Global Disposable Face Mask Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Disposable Face Mask Market Analysis

The Global Disposable Face Mask Market size is estimated at USD 2.54 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 2.83 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 2.19% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Among the significant factors driving the development of the Protective Face Mask Market are rising pollution levels, increasing adoption by the general population, and rising awareness about health and wellness. In addition, the growing number of surgeries being performed daily promotes the adoption of disposable face masks, boosting the Surgical Face Masks Market. For instance, per the data published by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) in June 2024, liposuction retained its position as the leading surgical procedure in 2023, mirroring its 2022 status, with over 2.2 million procedures performed. It was succeeded by breast augmentation, eyelid surgery, abdominoplasty, and rhinoplasty. All these procedures must be performed with proper care using disposable face masks to prevent infections, thereby boosting the Medical Face Mask Market.

Furthermore, the increasing cases of various infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis, are expected to increase the need for Protective Face Masks to prevent the spread from one person to another, thereby driving the Protective Face Masks Market. For instance, as per the data published by the United States Department of Health & Human Services in March 2024, tuberculosis cases rose across all age groups in 2023, affecting both United States-born and non-United States-born individuals, and were reported in most jurisdictions. The total count of cases climbed from 8,320 in 2022 to 9,615 in 2023, marking an uptick of 1,295 cases. Correspondingly, the rate per 100,000 individuals rose from 2.5 in 2022 to 2.9 in 2023. This shows the growing burden of infections, likely to drive the Medical Face Mask Market over the study period.

Therefore, the aforementioned factors, such as increasing surgical procedures and the growing burden of infections, are likely to raise the need for disposable face masks, which are expected to boost the Disposable Face Mask Market over the forecast period. However, local production and supply chain issues are likely to impede market growth over the forecast period.
