Cyanoacrylate Surgical Sealants And Adhesives Market Summary
The global cyanoacrylate surgical sealants and adhesives market size was estimated at USD 1.40 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1.92 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2025 to 2030. The growth of the cyanoacrylate surgical sealants and adhesives market is driven by the increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries, which has led to the adoption of advanced wound closure technologies, as these sealants provide quick and effective solutions.
Moreover, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases necessitates more surgical interventions, which further accelerates market growth. In addition, expanding investments in healthcare infrastructure worldwide enable greater availability and usage of these products. The market is witnessing significant expansion, driven by the global surge in surgical procedure volumes and the accelerating adoption of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques.
There is an important shift from traditional wound closure methods such as sutures and staples, particularly in complex or delicate procedures, where cyanoacrylates offer superior sealing capabilities and reduced tissue trauma. The advantages of cyanoacrylate, such as rapid polymerization, strong adhesion to moist tissues, and the ability to create a watertight seal, are increasing their role in specialties ranging from general surgery to cardiovascular and neurosurgery.
This demand is further fueled by an aging global population and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases necessitating surgical interventions, increasing the overall demand for efficient and effective wound management solutions. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the global geriatric population aged 60 years and above is expected to increase from 1.1 billion in 2023 to reach around 1.4 billion by 2030. The market's growth is also influenced by the clinical benefits these adhesives provide, including decreased operative time, reduced risk of leakage, and potentially lower rates of post-operative complications. These are critical considerations for healthcare providers aiming to improve patient outcomes and optimize resource utilization. Moreover, diversifying different types of cyanoacrylate surgical sealants and adhesives enables cyanoacrylates to penetrate new surgical domains, including ophthalmology for corneal repair and orthopedics for bone fragment stabilization, significantly broadening their applications.
The rising prevalence of chronic diseases and traumatic injuries has significantly contributed to the growing application of cyanoacrylate surgical sealants and adhesives. Globally, the increasing incidence of diabetes, vascular disorders, and obesity-related complications has led to a higher number of surgical interventions requiring efficient wound closure solutions. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), around 589 people aged 20-79 were living with diabetes in 2024, and this prevalence of diabetes is expected to reach around 853 million by 2050. Similarly, cyanoacrylate surgical adhesives have become increasingly integral to trauma and emergency medicine due to their rapid application, strong tissue adhesion, and reduced infection risk. In high-pressure emergency settings, such as accident and trauma centers, these adhesives offer a fast and efficient alternative to traditional sutures for superficial lacerations, scalp wounds, and facial injuries. According to the WHO, approximately 1.19 million people lose their lives annually due to road traffic crashes, with an additional 20-50 million suffering non-fatal injuries, many of whom incur disabilities. Thus, the demand for cyanoacrylate surgical sealants and adhesives is expected to be driven by the rising number of road traffic accidents and occupational injuries, particularly in countries where trauma admissions are significantly increasing.
