High Spending on Aesthetics in North America Favorable for Global Facial Injectables Market

Since time immemorial, to look young and beautiful has always been an important consideration for human beings. In this pursuit, the modern era of scientific treatments for aesthetics and body rejuvenation is documented to have begun in the late 1800s. 

The early technique, known as soft-tissue augmentation, involved the use of transplanted fat to repair cosmetic deformities. Since then, physicians have been on a consistent quest to find the ideal filler substance for such purposes. Moreover, ongoing research and technological advancements have paved the way for noninvasive procedures to take over from traditionally performed face-lift surgeries.

Hence, driven by patient demand for facial beauty treatments, combined with increasing preference for non-surgical cosmetic procedures, the demand for facial aesthetic procedures is set for noteworthy growth in the foreseeable future. Facial injectables, which constitute an important segment of facial aesthetic treatments, will exhibit notable demand, with the facial injectables market expected to grow at an impressive 14.6 % CAGR from 2014 to 2020, as projected by Transparency Market Research.

What are Dermal/Facial Fillers Used for?

Dermal fillers such as collagen, botulinum toxin, particle and polymer fillers, and hyaluronic acid are meant to reduce facial lines and to give plump to the face. These are injectable compounds that can be safely injected below the skin surface to treat skin depressions. The use of these compounds helps raise the skin level, add volume to it, and restore a supple, youthful skin in minutes.

With aging, facial tissue tends to lose subcutaneous fat. As a result, facial muscles come in close contact with the skin surface, leading to crow’s feet and smile lines to be visible. In addition, with aging, facial skin also stretches to some extent, augmenting the facial volume loss. 

Some of the processes dermal fillers are suited for are plumping thin lips, diminishing facial creases and wrinkles, improving shallow contours, and enhancing the look of recessed scars. Dermal fillers work on early signs of aging or as an additional component of facial rejuvenation surgery.

New Product Launch of Facial Injectables Raises Competitive Pressure in North America 

Presently, North America dominates the global facial injectables market. The region accounted for 40.9% of the global market in 2013. The numerous reasons for the large market share of the region are its highly advanced healthcare infrastructure, high healthcare spending by both patients and the government, reimbursement coverage, increasing consumer awareness about beauty products and the advantages of facial injectables, and a large geriatric population base, among others. 

However, the 2008 economic recession led to a large slump in the facial injectables market in the region. Thereafter, with overall economic recovery, the facial injectables market has experienced notable growth. According to analysts’ estimates, by 2016, the sales of dermal filler products and botulinum toxin (BTX) will experience high growth due to continued demand for aesthetic procedures.

In 2011, Merz Pharmaceuticals launched two new products, Belotero and Xeomin, which are a dermal filler and BTX, respectively. The availability of a large product range for both physicians and patients to choose from has altered the competitive landscape of the North America facial injectables market. New product launches, combined with competitive pricing pressure, have been the reason for the strong growth of the facial injectables market in North America.

Nevertheless, increasing patient awareness about aesthetics and the continual demand for facial injectable procedures has driven unit sales, which in turn has facilitated the expansion of the markets for both dermal fillers and BTX in the region.  

The Mutually Beneficial Relationship between Superabsorbent Polymers and Diapers

The global superabsorbent polymers (SAP) market will thrive in the coming years due to the rising demand from its leading application segment – diapers. The demand for superabsorbent polymers is high in the manufacture of baby diapers, feminine hygiene products, and adult incontinence products. This demand is projected to grow and evolve in the coming few years. However, before we look into this shift in demand, let us look at how this mutually beneficial relationship between SAP and diapers started.

How did the Relationship between SAP and Diapers Begin?

Till the 1980s, cellulosics or other fiber-based substances were used as water absorbing materials. The water retention capacity of such materials was 20 times their weight, at best. In the 1960s, though, the USDA was conducting research on materials that would improve the water conservation level in soils. They invented a resin-based substance grafted of acrylonitrile polymer onto the backbone of starch molecule. This hydrolyzed product possessed a water absorption capacity of 400 times its weight. Furthermore, this new gel substance did not release liquid water, a significant advantage over its fiber-based counterparts.

This substance was called ‘Super Slurper’ and its know-how was shared by the USDA to many companies in the USA for further development. During the early 1970s, this superabsorbent polymer was commercially applied for the first time, not for its originally intended use of soil conservation, but for making disposable hygienic products such as adult incontinence products and feminine sanitary napkins.

