Personal protective equipment (PPE) includes various products like gloves, face masks, surgical gowns, and more. There is always a huge demand for PPE materials across the globe due to the developing healthcare infrastructure in developing countries and the increased requirement for safety measures in healthcare setups. In a few cases, the demand for PPEs is due to exceptional factors like disease outbreaks, pandemics, and epidemics. The world is exposed to multiple outbreaks and other disastrous infections. One such event occurred in 2019, which started as a simple respiratory infection, and later spread to more than 190 countries and killed millions of people across the globe. The COVID-19 pandemic is driving the demand for various PPE materials in healthcare settings. An important PPE material that is largely in demand during the pandemic, pre-pandemic, and post-pandemic, is medical face masks. This is one of the most essential materials used in various healthcare settings from hospitals, labs, research centers, ambulatory surgical centers, long-term care facilities, clinics, and more.
