Hospital Gowns Industry Overview
The global hospital gowns market size was valued at USD 4.3 billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.88% from 2022 to 2030.
The growing number of surgeries globally is a key factor driving the growth of the market during the forecast period. Increasing incidences of Healthcare-associated Infections (HAIs) due to a lack of precaution and sanitation is one of the leading factors contributing to the market growth. The U.S. dominated the market with the highest revenue share of 82.5% in 2021. According to the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), roughly 19.2 million procedures were performed in ambulatory care settings within the U.S. in 2018. Hospital gowns protect patients from nosocomial infections to a significant extent; hence, surgeons advise patients to wear them. Market expansion is projected to be fueled by these reasons.

The COVID-19 outbreak is expected to have a substantial impact on the hospital gowns market. The COVID-19 pandemic, as well as an overall increase in hospital admissions around the world, has boosted the demand for medical disposables. To meet rising worldwide demand, the World Health Organization (WHO) has urged the industry and governments to increase the production of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), such as respirators, hospital gowns, gloves, aprons, face shields, surgical masks, and goggles, by 40.0%.
The increased prevalence of healthcare-associated infections is expected to drive market growth. For instance, as per the Healthcare-Associated Infections in 2020, every year, around one in every 25 hospital patients acquires at least one HAI. Hospital gowns offer general anti-contamination protection and can help reduce the incidence of HAIs. They can also keep bacterial and other microbial diseases from entering the body of a patient.
Antimicrobial resistance, adoption of unhealthy sedentary lifestyles, alcohol consumption, and smoking are some of the key factors contributing to the rise in hospital admissions. According to the International Diabetes Federation [IDF], 700 million adults worldwide will develop diabetes by 2045. Furthermore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that more than 34 million Americans, or about 11% of the population, had diabetes in 2020. Since a hospital gown is one of the most important prerequisites for hospital admissions, an increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to boost the market growth.
Increasing hospital admissions driven by the rising incidences of accidents such as trauma events, burns, and road accidents are anticipated to drive the market growth. For instance, as per the Joye Law Firm in 2020, on average, every year 450,000 burn injuries occur in the U.S., necessitating medical attention. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the incidence of burn wounds increased in 2017 in Finland, Australia, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, China, and the U.K. Furthermore, as per the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma, every year, approximately 1.3 million people die in road accidents around the world, equating to roughly 3,700 deaths every day.
Hospital gown manufacturing companies use unique and new technologies to design, produce and sell products to diverse end customers, based on the amount of protection required for distinct job risks. The majority of manufacturers have their original technology or licensed it from other industry participants.
The global market for hospital gowns is consolidating due to the rising popularity of medical consumables along with increased collaborations and agreements between diverse manufacturers. An increase in the number of hospital admissions due to the COVID-19 outbreak is anticipated to impel the market growth.
