Natural rubber is estimated to be the second largest. Material part. These gloves are tactile and therefore very popular in sensitive applications such as medical procedures and surgery. In addition, they are flexible and comfortable to use, making them ideal for processing biological or water-based materials. However, they can cause allergies and skin reactions. The compound annual growth rate of the neoprene materials sector is expected to be 9% during the forecast period. Neoprene is a synthetic rubber produced by the polymerization process of chloroprene. This material is waterproof and resistant to stretching and chemicals, which is why it is used in laboratories, where people often deal with chemicals that can damage the skin.
Application insight:
The test application field led the market with a global share of more than 70% in 2020 and is expected to continue to dominate throughout the forecast period. Disposable gloves made of vinyl or natural rubber are commonly used in general low-risk procedures, including non-invasive medical examination applications. Infections spread through human contact are one of the main causes of diseases in the healthcare industry, so doctors, nurses, paramedics, and other healthcare professionals often wear gloves to protect themselves from contamination during examinations or operations. In addition, the rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to drive the demand for examination gloves during the forecast period. The surgical application sector is expected to record the fastest compound annual growth rate of 8% during the forecast period.
