PUNE, INDIA-- January 12, 2022 -- According to the latest study by Future Market Insights (FMI), global Needle-Free Injectors’ sales are expected to reach US$ 12.3 Bn in 2021, surging at 11.4% CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2031).

Needle-free injection is an innovative drug delivery technology that drives drugs to the skin using force which virtually nullifies the use of hypodermic needle. With a growing preference for non-invasive drug delivery systems and vaccines, the adoption of needle-free injectors is expected to improve over the coming years.

The application of needle-free injectors is increasing with the rising incidence of diabetes and other chronic diseases across the globe. With an increasing number of surgeries, demand for minimally invasive procedures is accelerating the sales of needle-free injectors.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 51% of adults in the U.S. had at least 1 chronic condition, and 27.2% had multiple chronic conditions in 2018.

Other factors driving the global demand are cost-effectiveness and safety related to needle-free injectors.
