    Report Coverage

    This report on the manufacture and supply of medical and surgical equipment and orthopaedic appliances in South Africa includes information on the state of the sector, the main devices used and imported, utilisation of healthcare services using medical technology, licences, notable players and technology and innovation. There are profiles of 65 companies including international companies present in South Africa such as Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson Medical, Siemens, notable pharmaceutical wholesalers and retailers, and other notable players such Southern Medical, CapeRay and Ascendis.

    The Manufacture and Supply of Medical and Surgical Equipment in South Africa

    South Africa’s medical devices industry consists of mostly small to medium enterprises and larger multinational companies with local subsidiaries or partners. The latter dominate the industry as imports account for as much as 90% of the market. Disposable devices make up the largest share followed by diagnostic imaging. The public sector accounts for almost half of healthcare expenditure but serves most of the population, and the private sector is better resourced with medical devices.

    Demand

    The need for medical devices is underpinned by the prevalence of communicable and non-communicable diseases and trauma, as well as an ageing population. These factors have not necessarily led to higher demand due to low economic growth resulting in a real decline in health budgets and high levels of unemployment leading to stagnant medical scheme membership and/or switching to cheaper plans. Of the public funding available, considerable amounts have been lost through corruption. Private medical insurance is largely unaffordable, increasing price sensitivity for devices.

    Key Trends

    Local suppliers compete with entrenched global companies. Various initiatives have been launched to improve collaboration and competition including the Medical Device and Diagnostic Innovation Cluster. Medical telematic technology is being used to provide services to manage patients from home. There is a move towards cheaper medical aid packages due to affordability issues.

    Report Coverage

    This report focuses on the supply and manufacture of medical and surgical equipment and orthopaedic appliances, collectively referred to as medical devices. It includes comprehensive information on the state and size of the sector, the effect of coronavirus, statistics on usage of medical technology, the device market by category, trade and many more. There are profiles of 66 companies including APS Therapy, which imports micro-current pain therapy devices, CE Mobility, which provides locally-manufactured electric wheel chairs and Megrotex, which provides locally-manufactured bandages and dressings.

    The Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment and Orthopaedic Appliances

    The medical devices sector has over 500 suppliers, many of which are small businesses that are distributors and agents for large multinational subsidiaries. The industry is fragmented with commodities ranging from nuclear cameras and catheters to latex gloves. The coronavirus pandemic has created opportunities and challenges for the sector. While it has led to the collapse of elective medical procedures, which has caused sales to dive, it has also created opportunities for companies making ventilators and testing kits.

    Growth Opportunities

    South Africa’s aging population is expected to drive demand for medical devices, particularly those involved in the treatment of chronic ailments. The underdeveloped medical devices market offers potential for growth, but faces considerable restraints including funding issues, poor infrastructure, and staff shortages, particularly in the public sector. The sector remains dominated by imports, and experts say more needs to be done to support local manufacturing of medical devices.

    Coronavirus

    The pandemic has increased global demand for diagnostic test kits as healthcare authorities attempt to trace and track the spread of the virus. In South Africa a shortage of diagnostic test kits led to local innovators starting to produce them and some medical device companies which manufacture lateral flow rapid diagnostic test kits have done well during lockdown because their products have direct application. But there have been delays in approvals of licence applications and problems with procurement processes.

    Report Coverage

    This report focuses on the supply and manufacture of medical devices which include medical and surgical equipment and orthopaedic appliances. There are comprehensive profiles of 60 companies. These include local manufacturers such as Hutz, which makes bedhead service systems, theatre control panels and medical and surgical lighting, CapeRay, which makes advanced breast imaging technology, and Lodox, which makes x-ray machines that are used internationally. The report includes information on the state of the industry and the factors that influence it, numerous government initiatives to increase investment in the industry as well as research and development, and the resulting new devices and trends.

    The Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment and Orthopaedic Appliances

    The value of the South African market for medical devices was estimated at over R20bn in 2018, and it is expected to grow by 7.7% in 2019. While local manufacture continues to grow, it remains a small part of the industry, as fewer than 5% of local industry players manufacture devices. As most devices are imported, the industry is extremely sensitive to currency volatility.

    Diverse Sector

    There are more than 600 medical equipment suppliers, many of which are small businesses that are distributors and agents for large multinational subsidiaries. The industry is fragmented with more than 300,000 different medical technologies used in the diagnosis, prevention, treatment and amelioration of disease and disability, ranging from sticking plasters and wheelchairs to pacemakers and replacement joints. More than 80% of the industry consists of privately-owned small and medium-sized enterprises competing with multi-billion dollar healthcare companies like Johnson & Johnson, GE, Siemens and Medtronic.

    Demand Grows

    The demand for medical devices is driven by increased health problems like obesity, and the rising cost of healthcare which stimulates development of innovative products such as wearable medical devices, and demand for early detection and non-invasive therapies.

    Report Coverage

    The report on the Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment and Orthopaedic Appliances describes current conditions, improvements to the weak regulatory environment and factors that influence the success of the sector. The report profiles 53 companies, including multinationals Johnson and Johnson Medical (Pty) Ltd, Medtronic (Africa) (Pty) Ltd and Siemens (Pty) Ltd. Also profiled are South African manufacturers such as Wondermed (Pty) Ltd and Lodox Systems (Pty) Ltd, which designed and manufactured the Lodox Xmplar-dr, a scanner that takes high-speed, full-body x-ray images and was featured in an episode of Grey’s Anatomy.

    The Supply and Manufacture of Medical and Surgical Equipment and Orthopaedic Appliances

    Estimates for the value of the South African medical device market range from R11bn in 2013 to between R13.2bn and R21.7bn in 2015, and shrinking to around R12bn in 2017 as a result of the weak Rand. The industry is extremely sensitive to currency volatility since almost 95% of devices are imported. In this diverse sector there are more than 600 suppliers, many of whom are small businesses that are distributors and agents for large multinational subsidiaries.

    Opportunities and Challenges

    Demand for medical devices is growing, driven by increased health problems like obesity, and changing demographics such as the increasing age of the world’s population. However, the local manufacturing industry faces many problems. Companies have to compete against imported products offered at lower prices because of the economies of scale enjoyed by large multinational manufacturers and the fact that import tariffs are only levied on a few medical devices. Cheaper products, often of a lower quality, are also imported from China and because of the lack of regulation many of these products are of questionable quality.
