Antibacterial Coatings Market

Antibacterial Coatings Market Research, 2030

The global antibacterial coatings market for medical implants was valued at $234.42 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $1.1 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 16.4% from 2021 to 2030. Anti-bacterial coatings are deposited on medical device surfaces to mitigate implant associated infection. Antibacterial coatings are materials that reduce implants related infections in patients by inhibiting bacterial adhesion, colonization, and proliferation of bacteria on the implant surface and into the surrounding tissues. Anti-bacterial coatings require in depth understanding of bacterial infection. Upon implantation of a foreign material, a surface protein layer was immediately formed, and this layer has been shown to be important for bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. These coatings are able to prevent germ growth for many applications in the healthcare sector. 

The COVID-19 outbreak is anticipated to have a negative impact on the global anti-bacterial coatings market for medical implants. This is attributed to decrease in usage of medical implants products resulted in decrease in production of raw materials and complex finished medical products. Thus, decline in medical implants products by key players decrease the usage of anti-bacterial coatings material.

Growth of the global antibacterial coatings market size for medical implants is majorly driven by rise in prevalence of implant associated infections, technological advancements in antibacterial coatings, and high adoption of cardiovascular & orthopedics implants drives the anti-bacterial coatings market growth for medical implants.  For instance, according to the International Osteoporosis Foundation, in 2019, approximately 200 million people were affected by osteoporosis related fractures across the globe. Thus, rise in burden of orthopedic disorders increases the demand for orthopedic implants products and thus, increase the usage of anti-bacterial coatings, which is anticipated to foster antibacterial coatings market growth for medical implants.

Furthermore, rise in geriatric population led to various types of diseases and increase in number of road accidents led to surge in orthopedic implantation procedures are the factors that fuel the growth of the antibacterial coatings market for medical implants. In addition, according to the World Health Organization, in April 2021, 1.3 million people died every year because of road traffic crashes and accidents. Road traffic accidents are the leading cause of death and having disability among people aged between 15 and 29 years due to bone fracture.

In addition, according to the report of the Government of Canada Statistics, as of July 2020, the Canadian elderly population was 6,835,866, thus, the   elderly population is more prone to having osteoporosis. Thus, increasing prevalence of osteoporosis is anticipated to increase the demand for orthopedic implant products. The rise is usage of orthopedic implant products increase the production of anti-bacterial coatings material by key manufacturers lead to increase the growth of the market. Furthermore, surge in geriatric population, who are more vulnerable to cardiovascular disease led to increase in number of cardiac implant surgeries and rise in usage of cardiac implants products increase the production of anti-bacterial coatings propel the growth of the market. Moreover, increase in number of product approvals provides antibacterial coatings market opportunity during the forecast period.

In addition, development of pharmaceutical and medical device industries and improvement in healthcare spending are anticipated to drive the growth of the antibacterial coatings market size for medical implants. In addition, increase in demand for performing dental implants led to development of anti-microbial coatings materials in the healthcare sector, thereby propelling growth of the market.

The COVID-19 outbreak is anticipated to have a negative impact on the global antibacterial coatings industry for medical implants. According to British Cardiovascular Society, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals have postponed non-urgent elective surgeries. The provision of cardiac services was severely restricted due to a shift in the focus in dealing with the surge of patients with COVID-19. In addition, with the alarming increase in the number of COVID-19 cases globally, all countries effectively shut down their manufacturing plants of medical devices. Due to lockdown, decrease in usage of medical implants products resulted in decrease in production of raw materials and complex finished medical products. Thus, decline in medical implants products by key players decrease the usage of anti-bacterial coatings material.

Anti-Bacterial Coatings Market for Medical Implants Segmentation-

The anti-bacterial coatings market for medical implants is segmented on the basis of material, product type, and region. On the basis of material, it is bifurcated into metallic and non-metallic coatings. Metallic coatings are further segmented into silver coatings, copper coatings, and other coatings. Other coating again segmented into bone graft substitutes and craniomaxillofacial implants. Non-metallic coatings segment is further divided into polymeric coatings and organic coatings. By product type, the market is divided into orthopedic, dental, neurovascular, cardiac, and other implants.                                                   

Region-wise, the market is analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Spain, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (Japan, China, Australia, India, South Korea, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Brazil, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and rest of LAMEA).

Segment Review

Depending on material, the metallic segment dominated the antibacterial coatings market share for medical implants in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period, owing to the usage applicability and availability of metallic coatings in medical & clinical settings.

By product type, the other implant segment was the major contributor to the antibacterial coatings industry for medical implants in 2020, and is expected to maintain its lead during the forecast period, is due to increase in surgeries of bone graft substitutes and craniomaxillofacial implants. However, the orthopedic implants segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period, due to increase in number of orthopedic disorders, and road accidents.

Region-wise, North America garnered the major share in the anti-bacterial coatings market for medical implants in 2020, and is expected to continue to dominate during the forecast period, owing to rise in the number of surgeries, presence of key players, development of the healthcare sector, and presence of new anti-bacterial coatings products in the region. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR of 18.2% from 2021 to 2030, owing to increase in prevalence of orthopedic diseases led to increase number of orthopedic implantation procedures and development of healthcare infrastructure.
