The biofilms treatment market was valued at US$ 1,590.31 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 2,825.80 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during 2020–2027.
Biofilms are composed of mixed strains of fungi, bacteria, yeasts, algae, and other microbes. A biofilm develops on the wound surface when certain types of bacteria or fungi adhere to the wound surface and form a matrix over it. Viscous and shiny substances with unpleasant smell are secreted. The rising diabetes cases, increasing incidence of skin injuries due to burns and ulcers wounds, and growing number of surgical procedures across the world fuel the biofilms treatment market growth. Moreover, the rising number of innovations in wound care products is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. However, the high cost associated with wound care management hinders the growth of the biofilms treatment market.

Market Insights
Increasing Incidence of Wounds and Ulcers
Rising risks associated with diabetes such as diabetic foot ulcers and pressure sores accelerate demand for advanced bioactive wound care management products. In addition, the prevalence of noncommunicable diseases is increasing due to factors such as antimicrobial resistance, unhealthy lifestyles, alcohol consumption, and smoking. As per the International Diabetes Federation, in 2019, ~463 million adults were affected by diabetes, and the number of adult patients suffering from diabetes is expected to reach 700 million by 2045. As per the International Diabetes Federation, diabetes patients are 15–40 times more likely to require lower-leg amputation. Approximately 85% of amputations are carried out due to the development of a neuropathic foot ulcer.
Product-Based Insights
Based on product, the biofilms treatment market is segmented into debridement equipment, gauzes and dressings, grafts and matrices, and other products. The gauzes and dressings segment held the largest share of the market in 2019. The same segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period. Many companies are developing advanced dressings to prevent biofilms. For instance, ConvaTec Inc. has developed Hydrofiber Technology, where the soft absorbent dressing material forms a gel when it comes in contact with wound fluid. The technology reduces the dead space where bacteria can grow, and it also provides rapid and sustained antimicrobial activity.
Gauzes are available in woven and nonwoven forms, which have high absorbency and can be applied on both infected and noninfected wounds.
