COVID-19 scenario analysis

  • The medical plastics market has no significant impact of COVID-19 pandemic. This is attributed to the increase in demand for exam gowns, face masks, gloves. 
  • The shifting preference towards the application of disposable mask and gloves as a part of safety protocol largely impacted the market demand. 
  • However, the market witnessed temporary downfall during first and second quarter of 2020. The social distancing norms and global lockdown measures during first and second quarter led to decrease in sales of new medical device and equipment.
  • Additionally, the extended lockdown slowed down the production of medical plastics as well as cross border export and import. From beginning of May, 2020, over 70 countries including India, US, EU, and Switzerland had taken drastic measures to restrict export and import activities.
  • Due to restrictions on export and import, large number of countries mobilized their production process. These countries are focusing to strengthen domestic supply chain to meet the excess demand. 
  • Automotive companies and manufacturing plants which are temporarily closed have started producing disposable plastics products for medical equipment. This will slowly improve the market scenario.

Key findings of the study

  • The polypropylene (PP) segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR of approximately 7.6%, in terms of revenue, during the forecast period.
  • By application, the disposables segment held more than 25% market share with a CAGR of 4.1%, in terms of revenue, during the forecast period.
  • The Asia-Pacific region dominated the market with around 50% revenue share in 2019.
