Surgical Sutures Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2020-2030F

Automated Suturing Device is the fastest growing segment, North America is the largest regional market

The Global Surgical Sutures Market, valued at USD 4.92 Billion in 2024, is projected to experience a CAGR of 7.00% to reach USD 7.38 Billion by 2030. Surgical sutures are specialized medical devices employed to appose tissue following surgical incisions or traumatic injuries. The global market for these products is primarily driven by the escalating volume of surgical procedures performed worldwide, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases necessitating surgical intervention, and the demographic trend of an aging global population, which generally requires more medical care.

Key Market Drivers

The global surgical sutures market expansion is significantly propelled by the increasing worldwide volume of surgical procedures. Enhanced healthcare access and a growing prevalence of medical conditions requiring intervention contribute to a consistent rise in operations performed, directly increasing demand for wound closure materials. According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) Global Survey, in June 2025, over 17.4 million surgical aesthetic procedures were performed by plastic surgeons worldwide in 2024, illustrating a notable increase in this key segment. This expanding procedural volume underscores the continuous need for diverse suture types to facilitate tissue approximation and support optimal patient healing.

Key Market Challenges

The global surgical sutures market faces a significant challenge from the ongoing development and adoption of alternative wound closure techniques. Products such as surgical staplers, tissue adhesives, and sealants are increasingly favored in various clinical settings. These alternatives often offer distinct benefits, including potentially faster closure times, a reduced risk of needle-stick injuries for surgical staff, and enhanced cosmetic outcomes for patients. Such advantages directly influence clinical preferences and divert demand away from traditional suturing products.

Key Market Trends

The rising adoption of minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgical techniques is significantly shaping the global surgical sutures market. These advanced surgical methods, characterized by smaller incisions and enhanced precision, necessitate specialized wound closure materials. The increasing volume of robotic-assisted procedures directly influences the demand for sutures compatible with robotic arms, such as barbed sutures that eliminate the need for knot tying, thereby streamlining surgical workflows and potentially reducing operative times.
