[Research Report] The Medical Tapes and Bandages Market Size is expected to grow from US$ 8.63 billion in 2022 to US$ 12.29 billion by 2030; it is estimated to register the growth rate of 4.5% over the forecast period.

Market Insights and Analyst View:

Medical tapes and bandages are products used to secure and protect wounds, injuries, and surgical incisions. These products include adhesive tapes, cohesive bandages, compression bandages, elastic bandages, and gauze dressings. The medical tapes and bandages market is primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic disorders and injuries, rising demand for wound care products, and a surge in the geriatric population. Additionally, Technological advancements in medical tapes and bandages have led to the development of products with improved adhesion, flexibility, and breathability. Moreover, increasing product launches and strategic development by market players led to the growth of medical tapes and bandages. 

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

According to the American College of Surgeons, approximately 1–2% of people globally are likely to experience a chronic wound once in their lifetime. Similarly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that annually, ~385,000 sharp injuries occur among healthcare workers in the US, and the number is likely to reach up to 800,000 injuries annually. Besides sharp injuries, workplace injuries or occupational injuries are increasing worldwide. Poor working conditions are the major cause of the rise in chronic wounds. As per the International Labor Organization, ~2.3 million people suffer from work-related accidents every year. These wounds affect patients’ health and overall quality of life. The burden of chronic wounds eventually relates to the need for advanced wound care management to reduce the financial burden of national healthcare systems. Various countries spend significant amounts on treating injuries and avoiding associated risks. For instance, the US healthcare system spends over US$ 25 billion annually on treating wounds and related complications. Therefore, the demand for medical tapes and bandages is increasing with a surge in the prevalence of chronic wounds globally.

Furthermore, the number of cardiovascular, orthopedic, general, cancer, and gynecological surgeries performed in hospitals is increasing rapidly worldwide. For instance, the European Commission said that ~ 1.14 million cesarean sections were performed in the European region in 2021. Furthermore, the surge in the geriatric population is one of the major factors responsible for severe health conditions leading to surgical treatment. Surgeries for hernias and cataracts are more common among elderly people. Furthermore, aesthetic surgeries are more common in the entertainment industry. These surgeries are performed on individuals who require the replacement or reconstruction of a body part due to deformity or injury. Therefore, the increasing number of surgeries performed at hospitals or other healthcare centers is causing the demand for medical tapes and bandages.

However, increasing awareness about technologically advanced wound care products is expected to hamper the medical tapes and bandages market growth. The conventional medical tapes and bandages take a long time to heal the wound, and sometimes it gets infected. Advanced wound care products maintain favorable conditions, expedite healing, and offer advantages above conventional medical tapes and bandages. Thus, the factors discussed above will likely hinder the growth of medical tapes and bandages.

In 2022, North America held the largest medical tapes and bandages market share, closely followed by Europe, and Asia Pacific is estimated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The major growth factors for the North American market are the surge in the geriatric population and the increasing number of surgical procedures performed annually in the region. The US accounts for the major market share in North America owing to the increase in surgical procedures and wound care in the US. According to the American Joint Replacement Registry (AJRR), it is estimated that by 2030, ~ 3.48 million people will be requiring knee replacement. The estimates are calculated by considering the baby boomers reaching old age in the United States.

Total Joint Replacement (TJR) is one of the most performed elective surgical procedures in the U.S. As per the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS), by 2030, primary total hip replacement (THR) is projected to grow 171%. Primary total knee replacement (TKR) is expected to increase up to 189% for a projected 635,000 and 1.28 million procedures, respectively.

Meanwhile, some players are teaming up with start-up companies to develop joint ventures to strengthen their positions in the market. For instance, in March 2022, Medline and Hologenix partnered on a new CURAD brand of orthopedic products powered by CELLIANT infrared technology. This partnership substantially increases the commitment to expand the use of infrared in the orthopedic soft goods market.

However, Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing region in the global medical tapes and bandages market. The market in this region is expected to increase significantly in countries such as China, Japan, and India. The market's growth is attributed to the rising number of plastic surgeries and increasing demand for medical tourism in developing countries such as India and China. Moreover, the increase in surgical procedures and the surge in healthcare expenditure are expected to fuel market growth during 2022-2030. China accounts for the largest market share, and India is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate owing to the increasing number of surgical procedures and medical tourism in the country. The number of plastic surgeries performed in India is increasing day by day. According to the World Population Review report, ~ 370,656 plastic surgeries were performed in India during 2023. Additionally, China's changing attitudes toward self-image, growing wealth, technological advancements, and obsession with celebrity culture led to an increase in surgical procedures. In China, beauty is considered an advantage in the competitive mid-level workplace as applicants are often required to provide a photograph with their application.

Apart from Plastic surgeries, Orthopedic, and general surgeries are also propelling the market for medical tapes and bandages in China. According to the Economist Intelligence report, China has experienced a 20% increase in surgical volume in 2021 compared to 2020.

Moreover, The Lancet Commission for Global Surgery estimates that ~5,000 surgeries are required to reduce the surgical burden of disease for 1,00,000 people in low and middle-income countries, like India. As per the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare report, about two crore surgeries (which require hospitalization and general anesthesia) were conducted in 2020, and C-section was the most performed surgery. Out of the two crore surgeries done in 2020, 80 lakhs were general (including hernia, haemorrhoidectomy, trauma, cholecystectomy, and laparoscopy surgeries), followed by 50 lakh gynecology surgeries, out of which up to 70% or 35,00,000 were C-sections. Neurology, orthopedic gastrointestinal, oncology, and cardiology surgeries stood at 10 lakhs each. Additionally, the minimal cost of the surgeries in India attracts more foreign patients to visit India for various types of treatment. The lower cost of the surgeries is also responsible for the increasing medical tourism in India. The medical packages provided are very affordable to global health and wellness travelers. The leading hospitals in India have expertise in ophthalmology, cardiology, joint replacement, cardiothoracic surgery, urology, orthopedic surgery, gastroenterology, and multi-organ transplant surgery. All the surgeries are performed by expert surgeons who use the latest technological equipment, which are of comparatively lower prices than the other countries falling in the Western region.

Moreover, the treatments are offered according to the patient’s requirements and affordability. Therefore, there is an increase in medical tourism due to the lower cost of treatment and better facilities and treatment provided by the hospitals. These will enable the conducting of more surgical procedures and will eventually grow the medical tapes and bandages market during 2022-2030.
