Pune, India, May, 2018 /press release/- Market Research Future Published a Half Cooked Research Report on Global Biomedical Textiles Research Report.

Biomedical Textiles Market Highlights

The global biomedical textiles market is spanned across five regions namely Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. 

Asia Pacific was the largest market for biomedical textiles market in 2023 and is expected to exhibit exponential growth over the forecast period. Growing healthcare industry due to expanding population, rising cases of chronic diseases on account of lifestyle changes, growing foreign investments on account of FDI campaign & relaxed investment norms are likely to boost demand of biomedical textiles during the forecast period. Furthermore, various government initiatives particularly in India such as Air Dispensary, The Intensified Mission Indradhanush (IMI), National Nutrition Mission (NNM), LaQshya, and continuation of National Health Mission are also expected to be contributing to the growth of the regional biomedical textiles market over the forecast period.

North America and Europe market is relatively mature due to established healthcare facilities and availability of sophisticated products and is expected to provide limited opportunities to the biomedical textiles market over the forecast period.

The Middle East & Africa is likely to witness rising growth during the forecast period.  GCC countries are expected to witness robust growth during the forecast period owing to various government initiatives such as investments to upgrade hospitals and clinics, build new facilities, and enforce mandatory health insurance schemes in light of local economic, demographic and epidemiological transitions. High rates of illness and mortality caused by chronic diseases due to lifestyle changes are the factor responsible for these government initiatives.

After the recent economic downturn, Latin America is expected to grow at a moderate CAGR over the forecast period. However, the region is witnessing growing imports of medical equipment, which can be directly linked to the rise in the demand for healthcare facilities on account of rising government initiatives to increase access to healthcare, virtual doctors scheme, and rapidly aging population among others.
