In 2023, GlobalData’s Market Model methodology determined that the leading player in the superabsorbents market in South Africa was Molnlycke Health Care followed by Smith & Nephew, Lohmann & Rauscher International, Paul Hartmann, 3M, Coloplast, ConvaTec Group, Hollister and BSN Medical.
The high absorption capacity reduces the risk of leakage and minimizes the risk of maceration around the wound. The Superabsorbent pad may be made of either foam, cellulose or hydropolymer. These dressings are majorly used for the treatment of chronic leg ulcers and chronic pressure ulcers where they provide a moist and active environment for optimum healing. This includes Antimicrobial Superabsorbents and Non-Antimicrobial Superabsorbents. Antimicrobial Superabsorbents are impregnated with an antimicrobial agent that inhibits microbial growth. Non-Antimicrobial Superabsorbents are devoid of antimicrobial activity due to absence of antimicrobial agents.
The value of the superabsorbents devices market within South Africa was expected to be over $1m in 2023.
