Global Hydrophilic Coatings Market By Overview
Hydrophilic Coatings Market was valued at USD 18.9 Billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.2% to reach USD 38.9 Billion by 2034.
Hydrophilic coatings are wettable coatings with the low friction that can be applied to various types of medical devices. These medical devices may include cannulas, catheters, and guide wires on which hydrophilic coatings if applied, helps to prevent devices from the colonization of bacteria. A lubricious surface is produced by the Hydrophilic coatings on the devices which reduces the irritation that is caused by insertion of devices in the body.
The market in North America currently dominates the market for hydrophilic coatings and is expected to continue its strong hold for a few more years owing to growing awareness regarding benefits associated with non-invasive surgery procedures, coupled with the increasing penetration of hydrophilic coatings in the various en- use applications in aerospace and automotive sector in the countries of the region.
The markets in Asia-Pacific is expected to register high growth rate, owing to increasing geriatric population in countries of region, which is supporting the growth of medical sector, in turn rising demand for hydrophilic coatings in the medical devices, over the forecast period.
Moreover, growing adoption of hydrophilic coatings from end-use industries, such as healthcare, automotive, aerospace, and marine owing to its qualities such as biocompatibility, durability, and flexibility is another major factor propelling the growth of hydrophilic coatings across the globe. However, high costs associated with the production of hydrophilic coatings, coupled with its lower shelf life are the major factors restraining the growth of the target market.
Hydrophilic coatings market has been segmented on the basis of end-use industry, substrate, and region.
The end-use industry segment includes healthcare, automotive, aerospace, marine, optics, and others. The substrate segment is further sub segmented into polymers, glass, metal, nanoparticles, and others.
On the basis of region the target market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa. North America is expected to account major market share as compared to that of other regions.
