Global plastic bandage Market is poised to value over US$ 3810 million by 2025

 




A plastic bandage is a small piece of plastic material that is used to support a medical device, such as a dressing or splint, or to support or restrict the movement of a body part. For abrasions, minor cuts, and puncture wounds, plastic bandages are used as adhesive strips. These bandages keep dirt, bacteria, and friction out of the wound. The healing process slows down after an injury. Plastic bandages have antiseptic properties that aid in wound healing, especially in cases of deep abrasion, burns, and excessive bleeding. Plastic bandages are simple to use, store and are inexpensive. Adhesive bandages are the most common type of plastic bandage. Plastic materials for adhesive bandages are synthetic, semi-synthetic, or organic compounds used to form bandages. Plastic adhesive bandages are typically made of polyethylene, polyurethane, or PVC film. Plastic bandages come in a variety of sizes and styles.

An increase in the number of recreational activities, such as adventure sports, hunting, and trekking results in multiple cuts, abrasions, minor injuries, and wounds that require the use of plastic bandages.Globally, the number of road accidents is also increasing. Some non-fatal road injuries necessitate the immediate application of plastic bandages.According to STANFORD CHILDREN'S HEALTH, more than 3.5 million children aged 14 and under are injured in the United States each year while participating in sports or recreational activities.Other areas requiring adhesive bandages include an increase in the incidence rate of both domestic and workplace injuries.

Domestic activities, such as cooking, housework, falls, burns from hot drinks/cooking, and so on, are a major source of injury, particularly among women and children.According to an article published in A Secure Life, more than 3.4 million children in the United States suffers unintentional household injury each year.

The global plastic bandages market is classified into three types: flexible fabric bandages, cohesive fixation bandages, and others.

The global plastic bandages market was valued at 2580 million USD in 2018 and is expected to grow to 3810 million USD by the end of 2025. In 2018, the flexible fabric bandages type segment held the largest share of the global plastic bandages market. This segment is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. The dominance of this segment can be attributed to an increase in the incidence rate of injuries, particularly in the workplace and in households, which has resulted in an increase in demand for plastic bandages. Furthermore, flexible fabric bandages are water-resistant.

The global plastic bandages market can be divided into three distribution channels: hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online sales. Hospital pharmacies generated the most revenues in 2018 and are expected to grow during the forecast period. This can be attributed to an increase in the number of cases of accidental injuries and their admission to hospitals and emergency clinics for treatment improved first-aid facilities at hospitals and clinics, and well-equipped staff with personal care facilities.

In 2018, The global plastic bandage market was highly fragmented. The following companies are major players in the global market:

  • 3M Cardinal Health Johnson & Johnson Services, Inc.
  • Medline Industries, Inc.
  • BSN Medical Inc.
  • Beiersdorf
  • Smith's and Nephew's

Quaternary Ammonium Compounds Market to Grow at USD 1.63 billion by 2027: COVID Impact & Post COVID Analysis, Business Opportunities, and Strategies

Image
  By 2027, the global market for Quats (Quaternary Ammonium Compounds) is expected to reach USD 1.63 billion. The market is being driven by the rise in the occurrence of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) and the implementation of stringent regulations and favorable government initiatives on disinfection and sterilization. Developing economies are expected to give significant opportunities for growth. Fabric softeners, disinfectants, surfactants, antistatic agents, and wood preservation are just a few of the uses for quaternary ammonium compounds. The product's numerous applications are projected to raise demand shortly. Quaternary ammonium compounds are commonly employed as conditioning agents in personal care products, such as skin, textile, and hair softeners. The surfactant industry considers QACs to be the ultimate workhorse. They're on the USEPA's "High Production Volume Chemicals" list. Self-assembly, surface-active properties, detergency, and antibact...

Butyraldehyde Market Trends, Growth, Demand, opportunities, Scope & Forecast 2027 by CMI

Image
  Buthylaldehyde (also known as butanal) is a 4-carbon aldehyde that is used as a building block in organic syntheses to make various products such as n-butanol, 2-ethyl hexanol, 2-ethyl hexanoic acid, trimethylolpropane, and polyvinyl butyral. Pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, antioxidants, textile auxiliaries, perfumes, flavors, and many forms of additives are all made with it as an intermediate (fillers, wetting agents, defoaming agents, improvers). Alcohols (mono- and multi-hydroxide), acids, amines, and esters are all made from N-butyraldehyde as a raw material. Rubber accelerators, synthetic resins, plasticizers, solvents, and high molecular weight polymers are the biggest uses of butyraldehyde. All of these buthylaldehyde applications are detailed in this study. Butyraldehyde is widely used as a starting material for the downstream organic synthesis of n-butanol, trimethylolpropane, 2-ethyl hexanoic acid, and polyvinyl butyral. Pharmaceutical intermediates, synthetic resins,...

Glass Mat Thermoplastic Market : Size, Growth, Regional Analysis, And Market Area

Image
Glass mat thermoplastic is a thermoplastic that can be easily moulded and is used to make a variety of components, primarily in the automotive industry. Because of the longer residual length of the glass strands, glass mat thermoplastic has better mechanical properties than injection moulded reinforced thermoplastic. It is primarily used as a replacement for steel and aluminium. They are available in panel form as well as 3D structural component form. Furthermore, they are a lightweight material with a low relative density, excellent hardness and rigidity at low temperatures, and are chemical and moisture resistant . These are durable materials with ease of recyclability. Furthermore, the demand for the glass mat thermoplastic material from the automobile and aeration industries leads to market growth. When compared to other end-use industries, the automotive application segment is expected to remain the largest. Furthermore, a surge in government initiatives for increased fuel eco...
