Medical Adhesives Tape Market Segmentation:
Backing Material Segment Analysis
The fabric segment is estimated to gain the largest share of 40% in the medical adhesives tape market throughout the analyzed timeframe. The segment’s leadership is majorly attributed to the higher flexibility, elasticity, and availability of fabric as a backing material. Moreover, having greater strength than paper and plastic makes it the most durable and desired component for various applications, such as sport burns, healing fractures, ligament tears, and other intricate surgeries. For instance, in August 2024, KT launched KT Turf Tape, made of a premium synthetic fabric, to offer burn protection, pain relief, and muscle support for football players. Furthermore, the affordability of this type of tapes are also a significant factor in making this segment the highest revenue generating asset for this field.
