Wound Dressing Market Value Projected to Expand by 2018 to 2024 | Leading Players such as 3M Company, Coloplast A/S, Derma Sciences, Inc., Smith & Nephew plc, Medtronic, Mölnlycke Healthcare, Medline Industries, Inc., Organogenesis Inc.

Diabetes UK estimates that diabetic patients are 30 times more likely to have an amputation compared to general population. With such high probability, a large number of amputation surgeries are witnessed each year, subsequently requiring effective wound dressing to prevent infection post-surgery. Wound dressings are broadly classified into three categories, namely active, passive, and interactive dressings. While passive wound dressings have protective function, active wound dressings promote healing by creating a moist wound environment. Thus, demand for advanced wound dressings such as hydrogels and foams would subsequently increase. Interactive dressings on the other hand, create a moist wound environment and also interact with the wound bed components to enhance wound healing. Dressings such as hydrogels and alginates require secondary dressing, as they are permeable and non-occlusive. Composites multi-layer dressings are relatively expensive and can be used for primary and secondary wound dressing. The global wound dressings market is expected to be driven by increasing demand for advanced wound dressings.

The global wound dressings market was valued at US$ 8,269.5 million in 2015 and is expected to witness a moderate CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period (2016 – 2024).

Market Dynamics

Most conventional wound dressings take longer to heal wounds as compared to advanced wound dressing products such as anti-infective wound dressings that are widely used post-operation to prevent risk of any hospital acquired infections (HAIs). Due to their higher functional efficiency and effectiveness, advanced wound dressings are fast replacing conventional wound dressings. Increasing incidence of burns, trauma wounds and injuries, and diabetic ulcers are expected to drive growth of the global wound dressings market in the foreseeable future. Rural areas in emerging economies of Asia, Latin America and Africa regions provide a highly lucrative and largely untapped market for market players to capitalize upon. Practice of using cotton gauze and sterile cotton is still high in emerging economies such as India, Brazil, China, and Indonesia, owing to it being easily available and being relatively inexpensive.

Increasing patient pool is expected to drive growth of the global wound dressings market

According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), around 1% to 4% of the diabetic population in the U.S are estimated to be affected by diabetic foot ulcers annually. Moreover, according to Diabetes UK, prevalence of diabetic foot ulcers in diabetic patients is estimated to be 2.5%, which accounts for around 86,000 people in the U.K. in 2015. Moreover, according to the organization, around 7,400 leg, foot or toe amputation procedures are conducted every year in England. As per the estimation by The American Journal of Internal Medicine, around half of the diabetic population in Canada have at least one hospitalization in their lifespan for the treatment of diabetic foot infection.
