U.S. Compression Tape Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Indication (Sports Injuries, Post-operative Edema, Lymphedema), By Compression Class (Class 1, Class 2), And Segment Forecasts, 2025 - 2033
U.S. Compression Tape Market Summary
The U.S. compression tape market size was estimated at USD 33.65 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 46.18 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 3.61% from 2025 to 2033. The market is expanding as healthcare providers increase the use of compression solutions for injury management, post-operative care, and swelling control.
Growing participation in sports and fitness is driving higher demand for preventive and recovery-focused taping. Hospitals, outpatient centers, and home-care settings are adopting compression products to support faster mobilization and reduce secondary complications. Broader access through retail and e-commerce channels is further supporting volume growth across user groups.
The U.S. compression tape industry continues to expand, driven by growing use of adhesive and wrap-style products for localized compression. Demand is supported by rising incidence of venous and lymphatic conditions such as chronic venous insufficiency, deep-vein thrombosis, post-thrombotic syndromes, and lymphedema. Increasing surgical volumes, obesity, and inactive lifestyles further contribute to utilization, with compression tapes used across hospital, outpatient, and home-care settings for swelling management, stabilization, and post-procedure support.
Sports participation and injury incidence form another driver of demand. Compression tapes are applied directly on skin or over dressings to support muscles, tendons, joints, manage swelling, and assist circulation during activity or recovery. The high volume of injuries among children and adolescents in organized sports increases consumption in athletic and physiotherapy channels. Tapes provide flexible support without restricting full movement, making them suitable for rehabilitation and repeated-use scenarios.
The market also benefits from their role in post-operative care. Protocols in hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers integrate compression for swelling management and complication reduction. Growth in home-care and direct-to-consumer channels supports wider use of tape formats that are low-cost, easy to apply, and adaptable to varied limb shapes. Trends include custom-fit wrap options, improved textile systems to support patient use, and adhesive formats designed for extended wear. Manufacturers respond with tape-wrap hybrids, multi-day adhesive products, and early integration of monitoring features.
The increasing prevalence of chronic venous disorders, including chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and venous leg ulcers-is a key driver of the compression therapy market. Factors such as sedentary lifestyles, obesity, aging populations, and prolonged periods of standing or sitting at work are significantly contributing to the growing global burden of these conditions.
According to data published by the Society for Vascular Surgery in July 2025, chronic venous insufficiency affects up to 40% of Americans. Similarly, data from WebMD LLC published in July 2025 indicate that in the U.S., more than 11 million men and 22 million women aged 40-80 years suffer from varicose veins, while over 2 million individuals are affected by advanced CVI. Each year, more than 20,000 people are diagnosed with ulcers resulting from CVI.
