/EINPresswire.com/ -- VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - February 23, 2017) - In a recent article by iData Research Inc. (www.idataresearch.com), a global medical market research firm, on the U.S. market for orthopedic biomaterials, leading competitors are diversifying their product portfolios in order to penetrate higher growth segments. These markets include cellular allografts, cell therapy, synthetic bone graft substitutes and the single-injection hyaluronic acid markets. Competitors in low growth or declining segments are looking outside their traditional space by expanding into other existing segments. For example, Bioventus, the leader in the five-injection hyaluronic acid market, has shifted its focus towards the fast growing single- and triple-injection treatment products. Bioventus is achieving this through securing exclusive U.S. distribution rights for IBSA's three-injection Gelsyn-3™, as well as trying to secure premarket approval for its existing single-injection product, Durolane®, in the United States.

In the article, iData Senior Partner and CEO, Kamran Zamanian states: "The synergies between the traditional bone graft substitute materials such as demineralized bone matrix (DBM) and allografts provide a platform for companies that operate within those markets to pursue growth by expanding into the cellular allograft market to complement their product portfolio. As new competitors enter the market, prices should decline, which will aid in greater adoption and, in turn, fuel the number of procedures using cellular allografts."

The competitive landscape in the U.S. orthopedic biomaterials market has not significantly changed in terms of rankings, but the strategies of individual companies have. In particular, the leading competitors have aligned with consumer and physician demand to emphasize convenience over price. Treatments that speed up recovery are central to the future of the orthopedic biomaterials market and the high cost of development provides a barrier to entry for new competitors. Nevertheless, continued innovation and development of such products is the key for future growth.
