Based on our research output, there has been a positive impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The growing prevalence of hais is notably driving the surgical drapes market growth, although factors such as lower profit margins and increasing pricing pressure may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the surgical drapes industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Surgical Drapes Market Driver
The growing prevalence of HAIs is a major factor driving the global surgical drapes market share growth. The use of unsterilized equipment during surgeries increases the probability of HAIs and SSIs. According to a study conducted by the National Hospital for Tropical Diseases and others, in 2016, the prevalence of HAIs was substantially higher in low and middle-income countries. In these countries, the average prevalence of HAIs was estimated to be 15.5%, which is higher when compared with Europe and the US. The prevalence of HAIs is high in intensive care units (ICUs). The prevalence of HAIs in ICUs was 9.1% in the US, 23.0% in Europe, and 35.2% in low and middle-income countries. HAIs can be prevented by using surgical drapes. According to the OECD, in 2016, the prevalence of HAIs by medical specialty was high in surgical procedures. Therefore, when healthcare facilities and healthcare providers become aware of the problems associated with HAIs and take steps to prevent them, the prevalence of HAIs can decrease by more than 70%. This will lead to an increase in the adoption of surgical drapes.
Key Surgical Drapes Market Trend
The paradigm shift toward disposable surgical drapes is another factor supporting the global surgical drapes market share growth. The use of disposable surgical drapes is gaining popularity due to their several benefits. Disposable surgical drapes offer consistent product quality and reduce the need for sterilization in central sterile processing (CSP). This enables CSP staff to focus on the processing and sterilization of surgical instruments and other supplies. Single-use linens provide a better barrier to limit the transfer of microorganisms. Hence, they reduce the prevalence of SSIs. Single-use disposable drapes are made from non-woven materials, which are single or multi-layered. They provide different types of barriers to protection. These drapes are offered pre-sterilized. Disposable drapes minimize exposure to pathogenic organisms during and after surgeries. They also reduce the risk of infections and optimize sterility during operative and invasive procedures. Disposable surgical drapes are beneficial in preventing the spread of communicable diseases such as COVID-19, as they provide safety and reduce the risk of contamination. Disposable surgical drapes are comfortable and cost-effective. These factors drive the adoption of disposable surgical drapes.
Key Surgical Drapes Market Challenge
The lower profit margins and increasing pricing pressure will be a major challenge for the global surgical drapes market share growth during the forecast period. The global surgical drapes market is highly fragmented due to the presence of several vendors that have significant market shares. The leading vendors have broad product portfolios of advanced high-end surgical drapes, which are disposable and reusable. Small and medium-sized companies focus on a single product line in a specific geographic region. Hence, the leading vendors are facing lower profit margins due to competition. The vendors are also experiencing severe pricing pressure, which has resulted in price wars. Governments across the world are taking initiatives to reduce the pricing pressure on the healthcare industry. The intense price-based competition among vendors will affect the growth of the market during the forecast period.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 has significantly affected the population in the region, especially in the US. Hence, the demand for surgical drapes was affected in the first half of 2020. In order to ensure the safety of employees and availability of enough medical resources in the US, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the US Surgeon General, and many medical associations such as the American College of Surgeons and the American Society of Anesthesiologists had recommended interim cancelation of non-emergency surgical procedures in the first half of 2020. The interim cancelation of surgical procedures led to a decrease in demand for surgical drapes in early 2020. However, the demand for surgical drapes is likely to recover and increase after 2020-2021 owing to the resumption of regular surgical procedures and treatments in the region.
