Market Growth Factors

The population rises in age, and chronic disorders appear often to drive the segment. For instance, as of January 2024, 21.6% of the EU population aged 65 years or older, and 6.1% aged 80 years or older. As aging skin declines in its ability to heal, and as diabetes and vascular disease increase, a growing clinical need to care for wounds arises across healthcare systems.

The market has been driven by new technologies such as advanced biomaterials and antimicrobial dressings with tissue regenerative capability. In 2025, Rapid Nexus Nanotech Wound Solutions received FDA 510(k) clearance to market the Hemastyl gel for creation of chronic wound bed as clinical evidence develops supporting adoption into standard of care.

Cost-effective wound dressings are integrated into many health systems in Europe, based on cost over the treatment pathway (faster healing, fewer dressing changes, fewer infections, shorter hospital stays, etc.). Total cost of care analyzes favor technologies that improve complication and readmission rates, offering market growth opportunities in hospital and community settings.
