The polyglycolic acid market in Gambia is expanding due to its applications in medical devices, packaging, and agriculture. Its biodegradability and high mechanical strength make it a promising material in sustainable industries.
Polyglycolic acid (PGA) is gaining popularity in medical applications, especially in surgical sutures, driven by its biodegradable and biocompatible properties. The growing healthcare and biotechnology sectors in Gambia, along with advances in medical technology, are driving the demand for PGA in various medical applications.
The polyglycolic acid market faces challenges related to high production costs and limited demand due to the lack of awareness about its biodegradability and applications. Furthermore, the absence of domestic production capabilities and inadequate investment in research and development hinder market growth.
The Gambia government can enhance the polyglycolic acid market by supporting industries such as medical devices, textiles, and environmental sustainability. Polyglycolic acid is used in biodegradable materials and has applications in medical sutures and films. The government could focus on promoting research into new uses for this biodegradable polymer and supporting local manufacturers who produce polyglycolic acid products. By encouraging environmentally friendly applications of polyglycolic acid and offering incentives for its production, the government can foster a sustainable and competitive market.
