Surgical Masks Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.61% through 2030F
Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and growing
number of surgeries is expected to drive the Global Surgical Masks Market
growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030
According to TechSci Research report, “Surgical Masks Market - Industry Size,
Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2020–2030F”, the Global
Surgical Masks Market stood at USD 3.45 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to
grow with a CAGR of 5.61% in the forecast period. The global
surgical masks market is driven by several key factors. There is an increasing
need to prevent the spread of viral infections and mitigate exposure to
particulate air pollution. The growing need to prevent the transfer of
droplets, splashes, and sprays in healthcare settings is also contributing to
the market's revenue growth. Health workers are particularly susceptible to
infectious diseases, making the use of surgical face masks essential in
controlling the spread of infections, especially through droplet transmission.
In fact, the World Health Organization (WHO) updated its guidelines on mask-wearing,
recommending individuals aged 60 and older, and those with underlying medical
conditions, to wear surgical masks in areas with community transmission where
physical distancing is not possible.
Surgical masks are widely used to prevent the transmission
of infections and maintain cleanliness as they are sterile, resistant to dust
and foreign antigens, and do not absorb germs or viruses. Advancements in
medical surgery and diagnosis, along with the rise in the number of medical
device manufacturing companies, are significant factors driving the market's
growth. The adoption of surgical masks among the general population and
advancements in medical surgery are expected to further enhance the market demand
for surgical masks. Disposable face masks are anticipated to be in high demand,
particularly among individuals with specific sensitivities.
These masks come in various sizes and styles, providing
protection against dust and tiny airborne particles. The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) emphasizes the use of disposable face masks,
especially for medical staff who are at high risk of exposure to viruses,
germs, and other diseases. Various producers utilize different materials for
face masks, some of which may cause allergic reactions. Therefore, disposable
face masks serve as the initial line of defense against smoke and dust due to
the escalating detrimental effects of pollution. The surge in surgical procedures is anticipated to drive the
expansion of the surgical mask market in the future. Surgery encompasses
medical interventions wherein a physician makes incisions to address or remove
afflicted or damaged organs. It involves the excision or repair of unhealthy
tissues or organs for disease treatment.

The Global Surgical Masks Market is segmented into type,
material type, distribution channel, regional distribution, and company.
Based on material type, The
cotton segment is projected to exhibit a rapid revenue growth rate throughout
the forecast period. Cotton surgical masks are renowned for their excellent
protection against patients' respiratory secretions for healthcare workers.
Cotton fibers demonstrate superior inhibition of virus, pathogenic bacteria,
and fungi transfer compared to synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon. These
materials possess unique physical, chemical, and isoelectric properties,
ensuring both comfort and breathability. Cotton emerges as an ideal option for
face masks, safeguarding against a wide range of hazardous microbial
infections, including Coronaviruses like SARS-CoV-2.
Based on region, the Asia-Pacific region is the
fastest-growing market for surgical masks due to several key factors. The region's large and densely populated countries, such as China and India,
have high healthcare demands and increasing public health awareness. Rapid
urbanization and industrialization have also heightened concerns over air
pollution and respiratory illnesses, boosting mask usage beyond medical
settings. Rising healthcare expenditure and government initiatives to
strengthen healthcare infrastructure are driving demand for surgical masks,
particularly in rural and underserved areas. The region has become a major hub
for mask production, with strong manufacturing capabilities, low labor costs,
and access to raw materials, making surgical masks more affordable and widely
available. Frequent outbreaks of infectious diseases like COVID-19, SARS, and
influenza have further normalized mask-wearing as a preventive measure.
Combined, these factors contribute to robust market growth and make
Asia-Pacific a key region in the global surgical masks market.
