Global Protective Face Mask Market is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 7.1 % over the forecast period 2021-2027. Protective face masks are used to protect individuals from inhaling harmful particles present in the atmosphere. These masks usually consist of three layers which block the particles from entering the nasal cavity and also stops the exit of fluids and secretions from the mouth and nose. One of the central reason driving the growth is the increased air pollution. The pollutants in the air penetrate the lungs and increase the chances of cardiovascular diseases. Protective face mask prevents the inhalation of these harmful substances. These face masks are highly used in the urban areas where the air quality index has decreased sharply and pollution levels have increased a higher level. Amid the pandemic, the demand for protective masks has driven the growth of the sector. According to WHO, in 2019, 1.9 million people died due to COVID-19. But, higher cost of better protective masks and lack of awareness in underdeveloped countries hampers the growth of the market. Also, stringent rules and laws implemented by government bodies in order to control rising number of deaths and severe health issues to general public spreading through flu, viral infections, and respiratory diseases across the globe is an opportunity for the sector to flourish because this will increase the use of protective facemask.
