DUBLIN, Apr 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Gloves Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The global gloves market to grow at a CAGR of 10.50% during the period 2017-2021.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global gloves market for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated from the sales of gloves at the manufacturer level. The report also includes a discussion of the Key vendors operating in this market. The major industries that use gloves for protection of personnel include oil & gas, military, chemicals, construction, medical and manufacturing.

The latest trend gaining momentum in the market is use of green and recyclable material. Glove manufacturers continue to emphasize on green manufacturing processes, technologies, and sustainability. The hand protection product manufacturers, regulators, and marketers are stressing on green manufacturing such as the use of green resources like sun and wind power. This can minimize the costs of the use of water and decreases consumption of non-productive electricity.

According to the report, one of the major drivers for this market is increase in rubber production. The global natural rubber production is rising by 0.2% every year. The production went up in three countries - Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam, but fell in China, Malaysia, and India. The major increase was witnessed in EMEA where the production of natural rubber grew by 6% in 2015 compared to 2014. Production in APAC grew by 1% and by 0.3% in the Americas during the same period.

Further, the report states that one of the major factors hindering the growth of this market is use of chemicals in glove production. Gloves are subjected to a series of steps before the final product comes. The process begins right from the collection of latex from rubber trees to packaging and shipment of the gloves. Usually, the manufacturing plants are located near the rubber plantations to save on logistics. Though the process may differ in terms of the material of the glove, the overall procedure followed is the same.
