Prosthetic liners are part of these devices that act as a covering present over the prosthetic socket and residual limb. The liners are important in prosthetic devices as it prevents skin abrasions and improves socket suspension for amputees. It also helps in lowering of bone pressure on the prosthetic device. Prosthetic liners provides different kind of suspensions. Suspensions are used to hold the prosthetic device on the residual limb. The liners are usually made from the material of silicone, thermoplastic elastomer, and polyurethane.

Higher prevalence of diabetes is expected to boost global prosthetic liners market growth over the forecast period

Global prosthetic liners market growth is expected to propel, owing to increasing prevalence of diabetic population. Diabetes leads to peripheral artery diseases that causes narrowing of blood vessel. As a result there is reduction in blood flow of the legs and feet of the body which makes the wound and other infections irreparable. There are chances of spreading the infection to the bones and in such cases amputation may be necessary. According to World Health Organization (WHO) data, diabetes is the major cause of lower limb amputation. According to the same source, in 2018, around 1.6 million deaths were caused due to diabetes globally and the number of sufferers from diabetes have increased from 108 million, in 1980, to 422 million, in 2014 worldwide. According to The British Diabetic Association data, around 26,378 limb amputations with diabetes have been recorded from 2014 to 2017 in England. Hence, increase in number of diabetic population with amputation may require prosthetic devices, which is expected to support the global prosthetic liners market growth.

The global prosthetic liners market was valued at US 276.8 million in 2017, and is expected to witness a robust CAGR of 3.9% over the forecast period (2018–2026).
