At present, several manufacturers are offering a comprehensive range of medical nonwoven disposables manufactured using premium quality fabric in unique sizes, thicknesses, and textures.

Medical Nonwoven Disposables Market Trends

Surgeries often require prolonged bed rest and hospital stays, which increases the risk of developing hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). This, along with the increasing number of individuals undergoing surgical interventions due to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, represents one of the key factors positively influencing the demand for medical nonwoven disposables worldwide. The market growth can also be attributed to the increasing geriatric population across the globe, which is more susceptible to develop serious health complications. Apart from this, rising awareness about their benefits, such as sterility, breathability, comfort, and antibacterial properties, is also propelling the market growth. Moreover, the increasing concerns among parents about the negative impact of using regular diapers on babies are contributing to the adoption of medical nonwoven disposables to make skin-friendly diapers. Furthermore, due to the growing environmental concerns, several leading manufacturers are introducing biodegradable product variants, which are made using biopolymer like polylactic acid (PLA). They are also developing surgical masks, gowns, and drapes with an improved finish, liquid repellent, virus-proof, and bacterial barrier properties, which is projected to impel the growth of the market.
