Request Covid - 19 Impact

Overview

Personal protective equipment includes products such as protective clothing, helmets, goggles and visors, and other garments or equipment designed to protect the user from potential exposure, infection, or injury from biohazards and other threats. PPE safeguards individuals from a range of hazards including physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, biohazards, and airborne particulate matter. This equipment is extremely critical, in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of infectious diseases, as well as to ensure the safety of medical personnel in laboratories, research centers, and other settings, where there is potential to contract infections or other related diseases.

Dynamics

Since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus or COVID-19, the need for protective equipment and other related gear has become far greater and has gained a heightened sense of urgency, considering that the outbreak was only classed as a pandemic a few months later. Since the initial reporting of this virus in Wuhan, China, numerous deaths and infections have been recorded across the world. As of the 22^nd of March 2021, 123 million people have been infected, resulting in 2.71 million deaths. The virus succeeded in infiltrating international borders, usually through an infected host or carrier, which resulted in respective governments across the globe imposing a complete lockdown of states, cities and towns. Individuals have been instructed to remain in their respective homes, as social/physical distancing has been effectively proven to curb the trajectory of this infectious virus. The virus is primarily spread from an infected individual to a healthy one via respiratory fluids that may have been ejected (sneezing, coughing, etc.), that may continue to remain airborne for a period of time, eventually blanketing surface areas within its vicinity. With medical facilities around the world facing the gargantuan task of treating infected patients, the testing of potentially infected individuals, as well as the treatment of patients housed in isolation wards and habilitation centers, and the need for adequate personal protection equipment or gear is of paramount importance. A major factor presently fueling growth of the global personal protective equipment market is the lack or low availability of various types of PPE required to ensure the safety of essential service professionals. Besides the need for adequate PPE among healthcare professionals who are engaged in the development of potential vaccines, there is also a greater requirement for protective equipment manufacturers to develop and introduce safer and more cost-effective products, owing to the sheer increase in global demand over the last year. The World Health Organization estimates that 89 million medical masks are required every month, along with 76 million examination gloves, and 1.6 million medical goggles, in order to effectively treat patients, until the vaccine is made available globally. Among the types of personal protective equipment required by healthcare professionals dealing with coronavirus, there are four major types - isolation gowns, gloves, respirators, and face masks.

The lack of awareness concerning the safety standards that need to be maintained while manufacturing these products, could potentially result in numerous products being recalled, or not passing the required export or international goods norms of certain countries. This can negatively impact the revenue growth of the global personal protective equipment market, to a significant extent. Additionally, challenges related to the unavailability of raw materials, and the various restrictions of logistics industry amid regional lockdowns can greatly hamper the revenue growth of the global personal protective equipment market in the foreseeable future.

Respective regulatory bodies paired with other healthcare-related organizations are working towards improving the safety standards and awareness levels. Initiatives such as this are slated to increase the demand for personal protective equipment, and in turn, boost the revenue growth of the global personal protective equipment market over the next 10 years.