Rising Demand for Diapers and Thriving Superabsorbent Polymers Industry

The global diapers market is driven by the rising number of adults using diapers in home healthcare, institutional care facilities, and hospitals. Several diaper makers have launched products that help adults with conditions such as urinary incontinence. On the other hand, the demand for baby diapers is driven by the growing urbanization and rising disposable incomes, increasingly young maturing age among females, the growing number of female workers, and the decreasing infant mortality rate. Backed by these trends, the global diapers market is projected to be valued at more than US$63 bn by 2017.

By application, the global superabsorbent polymers (SAP) market is segmented into baby diapers, feminine hygiene products, adult incontinence products, and others such as medical, agriculture, and paper packaging. The global SAP market is led by the baby diaper sector, which held a massive 74% market share in 2013.

Future of Relationship between Diapers and Superabsorbent Polymers is Bright

The baby diapers segment is projected to emerge as the fastest-growing segment in the global superabsorbent polymers (SAP) market. This promises a bright future for the relationship between the diapers industry and SAP market.

How are the Declining Crude Oil Prices Impacting Global Natural Oil Polyol Market?

Polyol is the most important raw material required for the production of polyurea and polyuretha. It is derived from a nontraditional source – natural oils. Traditionally, petroleum and petroleum-derived feedstock formed the primary source for the production of polyols. Polyols find an extensive range of applications in industries such as paints and coatings, construction, and automotive. 

The interest in using biobased polyols, especially the ones derived from natural oils has seen a significant rise in the past few years owing to two chief reasons: extreme rise in crude oil prices in the past decade and environmental concerns regarding non-degradable nature of petro-based polyurethane products.

Browse Natural Oil Polyol Market Report with Full TOC at http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/natural-oil-polyol-market.html

How Extreme Rise in Crude Oil Prices Paved Way for Natural Oil Polyols  

Of late, the steeply rising crude oil prices globally have paved the way for the introduction of an alternate source of raw material for the production of polyol. Especially in the past decade, when crude oil prices saw a dramatic rise from nearly US$00 per barrel in 2000 to nearly US$130 per barrel in the middle of 2008, the need for finding an alternative for petroleum and petroleum-derived feedstock was felt to be most pressing. 

The adoption of natural oil polyols in these circumstances was the need of the period. Environmental concerns regarding the non-biodegradable nature of petro-based polyols also encouraged the adoption of natural oil polyols. This has led to the formation of a billion dollar industry. A market research report, published by the market research firm Transparency Market Research, states that the market for natural oil polyols had a valuation of US$3.88 billion in 2013. The report projects a good growth trajectory for the market’s future over the period 2014-20. According to the report, the market will expand at a 9.3% CAGR and rise to US$7.22 billion by 2020. It should be remembered however, that this forecast was based at a time when prices of crude oil in the global market were still high, almost double of what they are now.  

Will the Current Low Prices Prompt Polyol Producers to go Back to the Petroleum Industry for Feedstock?

Chances are ripe. The rapidly declining prices of crude oil since the beginning of this year have changed the overall dynamics of many industries. As oil companies continue to reduce oil prices to sustain the tough times, an industry such as polyol, which primarily made its move to natural oil feedstock due to extreme rise in crude oil prices, has every chance of moving back to its traditional, most-trusted source – petroleum. Consistently dropping crude oil prices are definitely attracting industries that source a variety of raw materials from the oil industry, and the situation can very much impact the natural oil polyol market negatively.

But it also needs to be remembered that the price fluctuations in the crude oil market is nothing new. Even if the market for natural oil polyol follows a rough growth path for some time starting from now, the market has every chance of recovering its proceeds in the long run. The added sustainability granted to polyurethane products by natural oil polyols hints the bright future of these substances.

As the world begins realizing the added benefits of natural oil polyols above the polyols based on petroleum products, regulations mandating the use of the former may also follow soon. What businesses in the global natural oil polyol market need now is to have faith in the growing awareness of industries and consumers about the need for sustainable and bio-degradable products. After all, the times when the world will demand for everything that is ‘green’ is not very far away.

Reprocessed Medical Devices Market to Register Rapid Growth as Reducing Medical Waste Becomes Priority

Reprocessing of medical devices as a concept is not one coined recently. It has always remained a significant part of the medical device lifecycle in developed and emerging economies alike. Reprocessing of medical devices refers to the method of testing, disinfecting, cleaning, sterilizing, remanufacturing, packaging, and then labelling used or expired but undamaged medical devices, the process being intended to make them patient-ready and at a much lower cost than new devices. 

