Burn Care Global Market Report 2025

The burn care market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.5 billion in 2024 to $2.68 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increased use of skin grafts and substitutes, the rising incidence of burn injuries, growing patient awareness of burn care treatments, technological advancements in products such as biologics and dressings, and supportive government initiatives.

The burn care market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.57 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing demand for minimally invasive burn treatments, rising healthcare expenditure, greater patient awareness of advanced burn care management, a growing preference for biologics and advanced wound care products, and the expansion of government and private programs. Major trends include the development of advanced burn care products and minimally invasive procedures, the use of biologics and skin grafts for severe burns, the emergence of tissue-engineered products and biological substitutes, the adoption of telehealth platforms for burn care management, and continuous technological innovations in burn care treatments.

The increasing number of fire-related industrial accidents is expected to drive growth in the burn care market. These accidents occur in industrial environments due to factors such as electrical malfunctions, chemical reactions, machinery failures, human error, and inadequate safety measures, often resulting in injuries and property damage. The rise in such incidents is attributed to expanding industrial operations, insufficient safety protocols, and the growing complexity of machinery and materials. Burn care plays a vital role in treating injuries from industrial fires by facilitating wound healing, managing pain, and preventing complications. For instance, in November 2023, a report by the American Burn Association, a US-based organization focused on burn research, rehabilitation, and prevention, revealed that 30,135 industrial accident burn cases were recorded in 2022, contributing to a total of 152,312 cases over five years. Additionally, flame or flash incidents accounted for 40% of all cases, with over 90% of them being accidental, an increase from the previous year. Consequently, the growing number of fire-related industrial accidents is expected to propel the burn care market.

Companies in the burn care market are focusing on innovative solutions such as extracellular matrix medical devices to enhance healing and improve patient outcomes. These devices, made from biologically derived materials, replicate the natural tissue scaffolding, supporting cellular growth and regeneration in wound care treatments. For example, in March 2023, Convatec Group plc, a UK-based medical device company, received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for InnovaBurn, a first-of-its-kind medical device for managing second-degree burns. InnovaBurn is a xenograft derived from placental tissue, designed for complex wound treatment, including burns, surgical incisions, and ulcers. The manufacturing process involves sourcing raw placental tissues, decellularizing, disinfecting, preserving, processing, and sterilizing them to create the final product. This approval marks a major advancement in burn care, introducing an innovative treatment option that enhances recovery for patients with second-degree burns.
