    Growth Surge in Disposable Medical Gloves Market Amid Hygiene Focus

    The worldwide demand for personal protective equipment (PPE) is exploding. Disposable medical gloves that started experiencing a sudden spike in demand amid COVID-19 pandemic are projected for a prosperous growth outlook in the global market over the foreseeable future. Fairfield Market Research’s ongoing study discusses the growth dynamics of global disposable medical gloves market during 2021 – 2025.

    On the other hand, an increasing number of surgeries in orthopedic, ophthalmic, and dental healthcare sectors will continue to fuel the sales of disposable gloves across public and private facilities. Rising penetration of synthetic medical gloves has also augured well for the market growth. Although the pandemic situation continues to stimulate mass adoption, competitive price point and environmental footprint of disposable gloves will be the challenging factors in long term, says the report.

    Nitrile Gloves to Gain Strong Ground

    Examination gloves are likely to remain top selling but surgical gloves are expected to reign supreme in terms of market value. Hospitals will remain the significant consumer segment, whereas vinyl and polyisoprene gloves are likely to remain sought-after. Cost-competitive, safer, and more durable alternatives such as nitrile gloves are also emerging popular, especially across developing regional markets. Moreover, cost efficiency, broader adoption, and eco-friendly attributes of latex make it the most preferred material among manufacturers of disposable medical gloves.

    Innovations Make Headways in Powder-free Disposable Medical Gloves 

    Selection of appropriate protective gloves plays a critical role when it comes to prevention of infectious and transmissible diseases. While powdered gloves have been associated with certain serious health risks such as latex skin allergy and contamination, the market has been witnessing strong consumer shift away from powdered gloves. Since 2016, the US Food and Drug Association (FDA) has banned powdered surgical and patient examination gloves as well as the lubricating absorbing powder. Companies are thus augmenting their investments in introducing powder-free glove variants that relatively skin-friendly due to low chemical and endotoxin content. The global disposable medical gloves market is also likely to see emergence of antibacterial gloves with higher moisturiser content that facilitate the pull-on. Textured disposable medical gloves is another trend popularising in the global market.
