Endoscope Sterilizer Market  : Industry Size, Share Trends, Growth, Demand, Opportunities.

According to a new report from Intel Market Research, the global Endoscope Sterilizer market was valued at USD 376 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 669 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period (2025-2032). This growth is driven by increasing demand for infection prevention in healthcare facilities and stringent sterilization regulations worldwide.

What is an Endoscope Sterilizer?

Endoscope sterilizers are specialized medical devices designed to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens from endoscopes before and after medical procedures. These devices use advanced sterilization methods including high-temperature steam, chemical disinfectants, and low-temperature plasma sterilization to ensure complete decontamination. Their critical role in preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) makes them indispensable in hospitals, clinics, and ambulatory surgical centers.

The technology behind these sterilizers has evolved significantly, with modern systems offering automated cycles, real-time monitoring, and compatibility with various endoscope types. Major regulatory bodies including the FDA and EMA have established rigorous standards for these devices, ensuring patient safety across global healthcare systems.

Key Market Drivers

1. Rising Prevalence of Hospital-Acquired Infections

The increasing incidence of HAIs, particularly those linked to contaminated endoscopes, has become a major concern for healthcare providers. Recent studies show that reprocessed endoscopes account for nearly 20% of all HAIs in surgical settings, creating urgent demand for reliable sterilization solutions. Governments worldwide are implementing stricter sterilization protocols, directly boosting market adoption.

2. Technological Advancements in Sterilization Systems

Manufacturers are introducing innovative sterilization technologies to address the limitations of traditional methods:

• Automated endoscope reprocessors (AERs) with integrated tracking systems
• Hydrogen peroxide vapor systems for heat-sensitive scopes
• Single-use endoscope processing units for outpatient facilities
