Global N95 Mask Market is valued at approximately USD 1.1 billion in 2019 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 45.1 % over the forecast period 2020-2027. N95 masks are a form of respiratory protective device designed to provide a near facial fit and airborne particles are filtered very efficiently. These masks' edges are meant to form a seal around the mouth and the nose. The straining property of these masks functions as a multi-layered arrangement made of non-woven fabric, where polypropylene (PP) is one of the raw materials most repeatedly used to manufacture this non-woven fabric. The driving factors could be attributed to the increasing occurrences of infectious biological diseases have contributed to an increase in demand for N95 masks, combined with the prevalence of COVID-19 worldwide. Costs have at least doubled for medical gloves, gowns, N95s-and other medical supplies,. The use of such masks to avoid the transmission of the virus from an infected person to the population is promoted by various medical bodies, such as the WHO, the CDC, and health ministries across numerous countries. The N95 design represents that the mask has the ability to restrict at least 95% of very small test particles. According to Premier, a company that buys medical supplies on behalf of about 40 percent of U.S. hospitals, the use of N95s has increased 500 percent since July 2020. Also, National Nurses United's (NNU) in November 2020 conducted a survey that shows the shortage of protective gear such as N95s remains an immense safety issue for its members. More than 80% of nurses have documented the reuse of single-use products such as N95 respirators, and about 20% of hospitals have recently prohibited the use of N95s. Honeywell International Inc. started manufacturing of disposable face masks at its Fulgaon production facility in Pune, India, in August 2020. The goal of this expansion is to supply the government of India with face masks in order to combat the spread of COVID-19 in the region. However, the lack of polypropylene melt-blown fabric is likely to cause another supply chain shortage in the polypropylene resin value chain, which was also short-lived during the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic. Thus, this may act as a restraint and hamper the growth of the market.
