Market Definition

A glove is a hand-covering item of clothing. The thumb and each finger typically have their openings or sheaths on gloves. Cloth, knitted or felted wool, leather, rubber, latex, neoprene, silk and metal are among the materials used to make gloves (as in mail). Kevlar gloves shield the wearer from cuts. In pressure suits and spacesuits such as the Apollo/Skylab A7L that traveled to the moon, gloves and gauntlets are essential parts. Gloves for spacesuits combine a certain amount of sensitivity and flexibility with hardness and environmental protection.

Gloves Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Growing Healthcare Sector

The rising global population and infections contribute to the high prevalence of chronic diseases. This increase in chronic and acute diseases among the elderly population is leading to a rise in hospitalizations, consequently boosting the demand for gloves in the market. Disinfection and sterilization practices are essential to prevent medical and surgical instruments from transmitting infectious pathogens to patients. The rising incidence of disorders further drives the demand for medical gloves used in operation theaters. Gloves serve both care and housekeeping purposes in healthcare facilities, and the heightened risk of infectious conditions directly correlates with increased demand for gloves to mitigate these risks. Therefore, the growing number of chronic diseases is expected to drive market growth for gloves.       

• Increasing Awareness and Regulations 

Heightened consumer awareness regarding the appropriate use of gloves is paramount for healthcare workers striving to safeguard themselves and their patients from infection. Gloves serve as a crucial barrier between microbes and hands, acting as a shield against contagious infections. During surgical procedures, both surgeons and patients face potential infection risks, making medical gloves essential in protecting healthcare workers from cross-contamination. Furthermore, wearing gloves in hospital settings has been recommended as a preventive measure to curb the spread of microbes in the environment, which is driving the market growth.       

Opportunities

• Multi-Functionality of Gloves

The extensive variety of gloves available today offers protection against a diverse range of hazards, contributing to their multifunctionality and widespread application. These gloves can be broadly categorized into four groups. Firstly, leather, canvas, or metal mesh gloves provide durability and protection against cuts, burns, and heat. Secondly, fabric and coated fabric gloves, typically made of cotton or other materials, protect against dirt, slivers, chafing, and abrasions. Chemical and liquid-resistant gloves, made from rubber or plastic blends, offer protection against a wide range of chemicals and liquids. Insulating rubber gloves, such as those made from natural (latex) rubber or neoprene, provide comfort and protection against abrasions, and water solutions of acids, alkalis, salts, and ketones. The versatility and adaptability of these gloves present a significant opportunity for market growth, as they cater to various industries and applications requiring specialized protection.

• Government Initiatives and Improved Regulations

Government initiatives, in collaboration with various organizations and manufacturers, have ensured the supply of PPE, including gloves and masks, to the healthcare sector. This effort aims to enhance the safety of healthcare and industrial workers. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately one in six Americans (48 million people) fall ill, leading to 3,000 deaths and 128,000 hospitalizations due to foodborne diseases annually. Ensuring compliance with standards is crucial for consumers to trust the safety and quality of the products they purchase, as well as for importers to trust that the food they order meets their specifications. Therefore, food safety has become a major concern, leading many governments to take initiatives to ensure food safety, quality, and fair trade. These initiatives are expected to contribute to market growth by preventing the spread of foodborne diseases.
