Global Orthopedic Bone Cement Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Orthopedic Bone Cement Market Analysis

The Global Orthopedic Bone Cement Market size is estimated at USD 3.11 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 4.10 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.68% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

COVID-19 had a substantial impact on the market for orthopedic bone cement and casting materials. Because of the lockdown situation, there were limitations on mobility and a decline in the number of orthopedic procedures performed globally. Furthermore, during the initial days of the pandemic, the number of road accidents also decreased across the globe. For instance, as per the study published in March 2022, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute research showed that the number of traffic accidents fell by almost half during the two months at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, when residents of most states were forced to stay at home in the United States. It was also reported that traffic accidents in Louisiana decreased by 47.0%, injuries due to traffic accidents decreased by 46.0%, and ambulance calls for accidents decreased by 41.0% between March and May 2020. However, the post-COVID-19 situation is likely to have huge growth as pending procedures will increase the surgical volume. and the worldwide restrictions have eased.

The growing burden of orthopedic disorders and the growing incidence of trauma and accident cases are contributing to a rise in the number of orthopedic procedures globally. In addition, the rising aging population is expected to increase the procedural count, driving market growth.

According to the statistics of the Arthritis Foundation, in 2021, more than 350 million people worldwide will have arthritis. In 2020, an estimated 30.8 million adults were found to be suffering from arthritis, and 14 million individuals in the United States were observed to be suffering from symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. By 2050, the number of adults in the United States with doctor-diagnosed osteoarthritis is projected to increase by 49% to 78.4 million. The same source as above has stated that the number of adults reporting activity limitations due to arthritis will increase by 52%, to 34.6 million by 2040. With the increasing number of orthopedic diseases, for instance, arthritis can cause spinal fractures requiring the use of bone cement, thereby driving demand and hence leading to market growth. Moreover, the use of bone cement is believed to increase for surgical purposes, which is expected to augment market growth over the forecast period.

Other factors, such as an increasing geriatric population and several orthopedic injuries, are also expected to drive the orthopedic bone cement and casting material market over the forecast period. According to the World Population Prospects 2022 report, the percentage of the population aged 65 years and over in Sub-Saharan Africa is 3.0 in 2022 and projected to be 3.3 in 2030; in Northern Africa and Western Asia, it is estimated to be 5.5 in 2022 and projected to be 7.0 in 2030; in Central and Southern Asia, it is estimated to be 6.4 in 2022 and projected to be 8.1 in 2030; and in Europe and Northern America, it is 18.7 in 2022 and projected to be 22.0 in 2030. Since the geriatric population is more prone to orthopedic injuries, which require bone cement and casting materials in order to support and strengthen prosthetic joints and broken bones, the growing geriatric population is driving the growth of the market.

Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors, it is anticipated that the studied market will witness growth over the analysis period. However, the high cost of surgeries and side effects of bone cement are likely to impede market growth.

Orthopedic Bone Cement Industry Segmentation

As per the scope of the report, bone cement can be defined as biomaterials obtained by mixing a powder phase and a liquid phase, which can be molded and implanted as a paste and can be implanted within the body. Orthopedic bone cement helps to support and strengthen prosthetic joints and broken bones. The orthopedic bone cement and casting material market is segmented by material (Polymethyl Methacrylate, or PMMA), ceramic, acrylic, and other materials, and geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, and South America). The market report also covers the estimated market sizes and trends for 17 different countries across major regions globally. The report offers the value (in USD million) for the above segments.
