Dextran Market, Global Outlook and Forecast 2025-2032

In Business Insights
August 26, 2025


The global Dextran market continues to demonstrate substantial growth potential, with its valuation reaching US$ 224 million in 2024. According to the latest industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5%, reaching approximately US$ 346 million by 2032. This expansion is primarily driven by increasing applications in pharmaceutical formulations and medical solutions, particularly in developing economies where healthcare infrastructure continues to improve.

Dextran, a non-ionic branched polysaccharide derived from sucrose fermentation, has become increasingly vital in medical and industrial applications. Its biocompatibility and molecular weight versatility make it particularly valuable for pharmaceutical formulations and as a plasma volume expander. As regulatory approvals for medical-grade dextran expand globally, manufacturers are investing heavily in production capacity and product innovation.
