Wound Dressing Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Number of Traumatic Injuries to Favor Market

Wound dressing has broad applications in traumatic injuries. An increasing number of road accidents is one of the key concerns for countries with high populations and low socioeconomic backgrounds, as road traffic injuries cause considerable economic losses. These losses mainly arise from the cost of treatment and lost productivity for those killed or disabled by their injuries. According to World Health Organization (WHO), every year approximately 1.3 million people die in road traffic crashes and between 20 and 50 million more people suffer non-fatal injuries, with many incurring a disability due to their injury. Moreover, according to the Economic Times, India witnessed 5,54,796 road accidents in 2020. Such accidents often cause serious blood loss and other injuries and require immediate medical attention and sometimes surgical intervention to provide immediate relief to the patient. Therefore, an increase in accidents is boosting the demand for wound dressing products and is leading to a significant rise in the market.

New Product Launches and Approvals act as an Opportunity for Market Growth

The development of the healthcare industry has led to a rise in the demand for wound dressing among healthcare providers across the world. This increased demand contributes to new product developments, product launches, and approvals on a global level. In addition, major market players are involved in research and development activities to ensure the innovation and development of efficient products. For instance, in January 2024, Coloplast launched Biatain Silicone Fit for pressure injury prevention and wound management in the US. The company aims to expand its position within advanced wound care by introducing a new silicone foam that will benefit both healthcare professionals and patients. Thus, an increase in product developments, launches, and strategic collaborations among market players is likely to create ample opportunities for the wound dressing market in the coming years.

Wound Dressing Market Share Analysis by Geography

The geographic scope of the wound dressing market report is mainly divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.

North America has dominated the market. The projected growth of the wound dressing market in North America is attributed to the factors such as rapid technological advancements, growing medical expenditure, an increasing number of surgical procedures, and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases leading to chronic wounds. Diabetes is one of the primary causes of chronic wounds. The prevalence and incidence of diabetes are directly proportional to chronic wound prevalence and incidence. Chronic wounds associated with diabetes include foot, venous, and pressure ulcers. For instance, according to "The International Journal of Tissue Repair and Regeneration," active or healed venous ulcers occur in 1% of the US population. Additionally, as per the National Diabetes Statistics Report 2020, a publication of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 34.2 million people of all ages in the US have diabetes, and ~1 million diabetics develop a foot ulcer each year, while 6-7 million diabetes patients develop ulcers in their lifetime. Thus, the rising incidence of diabetes and chronic wounds leads to an increase in the usage and demand of wound dressing and contributes to the wound dressing market growth during the forecast period.
