Growth Drivers

Increasing air pollution propelling the growth of India face mask market

Air pollution is growing at an alarming rate in India owing to rapid industrialization, increasing number of vehicles, and the release of harmful gases into the environment. According to the World Bank, air pollution levels in India are among the highest in the world with 100% of the Indian population exposed to unhealthy levels of ambient PM 2.5 – the most harmful pollutant - emanating from multiple sources.  Additionally, the World Bank reports that an estimated USD 30-78 billion was lost in labor income due to diseases caused by PM 2.5 pollution.

Rapidly declining air quality is creating major health issues for people in India. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution can cause serious health effects, including asthma, cardiovascular risks, chronic headaches, and eye irritation. World Bank further reveals that ambient and indoor air pollution is estimated to have caused 1.7 million premature deaths in India in 2019. Thus, the severe effects of increasing air pollution are creating a growing demand for face masks in the country and are driving the growth of India face mask market.

Impact of COVID-19 in the industry

Within the next three months, the country registered a surplus of face masks in the country and asked the government to allow face mask exports to manage the inventory. The cases of COVID-19 are surging once again in the country due to the Omicron variant and the demand for face masks is expected to go up again in the near future to prevent another severe wave of the COVID-19 in the country.
