Global Face Mask Market to Reach USD 58.17 Billion by 2028 Amid Changing Demand Trends

The global face mask market is projected to reach USD 58.17 billion by 2028, with a slowing growth rate of 5.2% from 2021 to 2028. The surge in demand during the COVID-19 pandemic significantly boosted the market, as face masks became a primary tool for preventing virus transmission. COVID-19 spreads mainly through respiratory droplets, and wearing face masks helps prevent the virus from passing from an infected person to others. Even in private settings, such as home visits, more people have continued to wear masks out of concern for infection risks. Governments worldwide have also implemented mask mandates as a safety measure during the pandemic.

Product Type Overview
The market is segmented into surgical masks, respirators, and others.
N95 respirators offer a close fit and filter about 95% of airborne particles, making them highly effective against viruses such as COVID-19. These are widely used by healthcare professionals for protection from infectious droplets.
Surgical masks are essential in medical settings, protecting both healthcare workers and patients during surgical procedures from germs and fluid splashes.
Rising rates of chronic illnesses, an aging global population, and more surgical procedures due to accidents and sports injuries are contributing to growing demand for surgical masks.

Material Insights
By material type, the market is divided into polyurethane, polypropylene, polyester, and cotton.
Most masks are made with layers of nonwoven polypropylene, with melt-blown polypropylene often used in the middle layer for its excellent filtration capabilities. This material is widely used in medical-grade masks, including N95 and N99 respirators, as it effectively blocks airborne particles while allowing air to pass through. It is also more affordable compared to woven or knitted fabrics.
