Australia and New Zealand Cleanroom Gloves Market – Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is the most recent outbreak, which was first reported on December 31, 2019, in Wuhan, China. In Australia, the first COVID-19 case was confirmed in late January 2020, while in New Zealand, the first case was confirmed in late February 2020.

Lockdown was imposed in several countries globally, including Australia (March 13, 2020) and New Zealand (March 25, 2020), which had a negative impact on the economy of the private healthcare sector. The shutdown disrupted the supply, distribution, and manufacturing of medical supplies globally. Moreover, due to social distancing, the footfall in clinics and health institutions has fallen by more than 70% during this pandemic, which has led to decrease in the number of surgical procedures, clinical trials, research and development activities and others, which has negatively impacted the market growth.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the demand for PPE kits and gloves, which has led to increase in production of PPE kits, thereby, assisting the market growth.

Moreover, on March 03, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that approximately 76 million gloves, 1.6 million goggles, and 89 million masks were required globally for tackling COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, healthcare providers were facing challenges in terms of additional manpower, equipment, consumables, and other resources which are required to ensure safety in hospitals and provide treatment to patients with other diseases, which has also impacted the market negatively. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the rise in the price of personal protective equipment (PPE) by 100-200%, especially for the frontline health workers.

Risk of perforations in cleanroom gloves and duration of wearing of gloves specifically during various activities such as handling harmful chemicals and others can reduce its safety and effect in preventing the harmful effects of the chemical on the skin.

For instance, according to the article published in National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in March 2016, the perforation rate in the single gloves is 15.2%, in double gloves is 14.4%, in emergency operations is 15.5%, and in elective surgery is 14.3%.
