The global ostomy care and accessories market is set to witness a growth rate of 4-6% in the next 5 years. Rising incidence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and colorectal cancer; increasing geriatric population; technological advancements in ostomy care products; increasing awareness and acceptance of ostomy care; and growing healthcare expenditure and reimbursement policies are some of the key factors driving the ostomy care and accessories market.
Ostomy care involves the management and maintenance of a surgically created opening (stoma) in the abdomen that allows bodily waste to bypass damaged or diseased areas of the gastrointestinal or urinary systems. This care is essential for individuals with colostomies, ileostomies, or urostomies among others. Ostomy care products typically include ostomy pouches, skin barriers, and adhesives used by patients after surgeries like colostomies, ileostomies, or urostomies. Ostomy pouches collect waste from the stoma, and they are available in one-piece or two-piece systems. Skin barriers protect the skin around the stoma, preventing irritation and leaks, while adhesives secure the pouch in place. Accessories such as stoma powders, pastes, belts, and deodorizers enhance comfort and functionality by improving adhesion, preventing leaks, and reducing odor. These products are essential for maintaining hygiene, skin health, and quality of life for ostomy patients.

Rising incidence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and colorectal cancer to propel market demand
Globally, IBD accounted for 3.32 million estimated cases in 1990 and 4.90 million cases in 2019, corresponding to an increase of 47.45% between 1990 and 2019 (Source: NCBI). The rising incidence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, along with colorectal cancer, is driving demand for ostomy care products. These conditions often require surgeries such as colostomies or ileostomies, which create a need for ostomy pouches, skin barriers, and accessories. As more people undergo these procedures, the demand for advanced, comfortable, and discreet ostomy products increases. Additionally, the chronic nature of IBD leads to long-term use of ostomy care products, further boosting the market. The growing prevalence of these diseases, especially among aging populations, is a key factor in market expansion.
Technological advancements in ostomy care products are driving the market growth
Technological advancements in ostomy care products are driving market growth by improving product functionality, comfort, and convenience for patients. Innovations such as skin-friendly adhesives, leak-proof pouches, enhanced odor control, and more discreet designs are making ostomy products easier to use and more comfortable for daily wear. New developments in materials and barrier technologies also reduce skin irritation and improve adhesion, enhancing patient confidence and quality of life. Smart ostomy bags with sensors to monitor output and alert users about changes are another emerging trend, further boosting demand for advanced ostomy care products and accessories.
