Hospital Linen Supply And Management Services Market Growth & Trends
The global hospital linen supply and management services market size is expected to reach USD 13.9 billion by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 6.3%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increase in the prevalence of epidemics and pandemics, such as Ebola, COVID-19, and SARS, and rising awareness towards surgical site infections are the key factors driving the market.
Outsourcing of hospital linen supply and management services is preferred over in-house due to various advantages. Outsourcing is a convenient option for laundry of a large number of linen clothes. The majority of key players provide regular laundry service to healthcare facilities, which reduces the chances of contamination. This, in turn, is anticipated to drive the market over the forecast period.
Outsourcing helps healthcare facilities to focus on their core competencies, workers, and various materials required for laundry. In addition, it saves time and money for upgrading equipment. Moreover, in-house laundry requires a huge investment in installing and maintaining the laundry facility. Therefore, an increase in the number of outsourced laundry services to the key players is boosting their revenue, which drives the market. Hospitals opt for outsourcing of linen supplies such as uniforms, gowns, bedsheets, pillow covers, towels, and medical apparel to maintain hygiene. This, in turn, is expected to drive the market over the forecast period.
