External Urine Management Products Market Research, 2031
The global external urine management products market was valued at $15.9 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $31.9 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2022 to 2031. External urine management products are used for retention of urine. They include pads, bags, diapers, and urinary catheters.
External urine management products are commonly utilized in men and women who have urine incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine). The two most common bladder dysfunctions treated with pads and urinary catheters are urine incontinence (UI) and urinary retention (UR). They are mostly used in hospitals, diagnostic laboratories & clinics, and home care settings.
The rise in the prevalence of urological problems and the development of sophisticated urinary incontinence devices are driving the growth of the external urine management products market. Furthermore, an aging population is more prone to urological disorders, urinary retention, benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), and bladder cancer support. The number of individuals with urine incontinence and bladder cancer is projected to rise in the future. These factors drive the external urine management products market growth.
However, the external urine collection products market is hampered by a lack of awareness about recent advances in urinary incontinence devices as well as post-operative complications related to the products. Such factors are estimated to limit the external urine management products market growth during the forecast period.
An increase in prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI), as well as the need for efficient and long-term UI management options, helps to safeguard good hygiene.

The external urine management products market is segmented into Gender, Product Type, Product Category, Distribution Channel and End User.
On the basis of gender, the female segment dominated the market in 2021. The growth of this segment is due to women being more prone than men to experience stress incontinence. This variation is due to pregnancy, delivery, menopause, and typical female anatomy. Females are becoming more aware of incontinence and hygiene issues. Female acceptance of these devices has increased as a result of the emergence of specially developed products such as female external catheters, pads, and diapers. These reasons are causing an increase in both demand and supply of external urine management products. These are predicted to be the major factors that will affect the external urine management products market size during the forecast period.
On the basis of product type, the pads & diapers segment dominated the global external urine management products market share in 2021. The growing demand for pads and diapers is expected to drive the product type segment in external urine management products. Pads and diapers are highly absorbent and come in a variety of materials, including biodegradable options. Such features of pads and diapers are bound to create a scope of growth for the segment during the forecast period.
By Product Category
Non- Disposable is anticipated to grow at a fastest CAGR during the forecast period
On the basis of product category, the disposable segment dominated the market in 2021. The growing number of people suffering from diarrhoea, bowel diseases, and nerve damage that result in faecal incontinence contributes to the increase in usage of disposable products. Furthermore, the convenience of wear and disposal, as well as the affordability of various disposable incontinence products such as adult diapers and protective incontinence garments are driving the market expansion. These are predicted to be the major factors that will affect the external urine management products market size during the forecast period.
On the basis of distribution channel, the offline channel dominated the global external urine management products market share in 2021. Offline distribution channels provide product assurance, authenticity, and verification, and most customers continue to favour them. Retail stores are the first point of contact for firms looking to supply items and samples. All these factors are estimated to drive the market growth and product demand during the forecast period.
On the basis of end user, the hospitals segment dominated the global external urine management products market share in 2021. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the use of external urine management products for urinary incontinence in hospitals. Such applications of external urine management products in hospitals are bound to create a scope of growth for the segment during the forecast period. For instance, the U.S. Renal Data System 2020 Annual Data Report estimates that 7,86,000 Americans have end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), also known as end-stage renal disease (ESRD), with 71% requiring dialysis and 29% requiring a kidney transplant. The need to urinate increases while on treatment as a result of the destruction of the kidneys' filters due to renal disease. These factors are accounted to drive the external urine management products market.
On the basis of region, North America dominated the global market in 2021 due to the increase in the prevalence of physical and medical disorders that cause urine incontinence. The regional disposable incontinence products market is dominated by the U.S. and Canada, further increasing the growth of the market. The rise in geriatric population, an increase in the prevalence of urine incontinence, improved healthcare infrastructure, effective government legislation, and a high level of public knowledge about urinary dysfunction are expected to drive the market growth in North America. For instance, according to the National Association for Incontinence (NAFC), almost 200 million people in North America suffered from urine incontinence in 2021.

Analyst Review
A major reason for the high demand for external urine control devices is the ageing population. Certain changes in the lower urinary system occur as a result of ageing, such as prostate gland enlargement in older men. It also involves decreased bladder capacity and a sensation of fullness, decreased pelvic muscle resistance, a slower rate of lower esophageal sphincter muscle contraction, and an increase in excess urine output. This is expected to drive expansion of external urine management products. However, the growth of the external urine management products market is hampered by a lack of awareness about recent advances in urinary incontinence devices as well as post-operative complications related to the products. Such factors are estimated to limit the external urine management products market growth during the analysis period. The rise in prevalence of urological problems such as urine incontinence, prostatitis, prostate gland, and kidney disease, all of which cause bladder malfunction, is estimated to generate excellent opportunities in the external urine management products market .
Among the analyzed regions, North America is expected to account for the highest revenue in the market by 2031, followed by Asia-Pacific, Europe, and LAMEA. The increase in the prevalence of urinary diseases and kidney diseases is the key factor responsible for the leading position of North America and Asia-Pacific in the external urine management products market.
The rising geriatric population is one of the most pressing concerns confronting developing countries worldwide. The prevalence of chronic conditions in the elderly population, including peripheral artery disease, heart disease, and venous thromboembolism, is also expected to drive demand for external urine management products. In addition, the increase in the prevalence of urine incontinence in elderly women is estimated to generate excellent opportunities in the external urine management products market.
Asia-Pacific will provide more business opportunities for the global external urine management products market in the future.
