Analyst Viewpoint
Rise in prevalence of venous stasis ulcers is a primary factor fostering global Unna boot market development.
Unna boot provides sustained and therapeutic compression to the lower leg, which, in turn, helps in reducing swelling, improving venous circulation, and promoting healing of the venous ulcers.
Increase in athletic and sports activities across the globe has resulted in a rise in sports-related injuries and accidents, thus augmenting the Unna boot market revenue.
Unna boot industry manufacturers are introducing gelatin free boots that do away with the requirement of preservatives, thereby reducing the likelihood of adverse skin reactions.
Leading players are observing the latest Unna boot market trends and coming up with specially designed compression dressings that combine the benefits of static semi-rigid compression with a formulation that incorporates both zinc and calamine to support a moist environment conducive to healing.
Unna boot is a gauze trap that is soaked in the zinc oxide paste. Zinc oxide impregnated Unna boot benefits include easing of skin irritation and retaining of moisture.
Unna boot is placed on the leg from base of toes to just below the knee. The paste is covered with dry gauze wrap and then with an ace bandage. This wrap dries after a few hours of application. The multi-layer compression system helps in reducing swelling.
Advantages of Unna boot include protection of the limb from external trauma. Unna boot can be used for seven days and then replaced. Currently, demand for Unna boot with calamine for skin protection is high. It may also contain castor oil, glycerin, acacia, and white petrolatum.
However, Unna boot is not recommended for individuals suffering from mixed or arterial ulcers, erythema, and intense inflammation in the ulceration area. Those suffering from uncontrolled diabetes mellitus should also not opt for Unna boot, as it may culminate into loss of sensitivity, thereby resulting in a new lesion in the diabetic foot.

Market Drivers |
|
Obesity, older age, deep venous thrombosis, leg injuries, and phlebitis are some of the risk factors associated with the development of venous stasis ulcer. Venous ulcers are usually shallow, irregular, and located around bony prominences.
Primary causes of venous ulcers include endothelial damage, leukocyte activation, intracellular edema, and platelet aggregation.
Venous ulcers fall in the category of recurrent ailments, and an open ulcer is likely to persist for several weeks to numerous years if left untreated. Severe complications could result in osteomyelitis, cellulitis, and malignant change.
As per American Family Physician (AFP) journal, 1% of the U.S. population suffers from venous stasis ulcers. The refractory nature of these ulcers may increase risk mortality and morbidity.
The AFP further states that monetary burden of these ulcers alone is nearly US$ 2.0 Bn in the U.S.
Thus, there exists a need to proactively treat venous ulcers. Increase in usage of Unna boot in treatment of these ulcers is fueling Unna boot market growth.
As per a new study conducted by the Ipsos and the World Economic Forum, 58% of the global population is showing inclination toward sports activities. Various developing economies are also increasingly training youngsters for international sports events.
This growth in sports-related activities is resulting in various injuries and accidents. Lower leg injuries or ankle sprains are common among such injuries and accidents. The incidence of tearing of ligament or bone fracture is also rising.
Unna boot fosters regeneration of tissues and healing, as it acts as a supportive bandage for strains and sprains of the lower leg, ankle, and foot.
Feet and legs may also get affected by edema, which causes swelling and puffiness in the legs, ankles, and feet. Unna boot serves as an elastic bandage for edema. Unlike cast, Unna foot allows for unrestricted motion of the ankle joint.
Thus, growth in sports-related injuries is creating lucrative Unna boot market opportunities for companies operating in the global landscape.

Leading Region | North America |
As per the latest Unna boot market analysis, North America accounted for the largest share of the global landscape in 2022. The region is projected to maintain its dominant position during the forecast period.
Significant market expansion in North America can be ascribed to the rise in incidence of refractive venous stasis ulcers in the U.S. Availability of advanced healthcare infrastructure and supportive government policies are also augmenting the industry in the region.
Europe also holds key Unna boot market share, with countries such as Romania, France, Poland, Greece, Italy, Germany, and the U.K. being at the forefront in athletics, team sports, and gymnastics.
On the other hand, Asia Pacific is likely to record substantial market progress during the forecast period. The industry in the region is led by China, which is a frontrunner in individual sports activities.
Companies operating in the global Unna boot market are launching new and innovative products that promote user comfort and therapy effectiveness. They are formulating Unna boots with non-hardening zinc oxide paste, which allows the bandage to remain flexible, thus encouraging patient ambulation and compliance.
The Unna boot market report scope covers leading players such as Medline Industries, Inc., American Medicals, Cardinal Health, BSN Medical, ConvaTec, Inc., Andover Healthcare, Inc., GF Healthcare Products, Inc., and DERMA SCIENCES.
