The global Dialysis Concentrates Market is anticipated to reach a value of over US$ 4.75 billion during the forecast period of 2025 to 2033, with a CAGR of over 5.6%.
Dialysis concentrates are fluids that consist of purified water, glucose, and electrolytes, used to replace lost fluids or for patients with impaired kidney function. The concentration of electrolytes is identical to that which occurs naturally in the blood. Dialysis fluid is prepared according to the individual patient’s needs to help regulate their electrolyte and acid-base balance, as well as remove metabolic waste products. There exist two types of hemodialysis. It’s in the form of bicarbonate and acid. Water is blended with bicarbonate concentrates and acid concentrates to form the dialysis fluid (dialysate). Hemodialysate is the fluid that moves through the dialyzer. After blending the acid concentrate, water, and bicarbonate concentrate, the final dialysate consists of two or more buffer particles, depending on the acid concentrate used.
According to the National Kidney Foundation, about 10% of the world population is affected by chronic kidney disease, and over 2 million people receive dialysis every year. Out of this 2 million, 80% of the procedure is conducted in the US, Germany, Japan, Brazil, and Italy, and the rest of the world accounts for 20% of the procedural volume. Due to this, there is a significant demand for dialysis in middle-income countries. Furthermore, the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disorders has led to robust market growth. This is further augmented by the growing demand for dialysis, which facilitates the effective management of kidney disorders, thereby boosting adoption among end-users. According to WHO, 2.6 million people received dialysis globally in 2010, and it is estimated that the number will double by 2030. The increasing financial burden led to the development of effective treatment strategies focused on better management. Dialysis is one such effective method for managing the disease compared to alternative treatment strategies. However, in Haemodialysis Dialysis Concentrates, there have been numerous cases of product recalls, which are hindering the market's growth. The government's strict regulations are also hindering the market's growth.
The global market is dominated by the US, Germany, Japan, Brazil, and Italy. The US is a vast stakeholder in North America due to the high adoption of dialysis. North America is a major stakeholder in the global market, followed closely by Europe. Europe is dominated by Germany, Italy, UK, and France due to high prevalence. Furthermore, changing economic conditions in the Asia Pacific are expected to drive market growth. It is majorly dominated by Japan, China and India due to a large number of the patient population. Latin America and the Rest of the World is a fast-growing region in the global market due to the increasing penetration of dialysis in the end-user segment.
