Research and Markets: Global Orthopedic Biomaterials Market 2015-2021 - Company Profiles, Share, Trends, Analysis, Opportunities, Segmentation and Forecasts

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d68fq4/global_orthopedic) has announced the addition of the "Global Orthopedic Biomaterials Market by Country (United States, Canada, India, China, Japan, United Kingdom), Company Profiles, Share, Trends, Analysis, Opportunities, Segmentation and Forecast 2015 - 2021" report to their offering.

Orthopaedic biomaterials market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11% for the forecasted period of 2015-2021

The market is segmented on the basis of products, application and biomaterials type. The biomaterials type includes metals and non-metals. Metals include stainless steel, titanium and cobalt alloys; non metals include ceramics, polymers and composites. Application of biomaterials includes orthobiologics, joint replacements, viscosupplementation and others. Products include bone allografts, aligned bone matrix, machined bones, bone morphogenetic protein, synthetic bone substitute and others.

The market is driven by high expenditure in the research and development field. New biomaterials are being developed which are more compatible to human body. One of the major issues faced by manufacturers, physicians and patients alike is the biocompaibility of the products. Manufacturers are working on various new biomaterials and developing tissue reengineering techniques. Polymer based biodegradable biomaterials are being produced at a higher volume such as polyglycolic acid and polylactic acids. These polymers can easily be placed, as the implants are removed the callus strength increases. The hardware removal is not necessary therefore reducing the cost. High prevalence of age related lifestyle diseases and increasing number of elderly population is also driving the market.

The market is highly competitive and consists of some major player such as Genzyme Corporation, Carpenter Technology Corporation, and Materion Corporation. Ulbrich Stainless Steel & Special Metals, Inc., Heraeus Medical Components, CeramTec (a subsidiary of Rockwood Holdings Inc.), Ceradyne, Inc., Kyocera (News - Alert) Corporation, Bayer, Purac Biomaterials and others.