The demand for reprocessed medical devices has significantly increased over the last few years. However, the practice in developing nations is solely aimed at reducing supply costs incurred by hospitals, which often compromises patients’ safety. Several research publications on the medical devices market indicate that until a decade back, medical device reprocessing was mostly performed within the hospital setting by hospital staffs. Not many of them take a note of the proper guidelines and regulations before performing the method. To curb such incidences, the FDA has introduced reprocessing guidelines, which has also positively impacted the market for reprocessed medical devices around the world. The promulgation of FDA guidelines on medical device reprocessing has encouraged many third party vendors to venture into the industry and hospitals have also become more likely to outsource medical device reprocessing to qualified third party service providers.

Reprocessing Instructions Laid Down by the FDA

To ensure that medical device reprocessing does not compromise patients’ safety, the FDA has formulated six instructions. The instructions laid down by the FDA include:

1. FDA mandates labelling of reprocessed medical devices to address all six criteria it laid down for clear reprocessing. This is intended to help users understand and correctly comply with the reprocessing instructions. 

2. The instructions for reprocessing medical devices recommend users to thoroughly clean the device. Cleaning, therefore, is the very first step that should be described in the labelling as part of the processing instruction. 

3. The reprocessing instructions included in the labelling should also indicate the appropriate microbicidal process to be followed for the device. This criterion also requires the instructions to be consistent with the prevailing infection control principles. 

4. Players venturing into the market must ensure that reprocessing instructions are technically feasible and include only medical accessories or devices that are legally marketed. 

Browse Market Research Press Release of Reprocessed Medical Devices Market: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/pressrelease/reprocessed-medical-devices.htm

5. The reprocessing instructions included in the packaging must be comprehensive. The users should precisely understand how to perform the complete process safely and effectively. 

6. Reprocessing instructions should be mentioned in an understandable, clear, and legible manner. Every step must to be followed for reprocessing must be mentioned in a sequential order. 

Reprocessed medical devices are available at a much reduced cost, which helps hospitals and healthcare organizations address the issue of medical wastage in conjunction with the increasing adoption of these devices. The Association of Medical Device Reprocessors (AMDR) says that a typical hospital can save US$500,000 to US$2 million every year by using reprocessed medical devices. This is a primary factor boosting the rapid development of the global reprocessed medical devices market. 

According to Transparency Market Research, the global reprocessed medical devices market, which stood at US$0.78 billion in 2013, is expected to reach US$2.58 billion by 2020. If the figures hold true, the global reprocessed medical devices market will exhibit a healthy 19.3% CAGR during the period. 

What Makes Synthetic Paper the Ideal Printing Solution Today?

Synthetic paper, most commonly manufactured from petroleum derivatives, displays characteristics similar to plastic films and possesses numerous advantages over traditional paper. A report by Transparency Market Research pegs the value of the global synthetic paper market at US$212.7 million in 2013, growing to US$388 million by 2020 at a 7.0% CAGR during that period. 

Synthetic paper today has become the go-to choice of printing and labeling solutions. Here are some key reasons why users across several industries are opting for synthetic paper.

Moisture and Water Resistance 

Even the best laminated materials are sometimes prone to moisture and water threatens to leak through the toughest of barriers when it comes to paper. Synthetic paper steers clear from harm even when it comes in contact with water. Water-friendly uses of synthetic paper range from plant tags that promise to endure regular watering or labels on surfing or scuba diving equipment.

Durability in terms of Tear Resistance 

Items such as menu cards in restaurants, identity cards such as driving license, and runners’ bibs need to not only bear the test of time and wear and tear, but also need to continue to look presentable under extreme pressure or constant use. Synthetic paper is tear-resistant and is undeniably durable under the harshest of conditions. 

Erasability

Synthetic paper is perfect for brainstorming ideas or creative meetings because it is pencil erasable. Taking notes, creating a storyboard, making blueprints or maps, or simply doodling – synthetic paper offers users the ideal canvas that is not bulky and cumbersome like whiteboards. 

Inexpensive yet just as Useful as Laminated Paper

Lamination is often a solution that spikes costs. The need for a smooth coated surface on printed projects is served by synthetic paper, especially since it suits the budget. Synthetic paper has all the required qualities that lamination offers: water resistance and durability, and that too while providing savings. This brings down the overall labor as well as production cost.

Reduction in Production Cost and Time

Building on the previous point, using traditional paper for different purposes such as making labels, printing cards, making brochures or menus, printed projects and posters, and signage, excludes the added cost, time, and effort of getting it laminated or coating it with a more durable and water- and tear-resistant material. Synthetic paper offers a wide range of benefits of vinyl or laminated materials while saving precious resources.

All-Weather Friend

Apart from being water-resistant, synthetic paper can also endure all types of weather, be it harsh sunlight and heat, rains and thunderstorms, or strong winds and snow. The surface of synthetic paper can simply be wiped clean, without any color fading or tears. Traditionally printed materials, on the other hand, fail to stand similar tests of time or weather.
