The global wound dressing market was valued at $11.4 billion in 2017 and is predicted to advance at a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period (2018–2023). The factors driving the market are increasing number of road accidents, burn cases, surgeries, incedents of chronic wounds, such as pressure ulcers and venous ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers, and growing prevalence of diabetes. Wound dressings are used to hasten the process of wound healing by allowing the exchange of gases, absorbing exudates, offering thermal insulation, and preventing entry of infection-causing agents.
