sustainability and environmental responsibility is influencing the medical plastic industry.

The medical sector is subject to strict regulatory standards and quality requirements. Medical plastics used in cables and connectors must meet stringent criteria for biocompatibility, sterilization, and safety to ensure compliance with regulatory standards by ISO and FDA.

Türkiye’s medical plastics industry has been experiencing substantial growth, driven by various factors:

  1. Increased Healthcare Demand: Rising population and healthcare awareness have boosted demand for medical devices, equipment, and disposable products, all of which require high-quality, durable plastic materials.
  2. Investment in Healthcare Infrastructure: Türkiye has made substantial investments in healthcare infrastructure, including city hospitals and specialized facilities, fueling demand for medical-grade plastics used in equipment, disposables, and packaging.
  3. Technological Advancements in Medical Plastics: Türkiye is advancing in medical plastic technology, especially in materials that are biocompatible and antimicrobial. This innovation supports the manufacturing of safer, more efficient medical devices and packaging solutions.
  4. Medical Tourism Growth: Türkiye has become a major hub for medical tourism due to cost-effective, high-quality healthcare, driving the production of medical plastics used in equipment, prosthetics, and patient-care devices.

Competitive Landscape 

Türkiye’s medical plastic industry is fragmented, with leading players accounting for around 45% to 50% of the overall share.

Key medical plastic companies in the country are investing in continuous research to offer new products and increase production capacity to meet end-user demand. Leading players are inclined toward adopting strategies to strengthen their footprint, such as partnerships, mergers, acquisitions, and facility expansions.
