North America Sterilization Equipment Market was valued at US$ 2.09 billion in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 8.7% from 2024-2030. Sterilization is the process of destroying living micro-organisms including transmissible agents such as spore forms, bacteria, fungi, and unicellular eukaryotic organisms from medical equipment, surfaces, and fluids among others. Sterilization is mandatory in the medical industry to improve the efficacy and safety of the instruments. Sterilization can be done by various processes such as chemical, heat, high pressure, irradiation, and filtration. Chronic diseases such as HIV and lethal hepatitis may occur due to the use of unsterilized equipment. Sterilization is the process of removing all types of bacteria from a solid surface or liquid. In most life sciences laboratories and healthcare settings, a sterile atmosphere is a must. Sterilization stops bacteria from growing on solid surfaces and in liquids, preventing them from spreading further. Steam, dry, chemical, and filter sterilization are some of the methods used by sterilization equipment.
