Medical Nonwoven Disposables Market Research, 2030

The global medical nonwoven disposables market size was valued at $18,922.86 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $18,659.57 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 3.9%. This market growth is attributed to rapid developments in nonwovens production technology. Growth in focus toward preventing hospital acquired infections (HAIs) help drive the medical nonwoven disposables market growth. HAIs are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients today. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. accounts for approximately 1.7 million HAIs and 99,000 deaths annually. Furthermore, HAIs are now the fifth leading cause of death in the U.S. acute care hospitals. However, surgical nonwoven products possess significant efficiency in prevention of HAIs. In addition, surgical nonwovens encompass everything from surgical drapes & gowns to wound care dressings and adult incontinence items. Thus, all these factors together significantly fuel the growth of the market in the upcoming years.

Nonwoven products are the typical class of textile materials designed from fibers that are bonded together to form a lucid structure. Medical nonwovens are either made up of natural fiber-like cotton, linen, or of synthetic materials such as polypropylene, polyester, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and others. The medical nonwoven disposables are commonly used in surgical processes, serving as a barrier to microorganisms and prevents from fluid, particulate, and microorganism that can lead to cross contamination. They are used in the form of composite and are sterile, soft, antibacterial, liquid repellent as well as liquid absorbent. These include products like disposable underwear, cotton pads, panty shields, disposable diapers, ultra-absorbent, super-absorbent, and biodegradable products. 

Moreover, improvement in healthcare infrastructure and services across the developing countries serve a great help to boost the medical nonwoven disposables market growth. In addition, surge in disposable income, rise in health awareness, and significant increase in geriatric population supplement the market growth. Moreover, the key players of nonwoven disposables are continuously involved in developing innovative medical disposable products such as DuPont’s Tyvek coveralls, Dynarex surgical mask with face shield, 3M N95 particulate mask, and McKesson surgical gloves that further contribute toward the medical nonwoven disposables market growth.

Analyst Review

Nonwoven disposables are products made up of flat, porous sheets that are made directly or from molten plastic or plastic film. They do not need weaving or knitting and do not require converting the fibers to yarn. They possess the properties like liquid repellency, flame retardancy, softness, sterility, and strength. They are gaining popularity due to their usability and cost effectiveness. They provide protection from infection for the patients and healthcare professionals. They also provide protection from particulate, fluid, and microorganism reducing the chances of cross infection. On the other hand, growth in focus toward preventing hospital acquired infections (HAIs), rapid developments in nonwovens production technology, and improvement in healthcare infrastructure and services across developing countries are expected to propel the growth of the medical nonwoven disposables market during the forecast period. However, threat of substitutes such as woven products and the increase in popularity of less-invasive surgeries are expected to hinder the growth of the market. The sterile nonwoven products segment is expected to contribute major share toward the market growth, owing to rapid developments in the nonwoven disposables products owing to increased usage.

The use of medical nonwoven disposables is highest in North America, owing to rise in health awareness among population, and availability of technologically advanced products. Although the use of nonwoven disposables in Europe and LAMEA is low, the adoption rate is expected to increase due to rise in increase in geriatric population and the launch of new and advanced products in the regions.
