The global disposable hospital gowns market size is expected to reach USD 8.57 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 12.9% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing prevalence of Surgical Site Infections (SSIs), rising number of surgeries performed coupled with growing incidence of chronic disorders and impact of COVID-19 are the key factors driving the market. The increasing prevalence of Hospital-Acquired Infections (HAIs) is a major factor expected to propel the market growth over the forecast period.
According to the data published by health.gov (U.S. dept. of Health and Services) in 2020, about 1 in 25 inpatients have a hospital-related infection, at any given time. Such incidents are projected to augment demand for disposable gowns as they aid in the prevention of the spread of infections and diseases. Furthermore, the rise in hospital admissions due to the global COVID-19 pandemic will drive the product demand. In addition, major players operating in the market are launching new products and extending their production capacities to overcome the rising demand for disposable hospital gowns.
For instance, in April 2021, Precision Textiles launched EcoGuard material. The eco-friendly fabric is manufactured in the United States and is designed for use in Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), especially disposable medical isolation gowns. In September 2020, the Department of Defense, on behalf of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), signed an agreement with 9 American companies for the delivery of 73 million COVID-19 disposable isolation gowns at USD 335M. Therefore, such instances are anticipated to propel market growth over the forecast period.
