North America Disposable Gloves Market Size, Share, Industry Key Features, Growth Drivers 2027

The disposable gloves market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 2,915.80 million in 2021 to US$ 7,671.99 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 14.8% from 2021 to 2028.

The North America Disposable Gloves Market is experiencing significant growth, primarily due to the increasing prevalence of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). These infections are a major concern in healthcare, causing high mortality rates and substantial financial burdens. For instance, approximately 90% of hospital-acquired pneumonia cases are linked to mechanically ventilated patients.

Gloves serve as a crucial barrier against germs, preventing the spread of diseases within healthcare settings. They protect both patients and healthcare professionals by minimizing germ transmission, especially when dealing with bodily fluids, tissues, mucous membranes, or broken skin. This vital role in infection control is expected to fuel the demand for surgical gloves.

New features and technological advancements are also enabling vendors to attract new customers and expand their reach into emerging markets, further contributing to the notable CAGR of the North American disposable gloves market during the forecast period.
