Global Bioresorbable Polymers Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Bioresorbable Polymers market size is expected to reach $ 2764 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 8.5% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Bioresorbable polymers, also referred to as biodegradable polymers, are a class of materials that can safely degrade and be absorbed by the human body after fulfilling their intended purpose. These polymers are engineered to disintegrate into non-toxic by-products, such as water, carbon dioxide, or bio-compatible compounds, that the body can easily metabolize or excrete. Their ability to perform specific functions, such as providing structural support or delivering therapeutic agents, followed by natural degradation, makes them highly desirable for a variety of medical and industrial applications.
Bioresorbable polymers are primarily used in healthcare, particularly in medical devices, drug delivery systems, and surgical implants. They are widely adopted in applications like orthopedic fixation devices, sutures, stents, tissue engineering scaffolds, and biodegradable drug carriers. The demand for bioresorbable polymers is driven by the increasing need for minimally invasive medical solutions, advancements in material science, and a growing focus on reducing long-term complications associated with permanent implants.
The bioresorbable polymers market includes the production, distribution, and application of polymers that can biodegrade within the human body or the environment without causing harm. These materials are synthesized from both natural and synthetic sources, with their properties tailored to meet specific functional and regulatory requirements.
Polylactic Acid (PLA): Commonly used in sutures and tissue scaffolds.
Polyglycolic Acid (PGA): Known for its high strength and rapid degradation rate, used in surgical sutures.
Polycaprolactone (PCL): Used in drug delivery systems and tissue engineering.
Poly (Lactic-co-Glycolic Acid) (PLGA): A copolymer used for drug delivery and tissue regeneration.
Natural Polymers: Includes chitosan, collagen, and alginate.
Minimally invasive surgeries are becoming the standard in modern medicine due to their reduced recovery time, lower risk of complications, and improved patient outcomes. Bioresorbable polymers play a pivotal role in such procedures by providing temporary support or drug delivery without the need for subsequent removal surgeries. For instance, bioresorbable stents in cardiovascular applications eliminate the complications associated with permanent implants.
The field of tissue engineering relies heavily on bioresorbable polymers for the development of scaffolds that support cell growth and tissue regeneration. These materials mimic the extracellular matrix, providing a temporary framework that degrades as new tissue forms. With increasing investments in regenerative medicine and organ transplantation, the demand for bioresorbable polymers is set to rise.
Bioresorbable polymers are widely used in controlled drug delivery systems, where they serve as carriers for pharmaceuticals, ensuring targeted and sustained release. The rising prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and cancer, is driving the adoption of innovative drug delivery systems, thereby boosting the demand for bioresorbable polymers.
North America is the largest consumption place, with a consumption market share nearly 40% in 2024. Following Europe, Europe is the second largest consumption place with the consumption market share of 30%. Market competition is not intense. Evonik, Corbion, DSM, Poly-Med, KLS Martin, etc. are the leaders of the industry, and they hold key technologies and patents, with high-end customers; have been formed in the monopoly position in the industry.
