Increasing prevalence of hospital
acquired infections and improving hygienic habits among people to favor growth
of the medical non-woven disposables market
Increasing prevalence of hospital
acquired infections is one of the major factors driving growth of the Medical
Non-Woven Disposables Market. According to Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, in 2014, around 722,000 people contracted HAIs in acute care
hospitals and around 75,000 patients suffering from HAIs died during
hospitalization in the U.S. European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control,
2016, reported that from around 87337 patients admitted in the ICU for over two
days, around 6995 patients were recorded with at least one HAI. Furthermore,
CDC and the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) have
collaborated since July 2010, to ensure funding for basic elements of HAI
program infrastructure at the federal, state, and local levels. Growing
geriatric population has increased the demand for medical non-woven
disposables, in turn, boosting growth of the market. Growing awareness
regarding improved hygienic habits among the populace and introduction of new
products in the incontinence segment are expected to fuel grow of the medical
non-woven disposables market in the near future. High demand for surgical
products in developed countries, has fueled growth of the incontinence and
surgical product segments, in turn creating immense opportunities for growth of
the global medical non-woven disposables market.

Healthcare workers are exposed to
infected liquid droplets and aerosols that possess the risk of transmitting
diseases such as hospital acquired infections (HSIs) and surgical site
infections (SSIs). To avoid susceptibility of such contamination, healthcare
workers use surgical face masks, gloves, gowns, caps, and shoe covers, which
are produced by fabric foaming technology such as woven, non-woven and knitted.
Non-woven surgical fabrics have been adopted by most hospitals, as they are
disposable in nature. Such materials have been developed due to advancements in
technology over the recent past.
Non-woven fabric forming technology is less costly than woven and
knitted technology. The materials used for non-woven sheets include
polypropylene, polyester, polycarbonate, polyethylene, and polystyrene. The filtration
process of non-woven fabrics has various advantages over woven and knitted
fabrics such as its higher bacterial
filtration efficiency, higher air permeability, no yarn slippage, lesser
contamination risk , and lower manufacturing cost.
Non-woven disposable products
offers opportunities for favorable growth of the medical non-woven disposables
market. Over the past decades, demand for polymeric nanofibers has tremendously
increased, owing to its very large surface area to volume ratio. This
exceptional property is suitable for application in medical textile products
such as drug delivery systems, surgical face masks, and wound dressing.

Demand for technology offering
high absorbent capacity and antimicrobial properties to help reduce chances of
cross-contamination, is increasing in the manufacturing of non-woven fabrics.
Microencapsulation technology offers immense opportunities to improve
properties of medical textile. Suspension of microcapsule is formulated in the
development of non-woven textile with prolonged antimicrobial activity. The textile is then impregnated with
microcapsules that are pressure-sensitive, which release the active ingredient
upon pressure.
Momentive performance material,
in 2011, launched NuWet 550 Hydrophilic silicone finish for non-woven medical
disposables, it gives a long-lasting hydrophilic finish to non-woven fabrics
such as diapers, surgical wipes. Silicone finish is employed in the medical
industry help minimize the migration of water to unwanted areas during surgical
processes.
Major key players operating in
the medical non-woven disposables market include Kimberly-Clark Corporation,
Medline Industries, Inc., Paul Hartmann AG, Mölnlycke Health Care, Ahlstrom
Corporation, Asahi Kasei Corporation, Medtronic, Inc., Svenska Cellulosa,
Freudenberg & Co. KG, Aktiebolaget SCA, and Domtar Corporation.
