Europe Sharps Containers Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Europe Sharps Containers Market is estimated to reach USD 0.35 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 5.42%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Europe Sharps Containers Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. Sharps containers, sometimes referred to as sharps bins, are used to dispose of medical waste, including syringes, catheters, and hypodermic needles, in a safe manner. Needles, syringes, broken glass, blood samples, and infectious pathogens are among the medical waste products generated by healthcare organisations, research facilities, and hospital chains. Sharps containers are used to dispose of such materials. Sharps containers come in two primary varieties: single-use, which is disposed of together with the waste inside, and reusable, which is automatically emptied, sterilised, and then put back into service.
- August 2022: Aurora Capital Partners declared that it has successfully finished buying Sharps Compliance Corp., a company that offers waste management services for hazardous, medical, and pharmaceutical waste.
- July 2021: Stericycle, Inc. and UPS Healthcare partnered to handle medical waste's reverse logistics. The partnership allowed for the transportation, processing, and disposal of many types of medical waste, such as biohazardous, sharps, and pharmaceutical wastes.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
A prominent trend in the European sharps containers market is the emergence of environmentally friendly and innovative reusable products, featuring enhanced safety mechanisms like hand-blocking. The upswing in scheduled surgeries and infection treatments leading to higher medical waste, particularly sharps, has spurred the adoption of these containers. Hospitals favour cost-effective reusable options. The demand for injections, driven by disease prevalence and COVID-19 vaccination efforts, has escalated sharps waste generation. European regulatory bodies are proactively introducing stringent guidelines for eco-friendly and cost-effective reusable products. These trends create opportunities for industry leaders to introduce innovative products in the future.
While these products offer numerous advantages, various limiting factors are anticipated to hinder market growth during the forecast period. Disposable containers, commonly used for biohazard waste disposal, face concerns due to the increased cost of clinical waste disposal. The expense of transporting waste to incinerators has also risen significantly. Reusable products, while offering the advantage of multiple uses, require specialized cleaning through an extended sterilization process, incurring additional costs. The extensive use of single-use plastic products contributes to approximately 12.5 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually. It is anticipated that the use of reusable goods in the healthcare industry would grow, but their high operating and administrative expenses could prevent broad use in Europe.

COVID-19 Impact on Europe Sharps Containers Market
The growth of the Europe sharps containers market was significantly hindered by the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily attributed to lockdowns causing a decline in hospital visits. Factors such as production and supply chain disruptions, resource reallocation to essential commodities, and reduced healthcare facility visits contributed to this negative impact. However, the surge in hospitalizations due to COVID-19 partially offset the decline in sharps usage. As COVID-19 restrictions eased, the market experienced robust growth with the resumption of regular healthcare activities. Increased injection use for COVID-19 vaccinations also fuelled market growth. While 2022 saw slightly diminished growth, steady growth is anticipated in the forecast period.
