Global PVC glove sales have maintained steady growth in recent years. During the public health crisis, demand for protective equipment surged dramatically across healthcare professionals, service staff, and factory workers, triggering explosive growth in PVC glove sales. In 2023, global PVC glove sales volume reached approximately 277 billion pieces.
China stands as the world’s leading producer and exporter of PVC gloves, with its products primarily shipped to the United States, Europe, and Japan. In 2023, the U.S. remained China’s largest export market for PVC gloves, accounting for nearly 49% of total exports.
