Non-PVC IV Bags Market: Rapidly Evolving Industry…… COVID-19….
The global non-PVC IV
bags market size is expected
to reach USD 2.29 billion by 2025,
according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. globally, increasing
demand for safer medical packaging and strict regulations against usage of PVC
are the key factors anticipated to boost the demand for non-PVC alternatives.
Extensive research and developments for novel alternatives are expected to fuel
the growth further.
Increasing hospital admissions in Western
countries has led to a surge in demand for IV fluids for patient treatment and
drug administration. Manufacturers of prefilled IV bags are expected to stock
up on empty IV bags sourced from Asian countries, most of which are PVC bags,
at a lower cost. However, some critical drugs such as Isosorbide Dinitrate used
to relieve chest pain symptoms in patients, are incompatible with PVC IV bags.
Drugs that react to PVC are therefore required to be bagged in non-PCV
materials that allow for safe packaging and consumption. As the demand for
drugs used in the treatment of SARS-COV rises, the demand for non-PVC bags is
expected to closely follow from IV and drug manufacturers. We are working to
account for this surge in our estimates. The report will account for Covid-19
as a key market contributor.
As per the current market scenario,
usage of non-PVC IV bags is limited to fields such as chemotherapy and
parenteral nutrition. With the introduction of different types of alternatives
such as ethylene vinyl acetate and polypropylene, PVC packaging is anticipated
to be replaced by non-PVC alternatives. These materials can be used for
specific purposes such as cold/frozen storage and customized mixtures. The
non-PVC packaging market is expected to witness lucrative growth during the forecast
period owing to the versatility of applications.
Demand for non-PVC plastics is
increasing in medical as well as non-medical industries owing to stricter
regulations against their usage since their disposal can cause high level of
pollution. The changing trend of using non-PVC materials provides a huge scope
for growth, thus attracting manufacturers and investors to this market.

The demand for non-PVC IV bags is
increasing in parenteral nutrition services. They also have high demand for
multichambered bags; as the formulation differs from patient to patient. The scope
for customized IV bags providers is anticipated to increase with the
development of personalized therapeutic solutions.
Further key findings from the report suggest:
·
Single chamber bags dominated
the market by capturing 64.6% of the total market share in 2016. High usage in
IV drips and other mixtures is a principal factor that can be attributed to the
large share.
·
Ethylene vinyl acetate captured
the largest share in 2016 and this dominance is expected to continue over the
forecast period. Higher safety and utility of its usage in frozen mixtures
including in blood banks are expected to have a high impact on the segment
growth.
·
The demand for copolyester
ether is expected to showcase highest growth during the forecast period due to
advantages such as transparency, durability, and chemical resistance.
·
North America dominated the
non-PVC IV bags market and is expected to dominate throughout the forecast
period. On the other hand, Asia Pacific is expected to showcase fastest growth,
fueled by factors such as emergence of a large number of local players and
increasing foreign direct investment.

Key players include ANGIPLAST
PVT. LTD.; RENOLIT; Shanghai Xin Gen Eco-Technologies Co., Ltd; PolyCine GmbH;
Jiangxi Sanxin Medtec Co., Ltd.; Kraton Corporation; Pfizer, Inc. (Hospira).;
Baxter; and B. Braun Melsungen AG
The
global non-PVC IV bags market size was estimated at USD 1.11 billion in 2016.
Growing demand for preventive measures against errors, such as delivery of
inappropriate dose, and increasing demand for innovative IV containers are some
of the principal market drivers. The problems associated with
traditionally-used IV containers include interaction of drugs & packing
materials and difficulty in transport, handling, & disposal of containers.
Majority of these problems can be minimized by adopting non-PVC IV bags. Thus,
the demand for the same is expected to rise significantly during the forecast
period.
The
demand for non-PVC IV bags is high in oncology treatment including chemotherapy
and targeted drug delivery. Many agents used under these therapies are
susceptible to interaction with the plasticizers and tend to convert into
harmful agents. This incompatibility can be minimized by the use of containers
without plasticizers.
Such
containers are usually made of alternative materials such as polypropylene and
ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). The development of novel materials as well as
availability of these bags in different designs are the factors expected to
boost growth by replacing glass and PVC containers.
The
other factors supporting the market growth include growing reach of the local
manufacturers in international market, strict regulations against usage and
disposal of PVC, and healthcare infrastructure development in developing
countries. The rising number of hospitals and advancements in the quality of
services provided in them are the factors which can be directly attributable to
the market growth.
