The global wound care market is anticipated to reach USD 29.57 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.17% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing number of surgical cases, a rapidly aging population, as well as a rising number of diabetic patients, are among the major factors driving this market’s growth. For instance, according to Ageing Asia, as of 2019, more than 139 million people, i.e., about 10% of India’s total population, were over 60. This is expected to increase up to 19.5% in 2050. The geriatric population is more susceptible to wounds, and thus, increasing the number of elder populations, the wound care market is anticipated to propel during the forecast period.
The wound care market has seen significant technological advancements in recent years, leading to the development of new and innovative products for treating various types of wounds. Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins that stimulate cell growth and division. These proteins can be used in wound care to promote healing and tissue regeneration. For example, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is effective in promoting the healing of chronic wounds. 3D printing technology has revolutionized the production of custom-made wound care products, such as prosthetic limbs, orthotics, and wound dressings.
In addition, many leading manufacturers are undergoing strategic initiatives such as product launches, partnerships, and geographic expansion, which may help them capitalize on the increasing demand for wound care products during the forecast period. For instance, Human Biosciences planned on launching two new wound care products in the Indian market. The launch of these products in the Indian market is expected to help the company capture the post-pandemic wound care market in India. Thus, similar initiatives by other market players are anticipated to boost the wound care market post-pandemic.
