Hospital Linen Supply and Management Services Market Analysis

The Global Hospital Linen Supply And Management Services Market size is estimated at USD 12.38 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 18.58 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 8.45% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

The key factors propelling market growth include the rising incidence of hospital-acquired infections (HAI), the increasing number of surgical procedures, and strategic business initiatives, including sponsorship.

The growing cases of HAIs and concerns regarding sanitation and precaution will favor the market expansion. Hospital-acquired infections are usually caused by pathogens, which spread quickly in the body. The increasing incidence of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) significantly propels the market's growth. HAIs necessitate stringent hygiene and sanitation practices to prevent the spread of diseases, thereby elevating the demand for clean and sanitized hospital linens. This includes bed sheets, gowns, and other essential linens that require frequent laundering and replacement to maintain a sterile environment. For instance, according to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, in May 2024, hospitals in the EU/EEA reported that 4.3 million patients acquire at least one healthcare-associated infection during their stay every year. Therefore, as HAIs rise, healthcare providers are compelled to refine their linen management practices, leading to a significant surge in the market for hospital linen supply and management services.

Furthermore, a growing number of surgical procedures worldwide propels the demand for hospital linen supply and management services. For instance, according to the JAMA network, in March 2023, in the United States, more than 370,000 patients undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) each year, with approximately 30% of these patients being women. Thus, the growing number of surgeries, such as angioplasty, will likely augment the market growth. In addition, as per an article published in medRxiv in June 2022, the total need for elective procedures in England in March 2022 was about 4.34 million. As per estimates, the need for general surgery was approximately 1.52 million, orthopedics with 976 thousand, ophthalmology with 391 thousand, sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy 568 thousand, gastroscopy with 447 thousand, cataract surgery with 314 thousand, lower limb joint replacement with 224 thousand, and interventional cardiology with 349 thousand. This high number of surgical procedures is expected to propel the demand for linen supply and management services.

Market player focuses on activities, such as offering sponsorship in the market to expand its global presence. For instance, in April 2023, ImageFIRST secured sponsorship for the medical and public tents at the Boston Marathon from 2023 to 2025. As a sponsor, ImageFIRST was committed to providing essential support and ensuring high-quality linen and healthcare products to meet the needs of participants, medical personnel, and the public during these prestigious events. Therefore, the activities conducted by players, such as offering sponsorship to suppliers, drive the market's growth over the forecast period.

Thus, all the factors above, including the growing number of hospital-acquired infections (HAI), rise in surgical procedures, and strategic business initiatives, including sponsorship, boost the market in the region. However, increasing demand for home care services restrained the market over the forecast period.
