1. Market dynamics and driving factors

The market size continues to expand:

The global medical brace market (including orthotics, prostheses, compression garments, support belts, exoskeletons, etc.) has reached tens of billions of dollars and maintained steady growth (CAGR of about 5-7%).

Main driving factors: aging population; increased sports injuries; rising prevalence of chronic diseases; technological progress and product innovation; preference for non-invasive treatment and early intervention; increased disposable income and improved health awareness

2. Trends in technology and product innovation

The popularity of 3D scanning and printing technology:

Personalized customization has become mainstream: 3D scanning is used to accurately obtain data on patient body parts, and 3D printing technology is used to manufacture highly fitting and biomechanically compliant personalized braces (such as scoliosis orthotics and foot orthopedic insoles), which significantly improve comfort and efficacy.

Shorten delivery cycle: Reduce the tedious steps of traditional mold taking and manual production, and speed up product delivery.

Remote adaptation becomes possible: Combined with telemedicine, customized services are provided to patients in remote areas.

The medical brace industry is a vibrant and promising field. Changes in population structure, evolution of disease spectrum and technological revolution are the core driving forces. The future development of the industry will pay more attention to personalization, intelligence, lightweight and comfort.
