The global hydrogel market size reached US$ 26.2 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 36.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7% during 2023-2028.
Hydrogel is a three-dimensional (3D) network of hydrophilic polymers that can absorb and retain a large amount of water without dissolving. It comprises collagen, silk fibroin, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, and alginate, which helps respond to various stimuli, such as pH, temperature, chemical and light. It is flexible, versatile, environment-sensitive, cost-effective, and biocompatible with most cells. As a result, it finds extensive applications in sanitation, monitoring drug delivery, medication delivery systems, microfluids and converting, packaging, coal dewatering, nutrition, and food additives worldwide.

Hydrogel Market Trends:
The rising employment of hydrogels in the pharmaceutical industry to increase the storage stability of existing medical products represents one of the key factors driving the market. It is also included in wound dressing to moisturize the wound and aid in repairing the epidermis, removing extra dead tissues, and granulating the healing process. In addition, the growing utilization of hydrogels in sanitary products to make thinner pads with higher absorbency and increase swelling pressure and suction power is positively influencing the market. Besides this, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and governments of several countries are organizing awareness programs to spread awareness about menstrual hygiene. This, coupled with the escalating demand for baby diapers, sanitary napkins, and paper towels across the globe, is contributing to the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing usage of hydrogel in contact lenses, biotechnology, and agriculture around the world is stimulating the growth of the market. Other factors projected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to industry players operating in the market are the rising infant and geriatric population, growing research and development (R&D) to create new and advanced products and technological advancements in the healthcare industry.Key Market Segmentation:
