Increased number of accidents and trauma cases and rising toll of critical illnesses requiring immediate surgical intervention are the few factors responsible to propel the growth of the medical nonwoven disposables market. This is mainly due to the fact that nonwoven disposable products have certain advantages over woven textile products such as elimination of cross contamination, high efficiency of bacterial filtration etc. The limiting factors related to this market are the growing popularity of robot-assisted and non-invasive surgeries and the environmental issues regarding its disposal. Technological advancement in the manufacturing of biodegradable disposable products and increasing number of hospitals and clinics performing surgical procedures will result in market penetration of the medical nonwoven disposables.
For the purpose of this study, the products considered are incontinence products and surgical nonwoven products. Incontinence products are further segmented as disposable underwear, cotton pads, panty shields and disposable diapers (ultra absorbent disposable diapers, superabsorbent disposable diapers and biodegradable disposable diapers); surgical nonwoven products are categorized as surgical drapes, surgical shoe covers, surgical caps, surgical gowns, sterile nonwoven swabs and others. Market size estimates and forecast for these segments for the period 2015 to 2025 are provided in terms of US$ Mn along with the respective CAGRs for the period 2017 to 2025, considering 2016 as the base year.
The geographic segmentation of global medical nonwoven disposable market is performed for the regions North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa. The regions are also further sub-segmented on the basis of major countries:

Based on product, the global medical nonwoven disposables market is categorized into
Rising incidence of injuries due to traffic collisions, drowning, poisoning and assault, increasing number of geriatric and incontinent patients and technology advancement in the nonwoven medical disposable products as compared to the woven disposables are the potential growth factors to propel the demand for medical nonwoven disposables. Currently, surgical nonwoven products hold the larger market in the product segment due to factors such as rising number of critical illnesses requiring surgical intervention and increasing number of trauma and road accidents. The incontinence products will be the fastest growing market in the product segment, primarily due to the factors such as technical innovations e.g. biodegradable diapers, sustainable chlorine free incontinence pads, which prevent skin rashes, irritation and increasing prevalence of urinary and fecal incontinence in geriatric patients. Overall, the global medical nonwoven disposables market is highly competitive with presence of multiple players like Abena Group, Ahlstrom Corporation, Asahi Kasei Corporation, Covidien, Domtar Corporation, First Quality Enterprises, Inc., Freudenberg Nonwoven, Kimberly Clark Corporation, Medline Industries, Inc. and Molnlycke Health Care AB. etc. specializing in respective fields.
For the purpose of this study, the global medical nonwoven disposable market is categorized into following regional and country specific markets:
North America was observed as the largest regional market for medical nonwoven disposables in the base year 2016. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in every 25 U.S. patients has at least 1 infection, contracted during their stay at the hospital. The dominance of North America is mainly attributed to large number of incontinent geriatric population, rising public awareness to maintain personal hygiene and demand for surgical disposables to prevent infection in the urge to reduce the toll of hospital acquired infections. Europe is estimated to be the second largest regional market due to rising public preference for personal hygiene, enhanced spending by major pharmaceutical players in R&D facilities to introduce innovative medical nonwoven disposable products, and supportive regulatory approval for medical nonwoven disposables. Asia Pacific will be the fastest growing market throughout the forecast period 2017-2025, majorly due to factors such as rising prevalence of critical illnesses requiring surgical procedure, rise in market competition due to presence of existing and budding manufacturers involved in medical nonwoven disposables production, and increasing disposable income in the constituent economies. However, factors such as developing health infrastructure, increasing awareness about sanitation and demand for medical nonwoven disposables in untapped markets are going to fuel the rapid growth of medical nonwoven disposables market in Latin America and Middle East and Africa in the near future.
