(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 25, 2019 ) The biomaterials market is projected to reach USD 149.17 Billion by 2021 from USD 70.90 Billion in 2016, at a CAGR of 16.0%. The growth of the overall market can be attributed to increased funds & grants by government bodies worldwide, the growing implantable devices market, technological advancements, rising number of hip and knee replacement procedures, and high growth in geriatric population coupled with growing incidence of cardiovascular diseases.

This report segments the biomaterials market based on type of material, application, and region. On the basis of type of material, the metallic biomaterials segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global market, in 2016; owing to their unique properties such as biocompatibility, strength, and resistance to breakage, which makes them suitable for usage in various medical applications such as orthopedic, cardiovascular, wound healing, and dentistry. The polymeric biomaterials segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increasing use of polymers in soft tissue applications such as plastic surgeries.
