Based on the type of material, the global disposable gloves market is segmented as follows:

• Latex
• Vinyl
• Nitrile
• Others (Polyethylene, Neoprene)

Traditional gloves are made from natural rubber (Latex) that is the most widely used material. Thus latex occupies the largest share in disposable gloves market. Latex gloves are being conventionally used due to easy availability, good elasticity and cheap. Nitrile and Vinyl gloves are the next fast growing markets. Nitrile gloves are generally recommended for use in ICU and emergency units, and also used in pharmacy labs when dealing with harsh chemicals. These glove types are more soft, durable and strong. With advent of technology, vinyl gloves have improved in terms of strength, comfort and tactile sensitivity. It is most preferred in clinical work, as it is latex free and cost effective. Polyethylene gloves are also considered to be a fast growing segment.

Based on the type, the global disposable gloves market is segmented as follows:

• Powdered Gloves
• Non Powdered Gloves

In powdered disposable gloves, powder act as lubricant making it easier to wear. However powder earlier used caused reaction and where found to be toxic. Corn starch was used, as it contains non irritating ingredients. Powdered form causes inflammation and corn starch may also have side effects. FDA has put a ban on powdered gloves for medical use, even U.K. and Germany does not allow it use. Thus new standard non powdered gloves are available in market that are increasingly being used. Non powdered gloves are being adopted widely and dominates the disposable market and is anticipated to grow in the forecast period.

For the purpose of this study, the global disposable gloves market is geographically categorized into:

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Latin America (LATAM)
• Middle East and Africa (MEA)

In 2016, North America dominates the global disposable gloves market. The growth driver for North America market are technological advancement, increase in demand of disposable gloves in healthcare, food processing and personal care, and need to prevent and control nosocomial infections. At present, Europe is next followed up market after North America. But developing countries showing rapid growth in healthcare structure, improving infrastructure, health reforms and regulation by government and increase in disposable income, would outgrow European market in years to come. Thus emerging economies show potential growth in forecast period. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing disposable gloves market with increasing awareness of health and maintenance of hygiene, stringent regulation in terms of health safety and hygiene and overall increasing investment in healthcare.
