Global Alginate Dressing Market is valued at approximately USD 868.75 million in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 3.8% over the forecast period 2022-2028.

Alginate dressings are made naturally from sources of carbohydrates produced by specific clinical bacterial species, much like biofilm formation. The optimal application for these sorts of dressings is on wounds with a lot of exudates. Lightweight nonwoven materials called alginate dressings are made from algae or seaweed. They are made for moderately to heavily exuding wounds and have mild hemostatic qualities, great absorbency, and the ability to remain on the wound bed for days. The upsurge in the prevalence of various chronic and acute wounds as well as increasing number of surgeries across the globe is favoring and driving the growth of the market. For instance, according to current projections in NCBI (2022), there would be between 9.1 million and 26.1 million diabetic foot ulcers worldwide each year.
