Global Biomedical textiles market - 2024-2031

Global Biomedical textiles market - 2024-2031


The global biomedical textiles market reached US$ 17.8 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 28.8 billion by 2031 growing with a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period 2024-2031.

Biomedical textiles are fiber-based medical devices that can be implanted in patients to restore tissue properties, provide mechanical support, as well as facilitate the healing process for a variety of indications. Textile-based implantable medical devices include but are not limited to sutures, meshes, vascular grafts, and heart valves.

Biomedical textiles may be created from synthetic or natural sources and may be non-resorbable or resorbable based on the medical device’s intended use. Biomedical textiles may be constructed by four main processing methods knitting, weaving, braiding, and non-woven methods.

The biomedical textiles market involves the production and use of textile products designed specifically for medical and biological applications. These textiles are used in various medical fields, including wound care, implants, surgical sutures, and healthcare fabrics. They are engineered to interact with biological systems and are designed for performance characteristics such as biocompatibility, antimicrobial properties, durability, and the ability to promote healing and tissue regeneration.

Market Dynamics: Drivers

Growing aging population & prevalence of chronic diseases and rising number of surgical procedures

The demand for the global biomedical textiles market is driven by multiple factors. The growing aging population & the prevalence of chronic diseases and the rising number of surgical procedures are also contributing to the expansion of the market.

The growing aging population globally is driving the demand for healthcare services and products. As the elderly population increases, there is a greater need for wound care, orthopedic support, and other biomedical textiles that cater to age-related conditions. In addition, the prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, further fuels the demand for biomedical textiles for wound management and treatment.

Moreover, key players' strategies such as partnerships & collaborations would drive this market growth. For instance, in April 2022, Integer Holdings Corporation announced the acquisition of Connemara Biomedical Holdings Teoranta, including its operating subsidiaries Aran Biomedical and Proxy Biomedical. By using this acquisition consistent with our strategy, the combination with Aran further increases Integer’s ability to offer complete solutions for complex delivery and therapeutic devices in high-growth cardiovascular markets such as structural heart, neurovascular, peripheral vascular, and endovascular as well as general surgery.

The increasing number of surgeries and the demand for high-quality wound dressing material are expected to drive the biomedical textiles market. With the use of biomedical textiles, damaged tissues or organs can be treated, which is a result of advanced medical inventions related to biomedical textiles.

Restraints

Factors such as high R&D investments, shortages of raw materials, lack of awareness among individuals, and regulatory challenges are expected to hamper the market.

Segment Analysis

The global biomedical textiles market is segmented based on fiber, fabric, application, and region.

The non-biodegradable fiber segment accounted for approximately 56.6% of the global biomedical textiles market share

The non-biodegradable fiber segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. These are the fibers that are not degraded by biological conditions for a long time and are mostly used for external purposes. These include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyester, polypropylene, carbon, and others. Non-biodegradable fibers are used for applications where long-lasting performance is required, such as in surgical sutures, wound dressings, and implantable devices.

These sutures provide the necessary support to hold tissues together during the healing process, making them indispensable in surgical procedures. Their resistance to degradation ensures that they maintain structural integrity in medical applications, which is critical for patient safety and efficacy of treatment.

In addition, key players in the industry's innovative developments propel this segment's growth. For instance, in August 2022, The RGE-NTU SusTex project aims to accelerate innovation in textile recycling and translate research outcomes into practical solutions that can be deployed in urban settings like Singapore. Researchers in the S$6m joint research center will look into areas such as next-generation eco-friendly and sustainable textiles and refabricating textile waste into fiber. The aim is to study the chemistry of various textile materials and determine the optimal processes and techniques required to start a circular textile economy.

Geographical Analysis

North America accounted for approximately 45.7% of the global biomedical textiles market share

North America region is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period increasing the prevalence of chronic diseases, advancements in healthcare technology, and well-established healthcare infrastructure help to drive this market growth.

According to the National Institutes of Health, in June 2023, a significant portion of the U.S. population suffered from conditions requiring advanced medical interventions, which in turn drives the demand for biomedical textiles. For instance, the growing number of surgeries related to obesity and cardiovascular issues necessitates the use of specialized textiles for surgical applications.

Moreover, a major number of key players' presence and key developments in biomedical textiles propel this market growth in this region. For instance, in March 2024, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation announced that MicroMatrix Flex is now available commercially in the U.S. MicroMatrix Flex is a dual-syringe system enabling the convenient mixing and precise delivery of MicroMatrix paste to provide convenient access to hard-to-reach spaces and to help prepare an even wound surface in challenging wound areas.

Also, in October 2022, Cortland Biomedical unveiled new capabilities for creating textile structures incorporating radiopaque fibers. Incorporating radiopaque fibers into diagnostic and interventional medical devices enables the devices to become visible under fluoroscopy.
