Global Disposable & Reusable Mask Market was valued at US$ 1,276.7 Mn in 2022, and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.1%, in terms of revenue, over the forecast period (2023-2030) to reach US$ 2,219.0 Mn by 2030. Due to the massive growing industrial sector, the importance of protecting against pollutants and harmful viruses in developing economies such as China, India, and Brazil is expected to increase the demand for disposable face masks to avoid infection. The COVID-19 outbreak in 2020 caused a dramatic increase in global demand for disposable face masks. The use of these disposable face masks is an important infection control measure for limiting virus spread.
Global Disposable & Reusable Mask Market - Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has boosted the market for face masks. Face masks are mostly used as personal protective equipment to prevent or slow the spread of viruses like SARS-CoV-2. As a result, these face masks have been used to control public and personal health. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a crippling effect on global manufacturing, supply chain, and logistics. For instance, in 2020, according to the World Health Organization, global face mask production needs to be increased by 40% to meet the global shortage. The pandemic has already spread to over 213 countries, prompting many governments to prohibit the export of personal protective equipment, including face masks. As a result, many companies are stepping up their efforts to close the gap between supply and demand for these face masks.

Global Disposable & Reusable Mask Market: Growth Drivers
Rising Number of Surgeries
Surgical services have long been recognized as an essential component of the public healthcare system. The incidence/prevalence of various acute and chronic diseases increases the number of surgeries performed. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 234 million major surgical procedures are performed globally each year. The rising geriatric population, more options for minimally invasive surgery, and technological advancements in surgical procedures are all significant factors contributing to the growing number of surgeries.

Market Trends
Furthermore, the rate of infections developing after surgery and surgical site injuries (SSI) is rising in direct proportion to the increased procedural volume of surgeries performed globally. SSI is one of the most common and expensive post-operative complications, increasing morbidity, mortality, length of stay, hospital readmission, and hospital costs. Furthermore, surgeries such as orthopedic, laparoscopic, bariatric, gynecological, and gastrointestinal (GI) procedures accounted for a large portion of the growing volume of surgical procedures worldwide. Acute burns and trauma cases are also on the rise globally. These factors are expected to boost market growth for disposable and reusable masks. For instance, in August 2020, Burberry introduced the first set of sustainable and reusable face masks made from cotton and antimicrobial technology. Burberry Group plc (Burberry) manufactures, retails, wholesales and markets luxury goods.
