Cold Plasma Market Size

The global cold plasma market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.15% over the forecast period to reach a total market size of US$7.020 billion by 2030, increasing from US$3.785 billion in 2025.

In recent years, cold plasma technology has found extensive application in the material processing industry and is now widely used in the manufacturing of semiconductors, special glasses, and even magnetic media and metal coating. Innovations in textile production techniques coupled with the growing investment in research and development are expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. However, high capital investment is anticipated to restrain the market’s growth opportunities in the coming years.

Cold Plasma Market Growth Drivers:

• Growing utilization in the textile industry. 

The textile industry today is moving towards innovative production techniques to improve product quality and meet environmental and social objectives. Plasma treatment has certain advantages as it can modify the surface properties of materials with an environmentally-friendly device. For the treatment of fabrics, cold plasma is used mostly where the ambient treatment atmosphere is near room temperature. Plasma is a partially ionized gas, composed of highly excited atomic, molecular, ionic, and radical species with free electrons and photons. 

The textile industry in India gains a pivotal role in knitting the tapestry of dynamism and growth of the sector with about 4.5% share in the global textile and apparel trade. With a diverse range of fabric and intrinsic craftsmanship, the handicrafts and handloom sector offers a great deal of opportunities wherein the products are exported to more than 100 countries.

Some of the most common plasma techniques that are used to treat textile substrates are Glow Discharge, Atmospheric Pressure Plasma, and Dielectric-Barrier Discharge (DBD), among others. In addition, expanding the textile industry in developing countries like India and China, coupled with favorable government initiatives, is expected to drive the market's growth over the forecast period. For instance, recently, the Clothing Manufacturers Association of India (CMAI) signed a memorandum of understanding with the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Textiles (CCCT) to explore the area of operation for increasing exports from India.

• Rising application in healthcare. 

Recently, the ability of cold atmospheric plasma to inactivate bacteria has gained more relevance as modern society is facing many serious healthcare challenges.  One chronic wound like a diabetic ulcer does not heal easily, and one of the problems is the high level of infection caused by a spectrum of bacteria. The inability of conventional forms to solve these problems leads to the growing demand for new approaches and technologies such as cold atmospheric plasma, which has been shown to effectively inactivate bacteria and greatly reduce the burden in infected chronic wounds, making it an attractive technology to overcome such challenges. 

About 900,000 people in Germany suffer from chronic and poorly healing wounds. Diabetics or patients with wound healing disorders are especially affected. Cold plasma therapy can be used to sustainably improve wound healing and the quality of life of these patients. The method is already applied in many practices and clinics, but it is not yet a standard treatment by health insurance companies.

Furthermore, cold plasma allows effective medical treatment of chronic diseases such as cancer and various skin injuries and diseases, like wounds, bacterial infections, and fungoid infections, among others. Besides, the increasing application, of cold plasma in cancer treatment, wound healing, and infective diseases is augmenting the growth of the market in the coming years.

• Various strategies are incorporated by key market players. 

Prominent key market players in the cold plasma market include Nestlé SA, Unilever Plc., CCL Products, Kraft Heinz Company, Luigi Lavazza SpA., and Strauss Group Limited. The number of players in the Cold plasma market is large and growing, with the opportunity to generate significant revenues as a result of growing demand. The players in the global cold plasma market are implementing various growth strategies to gain a competitive advantage over their competitors in this market. Key players in this market are focusing on strategic acquisitions, collaborative partnerships, and innovation as a part of their growth strategies to provide better products with new flavors to their consumers worldwide. For instance, Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC) and Instanta Sp. z o.o. (Instanta) launched ILD Coffee Vietnam, a joint venture freeze-dried cold plasma facility located in Binh Duong province, Vietnam, with an annual production capacity of 5,600 metric tons of freeze-dried cold plasma in September 2023.

Cold Plasma Market Geographical Outlook:

• The cold plasma market is segmented into five regions worldwide

The global cold plasma market is segmented into five regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. North America and Europe are projected to show significant market share due to the early adopters of technology and innovations, thus contributing to generating high revenues. 

On the other hand, the Asia Pacific region is estimated to show high growth prospects with growth in the electronics and semiconductor industry. In addition, due to rising household expenditure, there is an increasing demand for consumer goods which attracts market players to invest in the country to cater to the growing consumer base which is further expected to propel the market growth opportunities for manufacturers and vendors in the coming years. Also, the region is the home of countries like China and Japan, where China is considered one of the biggest manufacturing hubs in the world, and Japan which is one of the most advanced economies in the world and is the world’s third-biggest pharmaceuticals market. The growing geriatric population coupled with the increasing investment in the pharmaceutical industry is expected to propel the market growth opportunities for manufacturers and vendors over the forecast period.

Cold Plasma Market Key Developments: 

• In November 2024, Medical technology pioneer Neoplas Med GmbH, based in Greifswald, is strengthening its strategic cooperation with Niterra Ventures Company through a $18M capital increase to expand the market further for innovative wound care technology products.
• In July 2024, a spin-out company for the University of Liverpool, Plasma Fresh, developed advanced technology capable of utilizing unique physicochemical properties of cold air plasma for improving current practices in sanitizing food processing lines.
• In April 2024, the company Neoplas Med GmbH, the top company in the area of cold plasma jet medical technology, is very pleased to announce that the new Plasmajet kINPen® MED has been endowed with the top, coveted MDR certificate for Europe.
