Market Driver :

Strong Utilization of Antimicrobial in Disease Prevention to Improve Business Prospects

The increasing application of antimicrobial coatings in healthcare facilities can be a vital factor in inflating the demand of the market. For instance, Healthcare-related infections (HCAI), also known as nosocomial infections lead to a high rate of morbidity and mortality in patients. As per the World Health Organization, Fact Sheet, Hundreds of millions of patients are affected by healthcare-associated infections worldwide each year, leading to significant mortality and financial losses for health systems. The rising cases of HCAI in the developing nations will create opportunities for the market. The World Health Organization, states in high-income countries, approximately 30% of patients in intensive care units (ICU) are affected by at least one healthcare-associated infection. Likewise, the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) estimates that about 4.1 million acute care patients develop an HCAI annually, with 37,000 deaths directly attributed to HCAI. The increasing cognizance of HCAI and pandemics such as COVID-19 will lead to the improvement in the safety and hygiene of patients in hospitals, which, in turn, will aid the expansion of the market. Also, the rising concertation to prevent the growth of microbes, which can lead to infections or cause product degradation will foster healthy growth of the market.

Market Restraint :

Hazardous Effects of Antimicrobial on the Environment to Restrict Growth

The toxic agents found in antimicrobial coatings can lead to severe environmental damage, which can consequently dampen the growth of the market. Active ingredients released from the coatings end up in different locations, thus leading to microbiota exposure and potential adversities for the environment. The rising knowledge of antimicrobial coatings risk-factors is likely to dwindle the market revenue during the forecast period. The biocidal products are potentially lethal, i.e. they exhibit toxic properties to various types of cells or organisms due to inhibition of target organism proliferation such as pathogenic bacteria or microorganism biofilms.

Regional Analysis :

Favorable Laws and Policies will Strengthen Market in North America

The market size in North America stood at USD 1,383.5 million in 2019. North America and is likely to remain dominant during the forecast period. The growth in the region is attributed to the rising demand for antimicrobial coatings in indoor air / HVAC and medical applications. Favorable Healthcare Policies and laws will further promote the market in North America.  The rising demand from the food & beverages and apparel industry in the U.S. and Canada will support the growth in North America. The increasing living standards of people along with the rising healthcare spending in the U.S. will further aid the development of the market.  The growing innovation in the healthcare industry and the growing production of processed foods will contribute positively to the market in North America.
