South Korea Disposable Face Mask Market Report and Forecast 2023-2028


Market Outlook

According to the report by Expert Market Research (EMR), the South Korea disposable face mask market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% between 2023 and 2028. Aided by the rising incidence of hospital-acquired illnesses, increased hygiene-related awareness, and the rising frequency of airborne diseases, the market is expected to grow significantly by 2028.

Disposable face masks are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to prevent the spread of infections, particularly through airborne means. They are made from breathable materials that offer high filtration efficiency and are generally designed for single use. Due to their ease of use and disposal, they have become an indispensable tool in various sectors, including healthcare, food processing, manufacturing, and personal care.

The South Korea disposable face mask market growth is being propelled by heightened consciousness about the health risks associated with exposure to airborne particles and pathogens. This awareness has been amplified by the Covid-19 pandemic, leading to a surge in demand for disposable face masks from the general public. Moreover, the increasing instances of other airborne diseases have prompted people to incorporate the use of masks into their daily routine, thereby fuelling the market growth.

In addition to the rising health awareness, the expanding applications of disposable face masks in various industries are also playing a crucial role in boosting the South Korea disposable face mask market development. In the healthcare sector, disposable face masks are essential for preventing the transmission of infections between medical professionals and patients. Meanwhile, in the food processing and manufacturing sectors, these masks are used to ensure product hygiene and safety. The cosmetic industry also makes use of disposable face masks for skin treatments, further increasing the product demand.

The South Korean government's proactive measures to ensure the safety of its citizens amidst health crises have also contributed to the South Korea disposable face mask market expansion. These include regulations mandating the use of face masks in public places, and initiatives to ensure a stable supply of masks.

Further, the culture of mask-wearing is expected to persist due to the uncertainty surrounding potential new disease outbreaks and the continued importance of health and hygiene practices. Furthermore, innovations in mask design and material to improve comfort and filtration efficiency are expected to provide further impetus to the South Korea disposable face mask market growth.
