Earlier Report Observations

The market size for syringes in Germany, measured in value terms, contracted significantly over the 2018-2024 period. After peaking at 358.7 million US dollars in 2018, domestic consumption fell to 254.1 million in 2019. It partially recovered to 307.8 million by 2021 but then declined again to 288.4 million in 2022 and further to 225.5 million in 2024.

Syringe production in Germany rose from 178.3 million US dollars in 2018 to 238.6 million in 2024, with a temporary decline in 2022. Imports and exports both expanded considerably over the period, with exports reaching 974.8 million US dollars in 2024.

In 2024, major manufacturers focused on advanced prefilled syringe systems. Gerresheimer AG inaugurated a new production line for dual-chamber prefilled syringes, BD launched a new platform for biologics, and SCHOTT introduced a polymer-based dual-chamber syringe with improved break resistance. These technological advancements and capacity expansions supported the rise in production.
