Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surgical screws are gaining traction for their mechanical reliability, compatibility with imaging technologies, and ability to mimic the properties of natural bone. Medical professionals prefer PEEK over metallic alternatives due to its radiolucency and non-reactive nature, which helps avoid complications during and after procedures. Its modulus of elasticity is closer to that of natural bone, which allows for better load sharing and reduces the risk of stress shielding - a key reason for implant failure. With increasing investments in surgical innovation and material science, the PEEK segment is positioning itself as a critical element in the evolution of orthopedic and spinal care technologies.
The product landscape of the PEEK surgical screws market includes cortical screws, cancellous screws, and hybrid screws. In 2024, cortical screws held the dominant position, capturing 47.2% of the total market revenue. These screws are designed for high-density bone and are widely used in long bone fracture fixation. Their durability and strength make them an ideal solution for trauma-related procedures, which are on the rise due to the growing number of physical injuries occurring in various environments.
The application areas for PEEK surgical screws are diverse and include joint replacement, trauma fixation, dental implants, spinal fusion, and other surgical uses. Among these, the spinal fusion segment emerged as the largest contributor in 2024, generating USD 180.3 million in revenue. The segment’s prominence stems from the rising prevalence of spinal disorders that often require surgical stabilization. With more people experiencing chronic spine conditions, surgeons are increasingly opting for PEEK-based solutions that provide reliable fixation without compromising diagnostic imaging quality.
When analyzed by end-use, hospitals represented the largest user base for PEEK surgical screws, holding a market share of 57.1% in 2024. Hospitals are equipped with advanced surgical technologies and experienced teams that regularly conduct complex orthopedic and spinal surgeries. These facilities are particularly suited to incorporate high-performance materials like PEEK, which offer enhanced safety, MRI compatibility, and long-term durability. The growing focus on minimizing post-surgical complications is also pushing hospitals to adopt next-generation implant materials.
Regionally, North America led the global market, reaching a valuation of USD 216.6 million in 2024, with projections indicating a CAGR of 6.6% through the forecast period. The U.S. market alone accounted for USD 195.2 million in 2024 and is forecasted to grow significantly, reflecting the region’s advanced healthcare infrastructure and high surgical volumes. The increasing number of individuals affected by orthopedic and spinal disorders is creating a strong demand for PEEK-based implants across both inpatient hospitals and outpatient surgical centers. This demand is further supported by healthcare providers’ preference for non-metallic, radiolucent implants that support faster recovery and better outcomes.
The competitive landscape consists of both multinational and domestic companies striving to offer advanced and accessible products. Collectively, major players in the market account for approximately 65% of global revenue. Innovation, affordability, and adaptability to regional market needs remain crucial differentiators. In price-sensitive regions, domestic manufacturers are addressing demand with cost-effective alternatives, prompting global companies to modify their pricing and product strategies while maintaining quality and compliance with regulatory standards. The evolving demand for tailored and safer implant materials continues to shape the competitive dynamics within this market.
