The growing number of medical surgeries is expected to drive the expansion of the disposable hospital gowns market. Medical surgeries, or operations, are procedures performed by healthcare professionals to treat diseases, injuries, or other medical conditions through invasive methods. The increase in surgeries can be attributed to factors such as the aging population, the adoption of laparoscopic techniques, and a rise in joint replacement procedures. Disposable hospital gowns are widely used during surgeries to ensure sterility, protect both patients and healthcare providers from cross-contamination, and maintain a hygienic environment. For example, in June 2024, the Aesthetic Society, a US-based organization for aesthetic plastic surgery, reported that the total number of surgical procedures increased by 2.9% from 2022 to 2023. Among all types of surgeries, liposuction reached the highest number, with 394,527 surgeries performed in 2023.
Key players in the hospital gowns market are focused on innovation, particularly in products such as isolation gowns, which provide a protective barrier against fluids and infectious materials. Isolation gowns are worn by healthcare personnel to prevent the spread of infectious agents in healthcare settings.

These gowns offer high-level barrier protection, meeting stringent standards to safeguard healthcare personnel and patients from microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate matter. The Chemo Gown variant, also meeting AAMI Level 4 standards, is specifically designed for safe use during chemotherapy, addressing the specialized needs of oncology care.
