Medical plastics are largely used across the healthcare sector for manufacturing diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices, equipment, surgical/non-surgical instruments, labware, prosthetics, implants, and healthcare packaging products. These offer various advantages over conventional materials such as metals, paper, and glass, including light wei...

The global medical plastics market includes commodity thermoplastics (CTP), engineering thermoplastics (ETP), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), thermosets, and high performance polymers (HPP). By end-product family type, the market has been divided into devices, equipment and instruments (DEI), prosthetics & implants (P&I), and healthcare packaging (...

The research assesses growth opportunities for medical food ingredients across key therapeutic applications and regional markets. Medical foods, also referred to as Foods for Special Medical Purposes (FSMPs), occupy a distinct regulatory and commercial position between pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, addressing disease-specific nutritional requ...

Rigid packaging is packaging that maintains its shape and form, exhibiting no or limited elastic deformation, and is generally self-supporting and free-standing. Plastic is the material of choice because it is lighter, versatile, chemically inert, durable, and inexpensive. Packaging also plays a critical role in marketing. Eye-catching packaging...

Adoption rates of drone platforms for medical deliveries have grown considerably following the COVID-19 pandemic, a period in which policymakers temporarily enabled the use of unmanned aerial systems (UASs) for contactless deliveries. Data gathered from these trials has helped regulators across the world develop a coherent regulatory framework capa...

The recyclable and biodegradable plastics sector is entering into a new phase focused on application-specific circularity, system-fit design, and credible end-of-life solutions. Recyclable platforms such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene (PE), and polypropylene (PP) are growing rapidly due to improved collection systems and increase...
