A skin grafting system is a medical device designed for the removal and application of skin grafts to treat wounds, burns, or other skin defects. This system generally includes tools for harvesting thin layers of skin from donor sites and devices for applying and securing the graft to the recipient area. Its main purpose is to enable the transplantation of healthy skin to damaged areas, aiding in healing and restoring the skin's appearance and function.
The primary components of skin grafting systems include dermatomes, wound debridement devices, skin graft mesher equipment, and various accessories. These systems can be used for both autografts (grafts from the same individual) and allografts (grafts from a donor), and are applied to different types of wounds, such as burns, chronic wounds, surgical wounds, and traumatic wounds. They are utilized by a range of end users, including ambulatory surgical centers, hospitals, and specialty clinics.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The skin grafting systems market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides skin grafting systems market statistics, including skin grafting systems industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a skin grafting systems market share, detailed skin grafting systems market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the skin grafting systems industry. This skin grafting systems market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The skin grafting system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.07 billion in 2024 to $1.14 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing demand for aesthetic surgeries, aging population, regulatory support and standards, increasing medical tourism and healthcare infrastructure, emerging markets expansion.
The skin grafting system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.52 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to personalized medicine approaches, focus on minimally invasive techniques, rising telemedicine and remote consultations, environmental and sustainability initiatives, rising incidence of burns and trauma. Major trends in the forecast period include development of 3D bio printed skin grafts, smart dressings and wound monitoring, demand for regenerative medicine solutions, demand for patient-centric design, robotic surgical assistance.
The forecast of 7.4% growth over the next five years indicates a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through higher costs for dermatome blades and biocompatible adhesive matrices, predominantly supplied by Switzerland and Sweden, impacting burn treatment and reconstructive surgery.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The increasing prevalence of burn injuries is anticipated to drive the growth of the skin grafting system market. Burn injuries, which involve damage to the skin or deeper tissues from heat, chemicals, electricity, sunlight, or radiation, are becoming more common due to factors such as residential fires, industrial accidents, chemical exposures, electrical incidents, and natural disasters. Advances in skin grafting systems are improving burn treatment by enabling precise grafting procedures, which enhances wound healing and patient outcomes in burn care facilities. For example, a report from the American Burn Association in November 2023 noted that there were 30,135 burn cases in 2022, contributing to a total of 152,312 cases over five years. Flame or flash incidents accounted for 40% of these cases, with over 90% being accidental, marking a significant increase from the previous year. As a result, the growing number of burn injuries is fueling the demand for skin grafting systems.
Leading companies in the skin grafting system market are advancing their technologies by developing innovative solutions such as tri-layer skin grafts to enhance wound healing, improve graft integration, and reduce complications compared to traditional methods. A tri-layer skin graft involves transplanting three layers of skin-the epidermis, dermis, and an additional deeper layer of tissue-to provide better structural support and healing for complex wounds. For instance, in July 2022, Tides Medical, a US-based manufacturer of amniotic tissue products, introduced the Artacent AC tri-layer skin graft. Designed for treating complex wounds, the Artacent AC graft is three times stronger and twice as thick as traditional dual-layer grafts, making it easier to handle and apply to wound sites.
In August 2023, Coloplast A/S, a Denmark-based medical device manufacturer, acquired Kerecis for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to enhance Coloplast's wound care offerings by incorporating Kerecis' innovative biologic wound care technology, which uses intact fish skin. The goal is to provide advanced wound treatment solutions, drive long-term growth, and expand Coloplast's presence in the biologics segment, particularly in the US market. The acquisition is expected to leverage Kerecis' strong commercial presence and clinical evidence to benefit more patients and create significant value for Coloplast. Kerecis is an Iceland-based manufacturer of fish skin-based therapeutic grafting products.
