Increased expenditure in R&D, owing to the growing competition and the development of environment-friendly methods of production, is one key trend in this market. Manufacturers have increased their emphasis on R&D owing to the rapid increase in the number of innovations in the Healthcare industry in recent years.

According to the report, an increase in demand for fluoropolymers in the Healthcare industry is one of the major drivers of the market. Plastics are being replaced by fluoropolymers in various traditional and advanced medical applications owing to their inability to conform to the physical and biocompatibility requirements of next generation drugs and devices. PTFE is progressively being used for this purpose owing to its low coefficient of friction.

Further, the report states that pricing constraints, owing to the highly competitive nature of the market and a shortage of raw materials, constitute one of the major challenges faced by the market. The expansion of production facilities of vendors present in developing countries such as India and China has further intensified the competition.
