The global face mask market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. The face mask is a type of protective mask that is used to protect against several airborne diseases such as COVID-19, influenza, chickenpox, mumps as well as measles, among others by covering the half-face by protecting the nose, jawline, and mouth. The major factor driving the growth of the global face mask market during the forecast is the increasing prevalence of such diseases across the globe. Additionally, the market is also growing due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019 coupled with the rise in consumer awareness about the importance of wearing a face mask. Furthermore, the rising social media marketing to encourage a positive attitude towards wearing masks is also boosting the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Face Mask Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the global face mask market owing to the increasing demand for a face mask during the pandemic. The face mask was used to prevent or slow down the transmission of life-threatening COVID-19 infections and was employed by the government as a mandatory public and personal health control measure against the spread of COVID-19. Additionally, as the pandemic spread to over 213 countries, governments across the globe restricted the exports of face masks to fulfil domestic demand through increased production which in turn increased the demand for face masks in the import-dependent countries which in turn offered lucrative growth opportunities for the companies to increase their production capacity. Furthermore, as of May 2020, more than 75 countries or 88% of the population live in the countries with the mandated use of face masks as a control measure for the COVID-19 pandemic.
