REPORT HIGHLIGHTS

U.S. sales of capital equipment to the sterilization industry should reach $905.2 million in 2005 and $1.1 billion in 2010, rising at an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 4.2%.

The trends of value-added manufacturing and shorter hospital stays combined are holding capital equipment costs down and are leading to the use of more disposable than reusable items.

This trend toward disposables spells success for filtration sterilization, where sales of sterilizing filters for liquids and gases will rise at an AAGR of 5.9% to $603.5 million in 2010.

Heat sterilization technologies are the tried-and-true methods and purchases will rise to $505.3 million in 2010.
