Market Definition
N95 masks are designed to fit tightly over the face and create a seal that prevents inhaling airborne particles. They are called N95 because they are designed to filter at least 95% of airborne particles. NIOSH, part of the centers for disease control and prevention (CDC), sets the standards for N95 respirators.
N95 masks are used in many industries where workers may be exposed to airborne particles, such as construction, mining, and healthcare. In healthcare, N95 masks are typically used by medical professionals treating patients with infectious diseases or other respiratory illnesses.
N95 masks are typically made of multiple layers of synthetic materials such as polypropylene and are designed for single use. They are commonly used in healthcare by medical professionals and first responders who may be exposed to airborne pathogens. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, they have also become popular among the general public to protect themselves and others from the spread of disease.
North America N95 Mask Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
-
Increase in the air pollution levels
Air pollution has increased worldwide, especially in densely populated urban areas. This increase in air pollution is mainly due to human activities such as traffic, industrial processes, and energy production.
Air pollution is a major public health problem worldwide. According to the World Health Organization article of November 2022, outdoor and household air pollution is linked to 6.7 million premature deaths yearly.
Thus, the increasing air pollution levels increase the demand for N95 masks, which is a North America N95 mask market driver.
-
Rising prevalence of respiratory diseases
Respiratory diseases are a major North America health problem affecting millions of people worldwide. These diseases can cause significant morbidity and mortality and significantly affect the quality of life of affected individuals.
Respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer are the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, respiratory diseases cause about 10 percent of all deaths worldwide.
The increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases drives the N95 mask market. It has increased the demand for masks that protect people from the harmful effects of air pollutants and particles. N95 masks are an effective means of reducing exposure to these pollutants and can help prevent respiratory illnesses.
Restraint
-
Environmental concerns associated with the disposal of N95 masks
The widespread use of N95 masks during the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant environmental problems related to their disposal. Although N95 masks are designed for single use and should not be reused, their disposal can create problems with waste disposal systems and contribute to environmental contamination in several ways.
Disposing of N95 masks is the possibility of them ending up in landfills or the environment as trash. Although the synthetic materials used in N95 masks are generally not biodegradable, over time, they can break down into smaller microplastics, negatively affecting soil and water quality and wildlife health. In addition, the elastic straps and metal nose tips of N95 masks can present an entanglement or ingestion hazard to animals if not disposed of properly.
Thus, it can be said that increased application of N95 masks would impact the environment, which is expected to act as a restraint for the growth of the North America N95 mask market.
Opportunity
-
Technological advancement promoting the manufacturing of eco-friendly N95 masks
N95 masks are a type of face mask that provides high filtration efficiency and are commonly used in healthcare environments to protect against airborne particles and viruses. However, producing N95 masks can have a significant environmental impact due to the materials and energy used to make them.
Technological advances in producing environment-friendly N95 masks focus on using sustainable materials, reusable filters, energy-efficient production, chemical-free processes, and reusable masks. These advances help reduce the environmental impact of N95 mask production and promote a more sustainable approach to healthcare.
Thus the technological advancement promoting the manufacturing of eco-friendly masks increases the demand for N95 masks, which acts as an opportunity in the North America N95 mask market.
Challenge
- Limited production capacity and machinery for meeting the desired quality of N95 masks
The production of N95 masks requires special machines and equipment that meet the desired quality requirements. Limited production capacity and machinery have been a major challenge in meeting the demand for N95 masks.
N95 masks must filter at least 95% of airborne particles, including those that can carry infectious diseases such as influenza, COVID-19, and tuberculosis. Achieving this level of filtration efficiency requires special machinery capable of producing masks with the desired pore size and structure. The material used in manufacturing N95 masks is critical to ensure that the masks meet the desired quality standards. The materials used must be able to filter particles of the desired size while maintaining breathability. This requires special machines to process the materials according to the desired requirements.
Thus, it can be said that limited production capacity and machinery for meeting the desired quality of N95 masks are expected to challenge the growth of the North America N95 mask market.
Recent Development
- In November 2020, Owens & Minor announced an increase in mask and N95 respirator production capacity. This helped to increase the value of sales and revenue for Owens & Minor
- In May 2020, Balad Health and Premier, Inc. announced the partnership to acquire a minority interest in Prestige Ameritech. Under the terms of the contract, Ballad Health decided to purchase N95 and surgical masks from Prestige Ameritech.
