Global Wound Care Market (by Product Type, Application, Wound Type, Region and Company), Size, Share, Acquisitions, Recent Developments - Forecast to 2030

The global wound care market is predicted to surpass US$ 30.1 Billion by 2030. The market for wound care products is increasing owing to the growing number of surgical cases, rising geriatric population, and surge in the prevalence of chronic diseases across the globe. The increasing incidence of diabetes due to the widespread adoption of a sedentary lifestyle is one of the leading factors contributing significantly to the market growth. According to California Podiatric Medical Association (CPMA), 15% of people diagnosed with diabetes tend to develop a foot ulcer. Wound care products help treat diabetic foot ulcers, which are prevalent in diabetic patients.

Over the years, wound care product categories have continued to expand with the continuous arrival of new and advanced products. The developments in wound dressings have led to a shift from simple dressings to advanced products and devices that incorporate pharmaceutically active ingredients. Furthermore, launch of novel therapies such as electromagnetic therapy, electrical stimulation, nanotechnology, and the use of silver and other combination bandages are enhancing the entire market. However, the high cost of advanced wound care products restricts the market growth.
