Market Overview:
Disposable surgical sheets are sterile, single-use materials used during surgical procedures to provide protection and absorption. They are made up of non-woven materials like polypropylene, polyethylene and polyester. Disposable surgical sheets provide increased patient protection and safety as compared to reusable surgical drapes and sheets. They help prevent cross-contamination and spread of infection. Their porous structure enables absorption of fluids and prevents them from spreading to other surrounding areas. Their disposable nature eliminates washing and sterilization costs associated with reusable sheets.

Growing emphasis on infection control in healthcare settings is driving the demand for single-use sterile disposable surgical sheets. Risk of transmission of diseases through reusable surgical linens has led to higher adoption of disposable varieties. Increasing surgical procedures globally due to rising disease incidence and elderly population is also propelling the market growth. Major manufacturers are focused on development of technologically advanced disposable surgical sheets with properties like increased strength, absorbency and barrier effectiveness. They are utilizing new non-woven fabrication methods and raw materials to provide improved functionalities. This is expanding application areas of disposable surgical sheets in complex surgical specialties.
