Deep Partial-Thickness Thermal Burns Global Market Report 2025

The deep partial-thickness thermal burns market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.18 billion in 2024 to $1.28 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The expansion during the historical period was driven by a rise in domestic fire-related incidents, enhanced public awareness regarding specialized burn treatment, increasing hospital admissions due to thermal injuries, improved access to advanced wound care solutions, and heightened governmental efforts to implement burn prevention strategies.

The deep partial-thickness thermal burns market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.76 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. Factors fueling this future growth include increasing demand for customized burn care solutions, greater utilization of innovative wound care technologies, rising funding in burn treatment research and development, broader adoption of 3D bioprinting for medical use, and a growing emphasis on rapid healing with minimal scarring. Key trends anticipated during the forecast period include progress in 3D bioprinting for treating burns, development of biomaterial-based skin graft alternatives, creation of smart dressings equipped with sensors, advancements in regenerative therapies for severe burns, and expansion of telehealth applications in burn care and diagnosis.

The increasing prevalence of burn cases is anticipated to drive the growth of the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market. Burn cases involve damage to the skin caused by heat, flames, hot objects, electricity, or chemicals. This rise in burn injuries is primarily attributed to the growing use of cooking equipment and open flames in residential settings, especially in overcrowded or hazardous living environments, which leads to more accidental fires and contact with hot surfaces. Deep partial-thickness thermal burns are treated with advanced medical products such as specialized wound dressings, skin grafts, and regenerative therapies. These treatments aid in improving healing, reducing complications, and accelerating recovery, while also minimizing scarring and the risk of long-term functional impairments. For example, according to a November 2023 report by the East London NHS Foundation Trust, approximately 250,000 people in the UK sustain burn injuries each year, with around 175,000 visiting A&E departments and about 16,000 requiring hospital admission for specialist treatment. As a result, the rising number of burn cases is contributing significantly to the market's growth.

Key players in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns treatment market are emphasizing advanced technologies such as non-surgical enzymatic eschar removal to improve treatment outcomes for both adults and children. This method allows for the quick and selective removal of burn eschar using topical biological agents, thereby eliminating the need for traditional surgical debridement. For instance, in August 2024, Vericel Corporation, a US-based biopharmaceutical company, received FDA approval for the pediatric use of NexoBrid (anacaulase-bcdb) for eschar removal in pediatric patients with deep partial-thickness and full-thickness thermal burns. NexoBrid is not recommended for individuals with known allergies to pineapple, bromelain, papain, or any other ingredients in the product, as it may trigger hypersensitivity reactions such as anaphylaxis. It should also be used cautiously in patients on anticoagulants due to a potential risk of bleeding.

In April 2024, Bharat Serums and Vaccines (BSV), a pharmaceutical company based in India, partnered with MediWound to launch and distribute NexoBrid in the Indian market, aiming to enhance the standard of care in burn wound management. MediWound Ltd., headquartered in Israel, is a biopharmaceutical company specializing in next-generation enzymatic therapies for non-surgical tissue repair, including treatments for deep partial-thickness and full-thickness thermal burns.

Deep partial-thickness thermal burns are injuries that destroy the entire epidermis and penetrate deeply into the dermis, reaching the reticular layer, but leaving some skin appendages such as hair follicles and sweat glands intact. These burns typically present with a mottled red or white appearance, diminished or absent capillary refill, and reduced pain due to potential nerve damage. Healing is often prolonged - typically exceeding three weeks - and without surgical intervention, these burns are likely to result in substantial scarring.

Treatment for deep partial-thickness thermal burns primarily includes initial wound care, physical and occupational therapy, along with other supportive measures. Initial wound care plays a crucial role in reducing tissue damage and preventing infection and is applicable across various types of burns, including injuries from fire, scalding, or contact with hot objects. These treatments are made available through a range of distribution channels such as direct tenders, hospital pharmacies, online pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and others. They are commonly used by end users such as hospitals, specialty clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, home healthcare settings, and other facilities.
