Market Overview:
The global medical gloves market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for medical gloves from various end-use industries, such as hospitals, clinics, and laboratories. In addition, the growing awareness about hygiene and safety among consumers is also propelling the growth of this market. The latex medical gloves segment is expected to dominate the global medical gloves market during the forecast period owing to its high durability and resistance against tears and punctures. However, nitrile rubber medical gloves are projected to grow at a higher CAGR than other segments during the forecast period due to their superior properties such as chemical resistance and better fit for people with sensitive skin.
Product Definition:
A glove (American English) or gloove (British English), is a garment covering the whole hand. Gloves have separate sheaths or openings for each finger and the thumb. Though now usually made of cloth, they were originally made of leather, felt, or straw.
Latex:
Latex is a type of rubber, derived from the leaves of the rubber tree. The latex that is produced commercially has two types, namely natural latex and synthetic latex. Synthetic variants are usually cheaper than natural variants; however, they have less tensile strength as compared to their natural counterparts.
Nitrile Rubber:
Nitrile rubber is a synthetic rubber, which was first developed in 1960s. Nitrile has replaced natural rubber (NR) in many applications owing to its superior properties such as high tensile strength and better resistance to heat, oil & chemicals. It also provides good abrasion resistance and has a longer shelf life than NR.
Application Insights:
Online and medical stores are the major application segments of the global market. In 2017, online held around 78.0% of the overall revenue share in this segment owing to increasing demand for gloves from various end-use industries such as healthcare, food processing and packaging, construction etc. Medical stores accounted for 22.0% share in 2017 due to high product penetration among medium/small scale clinics and hospitals where gloves are directly supplied by manufacturers or suppliers without any additional intermediaries involved in price negotiations or discounts offered by retailers on purchases above a certain volume level etc. Growing awareness about diseases is one of the key factors driving consumer behavior towards glove purchasing decisions especially during cold & flu season which has resulted in increased demand for these products across North America and Europe regions over recent years according to LivaNova¢â‚¬â„¢s annual tracking survey conducted among consumers aged 18 years+ across 20 countries including U.S.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The presence of sophisticated healthcare infrastructure, high awareness among people about personal hygiene and safety, and favorable reimbursement policies are some of the major factors driving regional growth. Moreover, increasing cases of chronic diseases such as diabetes is expected to boost product demand in this region.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period owing to rising medical tourism activities supported by low cost treatment options offered by countries such as India and China. In addition, growing awareness regarding disease transmission at workplace will drive regional demand for protective gloves during food handling procedures which would subsequently propel overall revenue generation over the next eight years or so. ‘’‰â€˜‰ ‘‰â€™… ▬▬' Double-layer barrier film provides a second line of defense against infection.
