Medical Gloves Market – Segmentation

  • By material, the global medical nitrile gloves market dominates with 54.59% of the market share and is primarily due to its increased usage in medical applications. Nitrile glove offers a key advantage over latex as some people suffer from latex sensitivity, resulting in latex allergy and other skin problems.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic increased the demand for the examination glove a hundred times more than the normal demand in the industry at about 82.32%. A lot of surgeries were also delayed, and this caused slow growth in the surgical gloves market.
  • The hospital's segment accounted for more than half of the shares because hospitals are the primary contact for people's health issues. In addition, hospitals are the preferred place to undergo surgeries as they are equipped with the required technology, and skilled professionals handle complex cases.

Medical Gloves Market – Dynamics

Many manufacturers are moving quickly away from the powdered gloves to powder-free gloves, low protein latex gloves or synthetic gloves. Latex is causing potentially severe allergic reactions in healthcare workers and patients, so many patients are shifting from latex to alternative sources, which has dramatically reduced allergic reactions in surgical gloves. Most healthcare providers still experience allergic reactions on hands and wrists, primarily from irritant contact dermatitis, a non-immunologic response to an irritant or skin damage. Vendors have come up with solutions to reduce latex allergies by lowering the protein content in gloves which helps reduce both patient complications associated with powdered gloves and the incidence of asthma and latex allergy in health care providers. New powder-free gloves have been leached to protein levels less than 50μg/g the level of sensitization is above 100μg/g.

Key Drivers and Trends fueling Market Growth:

  • Introduction of Biodegradable Gloves
  • Growing Demand for Non-Medical Powdered Gloves
  • Increasing Number of Surgeries
  • Availability of Innovative Medical Gloves

Medical Gloves Market – Geography

In 2020, North America accounted for 34.34% of the global medical glove market. The number of surgeries performed in North America is increasing due to the developed healthcare infrastructure and proportionate rise in the geriatric population, demanding many surgeries. This has drastically increased the patient pool, requiring effective treatment and surgical procedures. This is expected to propel market growth. In addition, benefits such as no cut or incision on body parts, less or no blood loss, enhanced patient care, and overall improved patient experience associated with non-invasive surgical procedures are expected to further spur the market growth over the next few years. Moreover, the chances of HAIs are minimal with these surgeries. This has increased the demand for non-invasive surgical procedures. Furthermore, technological advances such as robotic assistance during surgery help physicians handle complex surgeries and reduce risks and increase success rates.
