Globally rising temperatures, air pollution, dust, and smoke can cause skin infections and itchiness, which has raised the market for facial mask products. Clinically recommended skincare treatments called facial masks are mostly utilised in hospitals and clinics that specialise in skincare.

The need for facial mask products has increased as cases of skin-related issues such rashes, dark bags under the eyes, oily skin, and skin ageing issues rise.

  • Around 938 new individual cases of work-related epidermal skin disorders were reported in the United Kingdom in 2018, according to the Health and Safety Executive. Skincare product demand has increased as people's awareness of cleanliness and hygiene has increased.

After the COVID-19 outbreak, there is a daily rise in the demand for facial masks market. Face masks are mostly utilised as personal protective equipment (PPE) to stop or impede the spread of diseases like SARS-CoV-2. Hence, these face masks have been used as a health management measure for both the general public and individuals.

How Can the Global Market Grow?

Increase in the Number of Respiratory Disorders

The need for non-invasive ventilation masks and circuits is rising because asthma is the most common respiratory disease worldwide, ahead of COPD, acute lower respiratory tract infections, and other conditions.

  • For instance, according to the Global Impact of Asthma in Adult Populations. Ann Glob Health. 2019, asthma is the most prevalent chronic disease, affecting an estimated 334 million people.

In order to prevent viruses and bacteria from entering the mouth and nose, a surgical mask serves to stop large-particle drops, splashes, sprays, or splatters. The public exposure of saliva and respiratory secretions may be decreased with the aid of surgical masks. As a result, surgical masks are frequently used in the healthcare sector.

A surgical mask does not successfully filter inhaled microscopic particles, fumes, or vapours; it simply acts as a barrier against large-particle droplets. The main purposes of a surgical mask are to safeguard sterile or disinfected medical equipment and supplies as well as to shield patients and healthcare professionals from individuals who may have respiratory infections. As a result, throughout the projection period, there will be an increase in demand for surgical masks.

To help stop the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, many social media sites and mobile apps have made an effort to encourage the wearing of face masks in public and communal situations. The world's largest social media platform Facebook works with the World Health Organization, and has provided free ad space, to assist with spreading awareness of the COVID-19 outbreak.

The company changed the user interfaces of popular social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram by adding notifications above the feeds section, advising users to wear face masks, and making other recommendations to stop the spread of COVID-19. These suggestions are CDC recommendations, making them very advantageous for customers.

Can the Market Growth Be Affected in Any Way?

Variations in the Cost of Raw Materials.

One of the main factors limiting the growth of the face mask market is changing raw material prices. The metal strips, nonwoven fabrics and ear loops used to make face masks are all products of the mining and oil and gas sectors. Early in 2020, supply chain disruptions and subpar industrial output had an influence on the flow of raw materials, but these problems persisted into 2021. The profitability, cash flows, and earnings of businesses in the face mask industry have all suffered as a result of changes in the price of raw materials.

In the global market for facial masks, fraudulent schemes, fake respirators, and misrepresentations of regulatory certifications are all too prevalent. One of the leading manufacturers of respirators, 3M, was a victim of fraud at the start of the COVID19 pandemic. The false Fake N95 Scam on Amazon was finally put an end to legally by the corporation in August 2020 (after more than 5 months). To stop unauthorised profiteering from the epidemic in 3M's name, 18 lawsuits have been brought in the U.S. and Canada to address fraud, price gouging, and counterfeiting.

  • Around 7,000 listings with offers for fake or replica products have been removed from international e-commerce platforms by 3M, along with over 10,000 false or misleading social media posts.

The market expansion for facial masks is being severely hampered by inexpensive, low-quality products without authorization.

  • In January 2021, a new reusable, three-dimensional knitted face mask from Honeywell with interchangeable filters was launched.
