The rising concerns on hygiene and safety from healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) is notably driving the sterile gloves market growth in Western Europe, although factors such as intense competition leading to pricing pressure for key vendors may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the sterile gloves industry in Western Europe. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Western Europe Sterile Gloves Market Driver
The rising concerns on hygiene and safety from healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) is one of the key drivers supporting the Western Europe sterile gloves market growth. Hand hygiene is one of the most important tools to prevent the transmission of infectious agents such as HAIs. Hence, as per the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, hand hygiene practices, including cleaning hands with disinfectants and wearing gloves at the point of care during patient contact, are necessary. Furthermore, European Union (EU) classifies and regulates sterile gloves under the medical device directive (MDD93/42/EEC) as Class I MD to implement good hand hygiene practices in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Moreover, in Western Europe, sterile surgical gloves must meet the EU medical devices (MD) directive standards for sterility assurance as this is less likely to cause contamination than non-sterile examination gloves. Such regulations will boost the growth of the Western Europe sterile gloves market during the forecast period.
Key Western Europe Sterile Gloves Market Trend
Increasing preference for powder-free gloves is one of the key Western Europe sterile gloves market trends contributing to the market growth. Fundamentally, using powdered gloves may be an obstacle to compliance with hand hygiene guidelines as it is associated with risks, such as exposure to starch powder, which can cause granulomas, pleuritis, and others. However, after wearing powdered gloves, healthcare workers are supposed to wash their hands instead of using an alcohol-based hand rub (ABHR), which may extend the time. Hence, manufacturers are focusing on developing powder-free gloves by removing the residual powder from powdered gloves. Such benefits offered by powder-free gloves are expected to propel the Western Europe sterile gloves market growth during the forecast period.
Key Western Europe Sterile Gloves Market Challenge
Intense competition leading to pricing pressure for key vendors is one of the factors hampering the Western Europe sterile gloves market growth. Primarily, the local manufacturers in Western Europe offer sterile gloves at a price lower than the products offered by established vendors, which leads to price wars based on the design and cost of these products. In view of this, leading vendors are focusing on developing and selling advanced sterile gloves at a lower cost to ensure higher sales volumes. However, this may result in low-profit margins for vendors. Furthermore, it may impact their RD spending, which affects the development of innovative products. Such challenges may hamper the Western Europe sterile gloves market growth during the forecast period.
