Is there a recession ahead? Some doomsayers believe there is.
Economist Nouriel Roubini, who correctly predicted the 2008 financial crisis, sees a “long and ugly” recession occurring in the U.S. and globally at the end of 2022 that could last all of 2023. (He also has a new book to sell, so keep that in mind.)
The industrial disposable glove market has seen consistent double-digit growth over the last 40 years. Glove use for applications from plumbing to electrical to mechanical has increased annually.
There was a time that few if any workers in industrial settings wore disposable gloves. Many workers of a certain vintage still don’t, with a common complaint being that gloves restrict their range of motion and just don’t “feel right.”
It may have the distinction of being the original disposable glove material, but natural rubber latex often gets a bad rap.
The primary concern is about latex allergies. About 4% of the world’s population has some form of latex allergy. It is more problematic for health care workers, especially dentists and surgeons, because of repeat exposure to exam-grade latex gloves.

Restaurants are also looking to keep operating costs down, and distributors who can deliver value-oriented, effective products will have an upper hand in growing their customer base.
We’ve arrived at the halfway point of 2021. Unsurprisingly, the disposable glove market continues to be dynamic and unpredictable, thanks to—what else?—COVID-19.
Market conditions have changed in the last six months. Global demand for gloves, which more than doubled since the pandemic’s outbreak, has softened, especially in the United States.
