Active wound care involves the process of removing devitalized and necrotic tissue to facilitate healing. Products used in active wound care include specialized dressings like films, foams, and hydrogels, which serve as physical barriers against infection. The primary objectives of active wound care are to debride damaged skin tissues, control infection and pain, and stimulate the growth of new tissue.
The main types of active wound care biomaterials include skin substitutes, synthetic skin substitutes, and growth factors. These biomaterials function as barriers against infections, supporting the body's natural healing response for effective wound healing. Active wound care is applied to address various indications such as burns, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and lower limb ulcers, catering to both chronic and acute wounds. End-users of active wound care products span across hospitals, clinics, home care settings, and other healthcare facilities.

The active wound care market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.44 billion in 2023 to $1.55 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The historical growth in active wound care can be attributed to various factors. These include the increasing incidence of chronic wounds, a rise in surgical procedures, the prevalence of diabetes, a preference among patients for non-invasive treatments, government initiatives promoting wound care, awareness programs on wound management, and a growing focus on home healthcare. These factors collectively contributed to the development and adoption of active wound care solutions during the historical period.
The active wound care market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.09 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period for active wound care can be attributed to various factors. These include global initiatives focused on wound healing, the increasing geriatric population, the adoption of personalized medicine approaches, a growing demand for faster healing solutions, and the expanding focus on wound care in developing countries. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the increased adoption of advanced wound dressings, technological innovations in wound care products, the use of bioactive and biodegradable materials, the integration of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring, and considerations for economic and cost-effective solutions within the wound care sector.
The anticipated surge in diabetic patients globally is poised to drive the active wound care market in the foreseeable future. Diabetes, often resulting in elevated blood glucose levels and consequent sores and ulcers, escalates the risk of infections and severe complications, necessitating active wound care treatments. As outlined in the December 2021 report by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), approximately 537 million adults between 20 and 79 years old were living with diabetes worldwide, expected to increase to 643 million by 2030 and 783 million by 2045, with 6.7 million deaths attributed to diabetes in 2021. Consequently, the escalating diabetic patient count and related fatalities will significantly fuel the growth of the active wound care market.
The growing aging population is expected to be a driving force behind the expansion of the active wound care market. This demographic shift towards an increased percentage of elderly individuals significantly influences healthcare needs, particularly regarding chronic wound management. Conditions like diabetic ulcers, pressure ulcers, and venous leg ulcers become more prevalent with age, emphasizing the importance of active wound care interventions. Technologies in active wound care, encompassing advanced dressings, regenerative therapies, and bioactive materials, cater to the specific needs of elderly patients, expediting wound healing and minimizing associated complications. With the World Health Organization projecting that by 2030, one in six people worldwide will be aged 60 or older, and by 2050, this age group's population will double to reach 2.1 billion, the rise in the aging populace is a key driver of the active wound care market.
Product innovation stands as a prominent trend gaining traction within the active wound care market. Leading companies within this sector are dedicated to developing novel solutions such as regenerative wound therapy and electrical stimulation technology to meet the evolving market demands. For instance, in January 2022, Accel-Heal Technologies Limited introduced Accel-Heal, a wearable electrical stimulation wound therapy device. This device, designed for easy home use, accelerates the healing process of chronic wounds, including challenging ones like diabetic foot ulcers. The innovation allows patients greater flexibility in receiving therapy, and healthcare professionals can integrate this therapy with existing dressing regimens, reducing the need for frequent nursing visits. The introduction of such advancements facilitates wider accessibility to electrical stimulation wound therapy, benefitting both patients and healthcare providers in managing chronic wounds effectively.
Prominent entities in the active wound care sector are actively introducing cutting-edge products leveraging silicone technology to maintain their competitive edge. Silicone technology involves the utilization of synthetic polymer materials known as silicones, comprised of silicon, oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen. Notably, in January 2023, Convatec, a UK-based medical products and technologies company, unveiled ConvaFoam, an advanced foam dressing engineered to meet healthcare providers' and patients' specific needs. ConvaFoam integrates enhanced silicone technology to offer superior adhesion, improved fluid absorption, a prolonged wear duration of seven days, and incorporates a patterned film design aiding in exudate monitoring. Going beyond standard bandages, ConvaFoam simplifies wound care complexities, providing valuable assistance to both patients and healthcare practitioners in addressing prevailing healthcare challenges.
In a strategic move in December 2021, Essity, a Sweden-based hygiene and health company, completed the acquisition of Hydrofera for USD 116 million. This acquisition strategically aligns with Essity's objectives, augmenting its innovation capabilities and expanding its portfolio in the realm of advanced wound care solutions. Hydrofera, a US-based company specializing in manufacturing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) foam and antibacterial wound dressings, significantly enhances Essity's offerings in the domain of advanced wound care products. The acquisition bolsters Essity's position in the market, fostering innovation and diversification in its range of healthcare solutions.
