The latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Nitrile Gloves Market Report by Type (Powder-free, Powdered), Product (Disposable, Durable), End User (Medical and Healthcare, Automotive, Oil and Gas, Food and Beverage, Metal and Machinery, Chemical and Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” finds that the global nitrile gloves market size reached USD 8.6 Billion in 2024. Nitrile gloves are produced from nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), a synthesized polymer formed through the combination of acrylonitrile (ACN) and butadiene. They are used to prevent microorganisms, including fungi, bacteria, and viruses. They are durable and economical, protect against infection and skin irritation, and minimize the risk of cuts, burns, and abrasions. In addition, they have high tensile strength and puncture, chemical, and oil resistance. As a result, nitrile gloves find extensive applications in the automotive, oil and gas, metal, and machinery, chemical, and petrochemical, pharmaceutical, tattoo parlors, food and beverage (F&B), beauty and cosmetics, and healthcare industries.
Global Nitrile Gloves Market Trends:
The market is primarily driven by the expanding healthcare industry and rising healthcare expenditure. This can be attributed to the increasing significance of workplace safety and the growing awareness regarding the harmful effect of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), including pneumonia, clostridium difficile, surgical site, and bloodstream infections. In addition, the sudden outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in increasing demand for nitrile gloves across the healthcare sector to prevent contamination from the virus. This, coupled with various benefits provided by nitrile gloves, such as less fiction, and longer shelf life, is contributing to the market growth. Moreover, the rising product adoption in the automotive sector to protect against sharp tools and edges, harmful chemicals, and substances represents another major growth-inducing factor. Besides this, the increasing utilization of nitrile gloves in the construction industry to handle corrosive and hazardous materials is providing a positive thrust to market growth. Along with this, nitrile gloves protect tattoo artists from bodily fluids while working with ink, adhesives, and needles. They are also used in salons or beauty parlors during manicures, pedicures, and piercings to prevent physical injuries from sharp equipment. This, coupled with extensive research and development (R&D) activities conducted by key players to launch powder-free nitrile gloves, which help enhance grip and reduce moisture, is also creating a positive market outlook. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach USD 14.2 Billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 5.39% during 2025-2033.
