Wheelchairs help people travel from one location to another those who are physically incapacitated, either permanently or temporarily, and this is likely to boost market growth. The wheelchair is one of the most widely used assistive devices for enhancing and facilitating personal mobility, which is a prerequisite for exercising human rights and living in dignity, and for assisting people with mobility disabilities to become more productive members of their communities. A wheelchair that satisfies the physical, lifestyle, and environmental needs of persons who have difficulty walking is a crucial instrument for them to enjoy dramatically enhanced health, social, and economic well-being. Some of the main drivers propelling the market are the rising elderly population and the increase in conditions like spinal cord injuries that require assistance with mobility. About 17,730 new spinal cord injuries occur in the United States each year, with auto accidents being the main source of injury, according to the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC). So, the U.S. represents a significant market for wheelchairs.
