The dialysis equipment market size is expected to reach US$ 4,136.4 million by 2031 from US$ 2,837.9 million in 2024. The market is estimated to record a CAGR of 5.5% from 2025 to 2031.
The dialysis equipment market in Western Europe is experiencing significant growth driven by growing burden of kidney disease. The known prevalence of CKD rates in Western Europe is 10.6%, which is slightly above the global median. The median of treated kidney failure in Western Europe was 1,038 pmp, also higher than the global median, with Portugal and France reporting the highest prevalence rates of treated kidney failure. Tragically, cardiovascular diseases are significant contributors of death related to the burden of CKD prevalence in Western Europe. However, there is a significant focus on research and development that has allowed for continuous improvement of dialysis techniques and technologies to provide safe and effective care for individuals with kidney disease.
Home dialysis is promoted and supported in an equitable manner allowing individuals the opportunity for patient-directed care at home as they are able. The reimbursement policies for dialysis are favourable and allow all patients to access necessary care. The quality standards for dialysis practice are high; national and European guidelines guide and influence clinical practice. Overall patient education initiatives and support groups have a major impact on the way that individuals are able to manage and utilize their experience in managing kidney disease and dialysis treatment. Western Europe is advancing vertical and holistic dialysis services with a focus on research and development, home dialysis, favourable reimbursement, and high-quality standards.
