Silicone is the second-largest resin type in the overall medical adhesive tapes market
Silicone is the second-largest resin type in the overall medical adhesive tapes market as they can withstand higher temperatures than rubber-and acrylic-based medical adhesive tapes. Over the past few years, the demand for silicone medical adhesive tapes has increased in the stick-to-skin market of the medical sector. These tapes have lower peel adhesion compared to synthetic rubber and acrylic tapes. These tapes are widely used for fragile skin, such as infant babies and elderly patients with comorbidities causing the skin to be more delicate. These tapes are also useful for repeat application on the same portion of the skin.
Paper is the fastest-growing segment of the market during the forecast period
Paper is a widely used backing material that adheres lightly to an individuals skin. It is most widely used for people (adults and infants) with sensitive skin. These are widely used for applications such as dressing and fixation of tubes. These tapes provide excellent comfort compared to the fabric medical adhesive tapes. Hence, they find significant applications in cases involving elderly patients. These tapes are also preferred in cases involving frequent redressing of wounds. The paper backing material is eco-friendly; it can be easily recycled and re-pulped. Therefore, it is a good choice in regions with stringent environmental regulations, such as Europe and North America. The increasing awareness about adhesive tapes in different end-use industries has led tape manufacturers to focus on products that can replace other fastening systems.
These factors have increased the demand for low-cost backing material such as paper for manufacturing tapes, majorly in South American and Asia Pacific countries such as India, South Korea, China, and Indonesia.
