The medical adhesives market is on the way of growth and this trend will continue by the end of this decade. The growth of the industry has a lot to do with the increasing population, increasing per capita income, increasing healthcare spending in emerging countries, and burgeoning requirement for medical products and equipment.

In the years to come, the water-based category will grow the fastest in the industry. This is because of the beneficial properties of the water-based medical adhesives, for example the delivery of good breathability, decent anchorage to cloth face stocks, and quick tackiness. Their further features such as high resistance to water and moisture and sustainability are also driving the industry.

The internal medical application category will have the highest revenue by the end of this decade. This is because of the snowballing application of bio adhesives for internal medical purposes. Moreover, bio-adhesives are extensively put to use in intracorporal conditions. Internal medical applications need direct contact with physical fluids, tissues, and organs to decrease bleeding problems in the human body. 

With the increasing occurrence of medical conditions needing cutting the flesh for gaining access to the internal organs, the necessity for medical adhesives will escalate in these uses in the future.
North America region led the largest share in the medical adhesives market, as a result of the high requirement, purchasing power, and prospect for innovation in the healthcare industry. Government-funded and -administered programs.

Such initiatives of the government fuel the requirement for medical devices and apparatus, for example syringes, needles, PPE products, thermometers, and more than a few additional medical supplies. These programs have also created a high requirement for adhesive products used to bind or join any two objects in the healthcare premises.
