Market Overview

The global hospital gowns market size is projected to reach USD 12,792 million by 2030, from USD 4,313 million in 2021, and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 12.84% between 2022 and 2030.

Patients being checked or treated in a doctor's clinic or hospital wear a short collarless gown tied in the back. These hospital gowns provide hospital professionals easy access to the patient's body part being treated. These gowns are usually composed of cotton and are tied at the back using twill tape ties. Paper or thin plastic disposable medical gowns with paper or plastic ties are available. Some gowns contain snaps along the top of the shoulder and sleeves, removing the gown without disturbing the patient's intravenous line.

Patient gowns account for a substantial portion of the market and are expected to increase quickly throughout the projected period. The rising number of patients due to the increasing frequency of cardiovascular disorders can be linked to this segment's large market share. Furthermore, market growth is expected to rise by the vast and rapidly increasing number of critically ill COVID-19 patients.

Market Dynamics

Market drivers

  • Increase in number of surgical procedures

Surgical care is one of the most critical steps in successfully managing several health disorders, including obstructed labor, accidents, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and infections. Surgical treatment is also one of the most critical components of a well-functioning healthcare system. The World Health Organization (WHO) and other international healthcare organizations continue to emphasize surgery as one of the essential components for the worldwide development of the healthcare sector. However, adequate synchronization infrastructure, specialized supplies, and qualified human resources are required to improve surgical treatment.

The rising number of surgeries is likely to boost the market over the forecast period. According to Mölnlycke Health Care AB, 70 million surgical procedures are conducted throughout Europe each year. As a result, hospital gowns required for surgical procedures are predicted to be in high demand throughout the projection period. In 2014, the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) estimated that 9,942,000 operations were performed in ambulatory care settings in the United States. Patients are continually advised to wear hospital gowns to help avoid nosocomial infections. Such factors are anticipated to boost market growth throughout the forecast period.

  • Rising incidence of hospital-acquired infections (hais)

A nosocomial infection is contracted due to an illness or toxin found in a specific site, such as a hospital. People now use the words nosocomial infections and health-care-associated infections (HAIs), and hospital-acquired illnesses interchangeably. The infection must not be present before someone has received medical treatment for an HAI. One of the major factors boosting market expansion is the rising incidence of HAIs due to a lack of cleanliness and safeguards.

According to the CDC, one out of every 25 hospital patients develops at least one HAI each year. Hospital gowns offer broad contamination protection and can help reduce the incidence of HAIs. They can also keep germs and other organisms from a patient’s body. As a result, surgeons advise patients to dress in gowns before medical procedures. Over the estimated period, these factors are expected to propel market growth.

Marketg restraint

  • Increased demand for home care services

Over the projected period, increased usage of home care services is expected to stifle market growth. The advantages of home care services include long-term care, remarkable assistance services, and cost-effectiveness. On the other hand, patients receiving home care rarely wear hospital gowns and prefer to dress in casual clothing.

In addition, the existence of various businesses providing home care services around the world is likely to boost market growth. According to Statistics Norway, over 32% of people aged 80 and up utilized home care services in 2016. Over the projection period, this is expected to stifle market growth.

Segmental Analysis

By type

the global hospital gowns market is divided into surgical gowns, non-surgical gowns, and patient gowns. Surgical gowns held the largest share in 2021 and are forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 11.73%, generating a revenue of USD 6,289 million by 2030. Surgical gowns are used to prevent contamination and infections during surgical procedures. They're made with barrier qualities, low particle release rates, high purity, and high tensile strength in mind. They can also shield the person from infections, germs, and fungal transfer. They come in both reusable and disposable varieties.

Over the projected period, the market is expected to be driven by an increase in the number of surgical procedures and HAI cases. Some of the major market participants are working to improve the comfort and safety of patient gowns by redesigning and modifying them. Similar measures are expected to drive segment expansion.

The global hospital gowns market is divided into disposable gowns and reusable gowns based on usability. Disposable gowns dominate the global hospital gowns market and are anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 12.63% and generate a revenue of USD 2,017 million by 2030. Disposable hospital gowns are less expensive than reusable ones since they are only used once. They are preferable over reusable gowns in terms of safety and quality.

Furthermore, disposable gowns eliminate the additional costs of washing, bleaching, and conditioning. Disposable gowns are made from hypoallergenic and dermatologically certified materials. Disposable gowns can help limit the danger of contamination and infection transfer from one patient to the next. These benefits are projected to support segment growth during the predicted period.

Based on risk type

the global hospital gown market is divided into minimal-risk, low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk gowns. High-risk gowns led the hospital gowns market and are projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.27%, generating a revenue of USD 3,530.04 million by 2030. High-risk hospital gowns help protect against germs and infectious diseases during surgical and fluid-intensive operations. These gowns have high tensile strength, rip resistance, and breathability. Rising hospital admissions and research activities are likely to boost segment growth during the forecast period.

  • Impact of covid-19

    Given the widescale implications of COVID-19, pharmaceutical and biotech companies worked together with governments worldwide to curb the spread of COVID-19, from vaccine development to pharmaceutical supply chain planning. Common drugs such as hydroxychloroquine saw a significant surge in demand for COVID-19 treatment. Since many affluent countries ran out of these treatments, the rising need created enormous opportunities for COVID-19 management drug producers.

    Further, the supply chain for the raw materials needed to produce hospital gowns was interrupted in numerous countries due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the market for hospital gowns fell as manufacturers reduced production due to the pandemic. As a result, COVID-19 had a substantial impact on the market for hospital gowns.

    Nonetheless, the pandemic and a general increase in hospital admissions worldwide have dramatically increased the demand for medical disposables. The WHO urged industry and governments to boost PPE manufacturing by 40% to meet rising worldwide demand, including hospital gowns, gloves, medical masks, face shields, aprons, respirators, and goggles. It further stated that the growing demand for these items had resulted in significant price increases. Surgical masks and hospital gowns, for example, had climbed sixfold and twofold, respectively. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic substantially influenced the medical disposables business and is a powerful growth driver.
