The growth in awareness for masks, primarily in hospitals and industrial sectors, is expected to drive the face mask market during the forecast period. Face masks are essential elements of the infection-control strategy, primarily in healthcare facilities. Generally, two major types of face masks are used to prevent respiratory infection, such as surgical masks, sometimes referred to as face masks and respiratory masks. Both types of face masks are classified based on the type and size of infectious particles they can filter. Face masks covered in the global disposable face masks market are used to cover the nose and mouth to safeguard against contamination, infection, or exposure to potential viruses and foreign or potentially harmful elements in the surroundings. Although relatively healthcare personnel use face masks more often, they are also used by people with health concerns or breathing and lung-related conditions to protect against pollution, dust, or other potentially hazardous environments that can cause infections or breathing-related issues. People with asthma are also recommended to wear similar masks to avoid or reduce the chances of asthma attacks. N95 respirator masks are the most common particulate-filtering respirator masks, which meet the US National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) N95 classification of air filtration. Respirator masks are primarily recommended for use by HCPs. However, sometimes respirator masks are also being prescribed for people with chronic respiratory, cardiac, or other medical conditions that make breathing difficult.
