According to Ravi Bhandari, Research Head, 6Wresearch, the Nitrile gloves segment is the dominant segment in the industry and will continue to grow in the coming years due to its superior properties such as high puncture resistance, chemical resistance, and durability compared to other types of gloves. Moreover, Nitrile gloves are also latex-free, making them a safer option for individuals with latex allergies which will further boost the growth of this segment.
Based on Form, the powder-free gloves segment is the dominant segment in the industry and will continue to grow in the coming years due to the increasing awareness about potential side effects of using powdered gloves, such as allergic reactions and infections from powder particles entering wounds or mucous membranes. Moreover, many healthcare facilities are switching to powder-free gloves due to their ease of use and reduced risk of contamination which will further lead to the growth of this segment.
Based on Application, the examination gloves segment is the dominant segment in the industry and will continue to grow in the coming years due to the increasing number of routine medical check-ups, diagnostic tests, and outpatient procedures being performed, which require the use of examination gloves. Moreover, with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a surge in demand for these gloves for regular use in public places to prevent the spread of the virus.
Based on Usage, the disposable gloves segment is the dominant segment in the industry and will continue to grow in the coming years due to the convenience, cost-effectiveness, and reduced risk of cross-contamination associated with disposable gloves. Moreover, with the increasing emphasis on infection control measures and hygiene standards in healthcare settings, the demand for disposable gloves is expected to remain high and will lead to the growth of this segment.
Based on Sterility, the sterile gloves segment is the dominant segment in the industry and will continue to grow in the coming years due to the strict guidelines and regulations for sterility in surgical procedures and infection control measures as sterile gloves provide a higher level of protection against potential contaminants compared to non-sterile gloves, making them essential for surgeries and other invasive procedures.
Based on Distribution Channel, the brick & mortar segment is the dominant segment in the industry due to the traditional preference for purchasing medical supplies from physical stores, especially in rural areas with limited access to online shopping. Moreover, brick and mortar retailers often offer bulk discounts and have a wider range of products available for purchase. However, the segment that will grow in the coming years is e-commerce segment which is due to the increasing popularity of e-commerce platforms and their convenience for purchasing medical supplies.
Based on End-Use, the hospital segment is the dominant segment in the industry and will continue to grow in the coming years due to the increasing number of hospital admissions and surgeries, which require a large quantity of medical gloves for various procedures. Moreover, the ongoing pandemic and rising healthcare spending will lead to the growth of this segment.
