MARKET OUTLOOK
According to an analysis by Triton Market Research, the cleanroom disposable gloves market in Asia-Pacific is likely to flourish at a CAGR 8.81% and 8.10% in terms of revenue and volume, respectively, in the projected period 2019-2028.
South Korea, China, Australia & New Zealand, Japan, India, ASEAN countries and the Rest of APAC together form the Asia-Pacific’s cleanroom disposable gloves market.
The semiconductors industry is a prominent end-user segment of the cleanroom disposable gloves market in Japan. However, with the emergence of industrial robots in the electronics and semiconductors sector, a decline in the demand for cleanroom disposable gloves is expected. The rising automation is limiting the workforce, thereby reducing the use of cleanroom disposable gloves.
In China, the outsourcing of manufacturing operations in the pharmaceutical industry is expected to fuel the demand for cleanroom spaces in the country. This is likely to consequently increase the demand for cleanroom apparel, including disposable gloves. The cleanroom facilities in China accounted for approximately 474645 sq meters of cleanroom space in the year 2013. The country has been employing nearly 3,00,000 personnel in cleanroom spaces. The presence of leading manufacturer companies engaged in the cleanroom disposable gloves market, such as Zhejiang Conco Antistatic Technology, DuPont, Riverstone Holding Limited, Suzhou Hesan Static Tech Company Limited and HMLY Purge Fabric Co Ltd, in China, is also influencing the market growth positively.
