Non-Absorbable Mesh Global Market Report 2025

The non-absorbable mesh market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.23 billion in 2024 to $1.32 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. Growth during the historical period can be attributed to rising healthcare expenditure, increased demand for long-lasting implant materials, expansion in the availability of specialized surgical mesh products, a growing number of hospitals and surgical facilities, and a heightened emphasis on improving patient outcomes.

The non-absorbable mesh market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.78 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The forecast period’s growth is driven by increasing demand for durable surgical implants, rising investments in healthcare infrastructure, higher prevalence of chronic conditions requiring surgical procedures, greater focus on reducing post-surgical complications, and an increasing shift toward outpatient surgical procedures. Key trends anticipated include advancements in mesh technology for better biocompatibility, novel manufacturing methods enabling customized mesh designs, innovations in antimicrobial coatings to reduce infection risks, use of 3D printing for tailored implants, and progress in minimally invasive surgical tools.

The increasing prevalence of hernias is anticipated to drive the growth of the non-absorbable mesh market in the coming years. A hernia is the abnormal protrusion of an organ or tissue through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. This condition is becoming more common due to the rising incidence of obesity, which exerts added pressure on the abdominal muscles and weakens the abdominal wall. Non-absorbable mesh is used to treat hernias by providing long-term structural support to the affected tissue, thereby reducing the likelihood of recurrence. For example, in July 2024, Eurostat, a government agency based in Luxembourg, reported that in 2022, inguinal hernia repairs were generally carried out at rates between 142 and 231 per 100,000 inhabitants in most countries, with Austria recording a notably high rate of 273.2 per 100,000 inhabitants. As a result, the increasing occurrence of hernias is contributing to the expansion of the non-absorbable mesh market.

Leading companies in the non-absorbable mesh market are concentrating on developing next-generation innovations, such as coated composite mesh, to improve biocompatibility and minimize complications after surgery. Coated composite mesh is a type of surgical mesh that features a protective coating to reduce tissue adhesion and inflammation, thereby enhancing safety when implanted in the body. For instance, in April 2024, Deep Blue Medical Advances Inc., a U.S.-based medical device company, introduced the T-Line Hernia Mesh. This innovative product addresses common hernia repair challenges like tissue failure and adhesion. The mesh includes integrated extensions that provide 15 times more fixation surface area compared to traditional sutures, delivering anchoring strength that is 275% greater. Made from macroporous, medium-weight polypropylene, it supports effective tissue integration and helps distribute stress evenly across the repair site. The mesh is also user-friendly, conforms to anatomical variations, and removes the need for additional fixation tools, enhancing both the security and efficiency of surgical procedures.

In July 2024, Duomed Holding Benelux N.V., a medical technology company based in Belgium, acquired REY Medical SA for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is intended to bolster Duomed's presence in the Swiss market for minimally invasive surgery, with a particular focus on hernia treatment. REY Medical SA, a Switzerland-based firm, supplies non-absorbable surgical mesh products.

Non-absorbable mesh refers to a surgical mesh type that is made from materials designed to remain permanently within the body without degrading over time. It is utilized in surgical procedures to provide lasting support to weakened or damaged tissue. Non-absorbable mesh is predominantly used in hernia repair surgeries, where it helps reinforce the abdominal wall to prevent recurrence. It is also employed in procedures involving pelvic organ prolapse, as well as abdominal and chest wall reconstruction.

The primary types of non-absorbable mesh include prosthetic mesh, composite mesh, monofilament mesh, and multifilament mesh. Prosthetic mesh is a medical device composed of synthetic or biological materials that support and strengthen weakened or damaged tissues, particularly in hernia repair surgeries. These meshes are often made from biocompatible materials such as polypropylene, polyester, polyethylene, and others. They are used in various surgical settings, including hernia repair and pelvic floor reconstruction. The main end-users of these meshes are hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, clinics, and other healthcare facilities.
