Sales of personal protective gowns increased at a high-value CAGR of 14.4% from 2017 to 2021 due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In hospitals, personal protective equipment is widely utilized for various purposes. To lower the risk of infection during the coronavirus pandemic, governments mandated the use of personal protective clothing. As a result, all medical professionals had to wear personal protective gowns, which generated high demand for protective gear in the healthcare sector.
Around 47 countries received PPE kits from WHO during the initial phase of the pandemic. Increasing demand for personal protective gowns due to the ongoing pandemic created huge opportunities for textile manufacturers to invest in the production of such protective gear.
Existing market players are expanding their regional supply chains for personal protective garments. New market players are anticipated to enter the global market for personal protective gear with innovative products, which can create a competitive environment in this market.
For instance,
The COVID-19 pandemic has, therefore, had a considerable impact on medical disposables, driving the sales of personal protective gowns to a great extent.
In a related manner, more general surgeries and procedures related to the cardiovascular system are now being performed globally. The number of cardiovascular operations and general operations is rising in Europe because of a rise in the number of diabetes and hypertension cases, lifestyle changes, etc. Over the past 25 years, the frequency of cardiovascular diseases that necessitate hospital admissions has increased in Europe and is anticipated to increase further, which is expected to boost sales of personal protective gowns.
Hospitalization rates of patients are rising because of the increasing number of burn injuries, auto accidents, and traumatic incidents worldwide. It is essential for doctors to use personal protective gowns during treatment; therefore, these considerations are also driving the demand for protective gowns.
The global market for personal protective gowns is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period (2022 to 2032).
