Surgical Sealants and Adhesives Market Size

Global Surgical Sealants and Adhesives Market reached USD 1.8 Billion and is expected to reach US$ 3.1 Billion by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

Surgical sealants and adhesives are used to repair injured tissues, available in the form of films and foams, and aid by creating a hemostatic layer, which stops the blood and air leakage from the targeted area. It helps to repair the strengthened surgical wounds, binding the tissues together externally and internally after injury or surgery and even replacing common stitching practices. They are most widely used for vascular reconstruction to achieve mechanical hemostasis. In addition, surgical sealants are also used for aortic root replacements, suture line replacements, anastomosis and prevention of arterial and venous bleeding. Most commercial surgical sealants are versatile, biocompatible, and biodegradable. Surgical sealants may be synthetic or natural or maybe a mixture of both. Natural surgical sealants typically contain polypeptides/proteins and polysaccharides. Synthetic sealants include polyurethane, polyethene glycol and polymer adhesives, respectively. The major factors propelling the growth of the surgical sealants and adhesives market are the rising need for effective blood loss management in patients, the increasing number of surgical procedures across the globe and the growing use of technologically advanced products.

Surgical Sealants and Adhesives Market Growth and Trends

Rising number of surgical procedures across the globe drives market growth.

The growing demand for surgical services and the concerns about the reduction of surgical wounds are factors leading to the growth of this sector. Globally, the number of surgeries underway has risen dramatically. According to WHO estimates, globally, 310 million surgeries are performed annually, around 40 to 50 million in the USA and 20 million in Europe. Surgical procedures are usually followed by a risk of injury, severe bleeding or tissue damage. In addition, patients with diabetes need to be extra careful as their risks of complications during and after surgery are considerably higher.

Moreover, the demand for surgical sealants is mainly driven by a growing prevalence of invasive surgery. Traditionally, sutures/wires/staples are used for sealing wounds and pose serious threats such as tissue injury, infection and delayed tissue repair. Due to rapid technological development, conventional approaches are replaced by surgical sealants, leading to the industry's burgeoning growth. In addition, recent advances have led to the development of biocompatible sealants, which have reduced complications associated with invasive surgery. It also enables the natural movement of tissues without any intervention in the functioning of the organs. Among the various types of surgical sealants, synthetic adhesives have high mechanical and adhesive strength. These features have made the synthetic surgical sealants segment more attractive than natural sealants and are expected to see substantial growth during the forecast era. These factors have contributed to a potential increase in the demand for surgical sealants.

However, the high costs associated with surgical sealants and the availability of surgical adhesives and sealant substitutes impede the growth of this industry. For example, minimally invasive surgery is an option since this technique requires only a minor incision for the operation, avoiding bleeding and air leakage complications.

Surgical Sealants and Adhesives Market Segmentation Analysis

Natural or biological is projected to be the dominant segment in the market during the forecast period.

Based on the Type, the Surgical Sealants and Adhesives market has been classified into Natural or Biological and synthetic & semi-synthetic.

The demand for surgical sealants and adhesives is divided into natural/biological sealants and adhesives and synthetic and semi-synthetic sealants and adhesives. The natural/biological seals and adhesives segment accounted for the largest market share in 2021. This section is further segmented into polypeptide/protein-based sealants, adhesives and polysaccharide-based sealants and adhesives. A large proportion of natural/biological sealants and adhesives can be due to the fact that sealants derived from natural polymers have superior biocompatibility, reduced immune response and in vivo degradability compared to synthetic sealants and are used to repair wound tissues and strengthen surgical wounds, thereby replacing traditional suture techniques.

Application is segmented on the basis of the Central nervous system, cardiovascular, general surgery, orthopedic, pulmonary, urology, ophthalmology, cosmetic surgery and others.

Cosmetic surgery held a significant market share in the surgical sealants and adhesives market. The cosmetic surgery segment is expected to see the fastest growth in the market during the forecast period. It is due to the growing use of tissue sealants, and adhesives for cosmetic procedures and burns care surgery. It is also expected to increase with a rising amount of facial cosmetic operations, increasing skin injuries, an increasing rate of burn injuries and an increasing number of breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy and breast reconstruction worldwide.

Surgical Sealants and Adhesives Market Geographical Share

North America is the dominating region during the forecast period.

Based on geography, the study analyzes the Surgical Sealants and Adhesives market in the global market, including North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa.

North America is holding a dominant position in the global surgical sealants and adhesives market in 2021. The U.S. is expected to represent considerable growth in North America during the forecast period. In the U.S., the rising number of surgical procedures is the major factor driving the market growth. For instance, according to the National Cancer for health statistics, in 2021, 1,898,160 new cancer cases are projected to occur in the United States. Therefore surge in surgeries can be attributed to the increase in the geriatric population, who are more prone to having the cardiac disorder. It is anticipated to boost the surgical sealant and adhesives market.

Moreover, the surgical sealants and adhesives market for the Asia Pacific is expected to observe rapid growth over the forecast period, backed by increasing health awareness, increasing per capita income, increasing medical tourism, the existence of less stringent regulations and the demand for quality healthcare is expected to drive the growth of this market during the forecast period.

In December 2021, B.D., a leading global medical technology company, acquired Tissuemed Ltd, an industry leader in developing self-adhesive surgical sealant films. This acquisition completed the B.D.s core product portfolio by adding advanced sealant to its surgical solutions portfolio. This acquisition expands B.D.s global offering for surgeons outside of the United States.

COVID-19 Impact:

Negative impact on the global surgical sealants and adhesives market.

During the Covid pandemic number of surgeries decreases due to avoiding infection and preventing the risk of Covid; only emergency surgeries are done during the pandemic. Compared to 2019, a 41.6% decrease in the number of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment procedures was observed. As a result of the decrease in surgeries, the demand for surgical sealants and adhesive products has decreased.
