Medical Gloves Market 2020 Growth, COVID Impact, Trends Analysis Report 2026

The global medical gloves market is projected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Medical gloves protect the wearer or patient from the transmission of infection or other illness during medical procedures. Medical gloves are regarded as one of the chief parts of an infection-control strategy. These gloves are controlled by the FDA under the category of Class I reserved medical devices, the devices which require a 510(k) premarket notification. Moreover, the FDA regularly reviews these devices to confirm an appropriate performance criterion of the gloves, including tear resistance, leak resistance, and biocompatibility.

The global medical gloves market is segmented based on material, type, and application. Based on the material, the market is segmented into natural rubber latex, nitrile, vinyl, neoprene, and others. Based on the type, the market is segmented into disposable and reusable/non-disposable gloves. Further, based on the applications, the market is segmented into the examination, and surgical.

Vinyl: The gloves made from vinyl are comparatively less effective than latex gloves, as they do not provide an impermeable membrane against micro-organisms. Moreover, they offer loose-fitting and are generally unsuitable for procedures such as manual dexterity. Therefore, the use of vinyl gloves is substantially limited in the healthcare industry.

Latex: These gloves offer proper fitting as compared to vinyl and provide an effective barricade against micro-organisms. The gloves made from latex are non-powdered and contains the lowest level of extractable protein. However, if a surgeon has a latex allergy, then they are recommended not to wear latex gloves. Moreover, most of the healthcare equipment is becoming latex-free, owing to the allergy risk to patients and staff.

Nitrile: The nitrile gloves are made from natural rubber latex and provide a biological barrier against micro-organisms. However, these gloves provide less elasticity and are generally used where the latex-free environment is required.
Neoprene: These gloves exhibit similar properties to nitrile gloves and are often regarded as a popular replacement of latex-free glove. However, these gloves are way more expensive than natural rubber latex gloves.
Most healthcare activities demand the custom of a single pair of nonsterile gloves that are mainly made of either latex, vinyl, or nitrile. However, due to the increase in allergies from latex gloves, certain facilities have limited or eliminated the use of latex products including gloves. It is now recommended to use gloves made of neoprene, nitrile, or other material. However, some gloves do not offer a snug fit on the hand, particularly around the wrist, and are therefore not used in extensive contact.

During surgical procedures, it is recommended by the regulatory bodies to the surgeon to wear two pairs of gloves. Sterile surgical gloves are used by surgeons and other healthcare bodies that perform invasive patient procedures. Such applications of medical gloves tend to drive the growth of the global medical gloves market.
