Covid-19 Pandemic has affected the lives of every single individual. To prevent the spread of this virus, people have started using safety equipment.
In many countries, the Coronavirus outbreak has caused a shortage of medical equipment.
The demands for medical equipment and accessories such as blood bags, medical curtains, and surgical gloves are growing rapidly.
All this equipment is made from medical polymers.
This has boosted the current medical polymers market. According to a recent study, the same demand will be there throughout the coming years until 2028.
Besides this, the demand for hip and joint replacements and spinal cord replacement applications is also growing.
All these applications are made from medical polymers. Here’s the list of key suggestions from this recent study about medical polymers.
Key suggestions for Medical Polymers Market
- The demand for resins and fibers is increasing due to their high-resistance property. These materials have a share of 74.35% of the market last year. With the increasing demand for these raw materials, the experts believe that the market for fibers and resins will be increasing rapidly in the coming years.
- Moving on to the biodegradable plastic segment, the CAGR of this segment is forecasted at 15.7%. Due to coronavirus outbreaks, the demand for biodegradable products is increasing. Besides this, the use of prosthesis for joint replacement and other procedures are also increasing. So there will be a high demand for biodegradable products in the coming years.
- In medical devices, machines, tools, cardiac stents, joint replacement accessories, and for many other purposes, the demand for medical polymers will be high throughout the forecast period.
- The Asia Pacific Region has forecasted the high demand for medical polymers throughout the forecasted period.
If we talk about the market share, over 53% of the market of medical polymers is occupied by medical devices and equipment. It is the largest segment of this particular industry that has seen drastic growth in recent years.
