Nanometals Market COVID-19 Impact

There is no doubt that the COVID-19 lockdown has impacted the nanometals industry. Strict lockdowns all over the world interrupted the entire supply and trade of raw materials from manufacturing hubs like China, and India. However, the nanometals industry started gaining momentum during the end of 2020 due to increasing demand for vaccines and drugs such as Hydroxychloroquine and Remdesivir that were used to fight against COVID-19. For instance, according to a research report published on PLOS medicine, the cumulative volume of antibiotics that were sold in 2020 was about 16,290 million doses. Likewise, Gilead Sciences reported that its total revenue increased by 17% after incorporating the sales of coronavirus treatment Remdesivir. The increasing demand for drugs required for the treatment of COVID-19 along with increasing demand for vaccines to be manufactured in bulk in many countries across the world resulted in the growth of the nanometals industry as it plays an important role in the production of these drugs and vaccines. Nanometals can be customized for targeted delivery of drugs, and also help improve bioavailability, along with providing a controlled release of medication from a single dose. All of these factors have eventually led to the growth of the nanometals market and it is expected to rise in the upcoming years as well.

Nanometals Market Segment Analysis – By Type

Silver nanometals held the largest share in the Nanometals Market in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.2 % between 2022 and 2027. Silver nanometal usually comprises of stabilized silver salts, silver nanoparticles, composites of polymer and metal oxides, along with activated carbon materials, and silver-impregnated zeolite. The anti-inflammation, anti-bacterial, and wound healing properties of silver nanometals make it ideal for a wide range of applications such as wound and burn treatment, dental work, surgeries, and biomedical devices. Hence, these factors are most likely to increase their demand in the upcoming years.

Nanometals Market Segment Analysis – By End-Use Industry

The Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Industry held the largest share in the Nanometals Market in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.5 % between 2022 and 2027. The major reason behind this is their wide usage and effectiveness in the development of better and safer drugs. Initially, healthcare professionals had recommended antiviral drugs as the major mean of protection against COVID-19, especially because of their effectiveness in resolving pneumonia and other respiratory illnesses caused by the virus. According to recent research published on Springer in February 2021, the use of nanometals have effectively proven its value through its application drug delivery and nanosensors in other diseases. Likewise, it also states that nanometals along with their components can play a significant role in several phases of prevention, diagnosis, treatment, vaccination, and research associated with COVID-19. Nanometal-based antimicrobial technology when combined with personal equipment proved to provide greater safety of healthcare workers as well. Moreover, nanometals help in facilitating the enhancement of pharmacological drug properties as well.

Since nanometals have improved solubility, multi-functionality, can be customized for targeted delivery of drugs, and also help improve bioavailability, along with providing a controlled release of medication from a single dose, the use of nanometals required for the production of antiviral drugs, and the vaccine is also expected to rise significantly, which can help boost the market growth.

Nanometals Market Segment Analysis – By Geography

The Asia Pacific held the largest share in the Nanometals Market in 2021 up to 30%. A recent study indicates that the total sales revenue of traditional pharmaceuticals in China amounted to about $28.8 billion in 2019 and is expected to increase in the upcoming years. Likewise, recent reports from India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF) shows that the Indian pharmaceutical sector supplies over 50% of the global demand for various vaccines, 40% of the generic demand for the US, and 25% of all medicines for the UK during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It also states that India holds the second-largest share of the pharmaceutical and biotech workforce in the world. According to the Indian Economic Survey 2021, the domestic pharmaceutical market is estimated to grow 3x in the next decade.
