U.S. antimicrobial additives market size, by type, 2020 - 2030 (USD Million)

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), each year about 1 in 25 patients is diagnosed with at least one health-related infection. Medical devices, such as urinary catheters, vascular access devices, or enteral feeding tubes, are particularly susceptible to the colonization of bacteria, which can enter the bloodstream. Thus, medical device manufacturing companies are focusing on using antimicrobial additives for blending with medical device polymers as these additives are highly successful in preventing bacterial colonization on the surface of device components.

Based on type, the global market is segmented into organic and inorganic. Inorganic was the prominent segment and accounted for around 52.0% of the global revenue share in 2021. The inorganic type of segment is expected to witness significant growth due to the high demand for silver, copper, and zinc based additives. Silver-based products are used as antimicrobial agents owing to their properties, such as non-toxicity, continual performance for a long duration, eco-friendly nature, and protecting microbial growth.
