Nonwoven Disposable Gloves Market Insights

Disposable nonwoven gloves are primarily used in the health and food industries to prevent cross-infection between caregivers and patients. Various versions of disposable gloves, such as natural rubber, nitrile, vinyl, neoprene, and others, have emerged in recent years, each offering distinct advantages over standard gloves. Consequently, they find applications across multiple sectors including food services, clean rooms, manufacturing, and more.

The growing demand for disposable nonwoven gloves in healthcare, particularly attributed to the increasing susceptibility of the geriatric population to diseases, is expected to drive market growth in the forecast period. The primary materials used for nonwoven gloves include cotton, polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and viscose. Many products are manufactured using combinations of two fabrics, such as cotton & PE and PET & viscose, to enhance efficiency and minimize the risk of contamination.

Spunbonded products have gained significant penetration in the USA due to early adoption and cost-effectiveness. Regulatory bodies such as OSHA and the National Health Service (NHS) have implemented laws governing the use of gloves in medical applications to prevent contamination. In the United States, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) mandates the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) through federal regulations to mitigate foreseeable risks to personnel health and ensure workplace safety.

Factors such as unfavorable economic conditions, fluctuating raw material prices, and high R&D investments are anticipated to impede sector development in the predicted period. Additionally, stringent regulations pertaining to both emerging and advanced medical textiles are expected to restrict industry growth for disposable nonwoven gloves. However, the development of nonwoven fabrics with enhanced features such as antimicrobial properties and increased absorption to reduce cross-contamination is expected to create new business opportunities. Increased awareness of hospital-acquired infections has also led to the adoption of advanced nonwoven devices.

Nonwoven Disposable Gloves Market Segmentation
