세계의 합성 장갑 시장 : 예측(2023-2028년)

The synthetic gloves market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15.17% from US$8,034.895 million in 2021 to US$21,601.402 million by 2028.

The synthetic gloves market has witnessed substantial growth in recent years, driven by a confluence of factors that have reshaped the dynamics of the global healthcare and industrial sectors. One of the primary drivers behind this growth is the increasing awareness of hygiene and safety standards across various industries, especially in healthcare, food processing, and manufacturing. As stringent regulations governing workplace safety become more prevalent, the demand for synthetic gloves, which offer a reliable and cost-effective alternative to traditional latex gloves, has surged.

Increasing advancement in glove manufacturing technology

The market has also benefited from advancements in glove manufacturing technology, leading to the development of high-performance synthetic materials that offer enhanced comfort and performance. Additionally, the eco-friendly credentials of certain synthetic gloves, as compared to traditional latex gloves, have resonated with environmentally conscious consumers and businesses. Key developments in the market are playing a major role in driving market growth. For instance, in 2020, Hartalega Holdings Berhad revealed its strategic move and acquired additional land of 60.57 acres for RM158.31 mil, in Sepang, Malaysia, to expand its glove production facilities. This decision comes in response to the unprecedented surge in demand for hand protection, primarily driven by the ongoing challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The acquisition is positioned as a crucial step for Hartalega, enabling the company to systematically enhance its production capacity to meet the escalating global demand for gloves.

Rising awareness of hygiene and safety standards in the healthcare industry

The surging demand for synthetic gloves in the healthcare industry is intricately tied to the escalating awareness of hygiene and safety standards. As the healthcare sector places an ever-greater emphasis on infection control and patient and staff safety, the need for reliable and effective personal protective equipment (PPE) has become paramount. Synthetic gloves, crafted from materials such as nitrile or vinyl, have emerged as a linchpin in this paradigm shift, offering a hygienic and hypoallergenic alternative to traditional latex gloves.

The Indian Medtech Industry according to the data presented by Invest India is expanding at a rapid rate which is further driving the growth of the synthetic gloves market. Furthermore, India ranks 10th in the Medical Tourism Index (MTI) for 2020-2021 out of 46 destinations in the world. Foreign Tourist Arrivals for medical purposes increased from 1.83 lakh in 2020 to 3.04 lakh in 2021 which is another imperative factor calling out the demand for synthetic gloves.

The increasing prevalence of stringent regulations and guidelines governing hygiene in healthcare settings, compounded by the imperative to combat the spread of infectious diseases like COVID-19, has catalyzed a significant uptick in the adoption of synthetic gloves. These gloves provide a crucial barrier against pathogens, ensuring that healthcare professionals can perform their duties with reduced risk of contamination.

It is projected that the synthetic gloves market in the USA will grow steadily.

Synthetic gloves are latex-free gloves manufactured from synthetic compounds and owing to their wear & tear resistance and maximum elasticity such gloves find applicability in automotive, food & beverage, and other sectors that involve working with harmful materials. The bolstering growth in such applications in the United States coupled with the increasing emphasis on worker safety has positively impacted the demand for synthetic gloves in the country. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, in 2022, the USA's automotive production reached 10.06 million units which represented a 10% increase over 2021's production figure.

Additionally, the ban implemented by the governing authorities on the usage of latex gloves is acting as an additional driving factor. For instance, in June 2022, Illinois Governor J.B Pritzker signed the "HB209" law which restricted the usage of latex gloves in medical services and food preparation applications. The ban came under the effort to protect Illinoisians from adverse allergic reactions ranging from skin irritation to anaphylaxis.

Market Key Developments

• In August 2023, Trendco USA announced plans to invest US$43 million in establishing its production plant in Tuskegee, Alabama which will manufacture nitrile medical gloves. The establishment will increase the company's domestic supply.
• In November 2022, American Nitrile's new production facility started operating in Grove City, where it would produce 3.5 billion gloves annually which will be used in healthcare, government, and other industrial applications.
