The Rising Global Demand for Disposable Gloves
The coronavirus pandemic is far from over, as there are many challenges associated with the introduction and distribution of the upcoming vaccines. At the same time, the global demand for disposable gloves is rapidly rising in these unprecedented times.

Along with gloves, the demand for other protective equipment like PPEs and face masks is also increasing and manufacturers are struggling to keep up with the massive demand.

1. Market Trends
A study indicates that the global PPE market will be worth about $94 billion by 2027. The primary reason behind this huge increase is the fact that products like gloves are now not only needed by medical personnel but by the general public as well.

The disposable gloves market alone is expected to rise from $7 billion to about $19 billion by 2027. Moreover, leading gloves manufacturers in Malaysia have made it clear that the current supply of rubber gloves will not be able to meet the rising demand in the next three years.

According to studies, around 120 billion gloves are needed in Malaysia in the next three years. However, the industry is facing a massive shortage due to the pandemic and disruption in the supply chain.

2. Prices
Another challenge created by the shortage of disposable gloves is that it has resulted in a significant increase in the price of gloves and other products like masks and sanitizers. As a result, people are finding it extremely difficult to get these products during this health crisis.

3. Protection
According to the guidelines of the World Health Organization (WHO), wearing rubber gloves in public does not have much significant impact on being protected against the coronavirus if the gloves are not used correctly.

However, there are some contradictory studies and medical points of view. As a result, the trend of wearing gloves in places like supermarkets and public transport is increasing quickly, and the demand for both examination and surgical gloves has increased.

4. Malaysia’s Role
Malaysia has an important role in the global gloves market. It is the world’s largest manufacturer of rubber gloves and contributes to about 60% of the global exports.

The Malaysian Rubber Glove Manufacturers Association,(MARGMA) is projecting the worldwide demand to increase from 296 billion to 330 billion in 2020. As a result, the shortage of disposable gloves is expected for the next few years while the demand will keep rising due to the global pandemic.

5. Meeting the Demand
A lot of different measures are being discussed to meet the rising demand for disposable gloves. It is important to note that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a significant change in user behaviour which is expected to continue in the future as well. Most of the gloves manufacturers in Malaysia are seeing an increase of about 30% in demand for rubber gloves, especially from developed countries.

To cater to this massive demand growth, manufacturers are considering the expansion of their capacities by opening more production lines and completing them quickly. Moreover, the current production plants are being scaled up to add additional plants and produce more products.

6. Glove Inspection
Glove manufacturing is a time-consuming process because a lot of time has to be allocated for glove inspection and making sure they are defect-free and fit properly. Luckily, most glove manufacturing processes can be automated with the help of modern automated visual inspection.

Companies like Cortex Robotics are playing an important role by providing an efficient and reliable glove AVI (automated visual inspection) system that can easily, accurately and efficiently inspect all areas of the glove’s top and bottom surface. Moreover, such a system inspects gloves from all different angles and can also detect different colours of the gloves.

A major advantage of such a glove AVI system is that glove manufacturers no longer need to spend resources such as time and labour on manual inspection. Instead, they will be getting reliable results from automated visual inspection to detect any kind of tear, incomplete beading, stains, and double-dipping in gloves.

Therefore, by relying on Cortex Robotics glove automated visual inspection system, companies can automate the glove inspection process and extensively speed up the entire manufacturing so that they can fulfil the rising global demand for gloves. In this way, they will not only satisfy the consumers but also play a critical role in boosting the economy.

The Bottom Line
The demand for disposable gloves is certainly rising in these challenging times, and many manufacturers are having a hard time meeting the massive demand.

However, by innovating manufacturing processes using modern glove inspection methods, manufacturers can speed up the process and produce more gloves to fulfil global demand.
Supply and Demand Complexity is not easy to Understand.

Boston Cny set menu more expensive (asp)..after cny price dropped to previous prices (pre-pandemic). Restaurant operators lots of cash received. Lots of cash doesn’t mean share prices will increase. With extra cash, buying more restaurants (expanding more production lines)??? Other new comer also expanding (mashing)…supplies definitely overwhelmed demands.

GENEVA: The World Health Organization's emergency committee warned Thursday that new concerning variants of Covid-19 were expected to spread around the world, potentially making it even harder to halt the pandemic.

"The pandemic is nowhere near finished," the committee warned in a statement following a meeting Wednesday on the pandemic situation.

Committee chairman Didier Houssin acknowledged to reporters that "recent trends are worrying."

He said a year-and-a half after the WHO first declared a so-called Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) – its highest alert level – "we are still running after this virus and the virus is still running after us."

Emergence of highly infectious virus variants cause for concern, say experts
For now, four concerning variants of Covid-19 are dominating the global pandemic picture, Alpha, Beta, Gamma and especially the rapidly-spreading Delta variant first detected in India.

But the committee warned that worse could lie ahead, pointing to "the strong likelihood for the emergence and global spread of new and possibly more dangerous variants of concern that may be even more challenging to control."

WHO declares variants as being "of concern" when they are seen as either more transmissible, more deadly or have the potential to get past some vaccine protections.--AFP

G-20 Experts:
The next global pandemic could happen at any time and the world must start preparing for it now, Singapore's Senior Ministertold CNBC.
G-20 panel of global experts that released a report on Friday which proposed measures to prevent outbreaks and quickly respond to any future pandemic.
The measures include "better and more reliable funding" for the World Health Organization, as well as tapping multilateral institutions such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund to help fund the fight against a pandemic.
We cannot wait for the next Pandemic, we must collaborate now, at present Pandemic. At present global funding is way too inefficient.
As environment becoming more unfriendly, such as global warming, more unfriendly living organisms are harming nature n humanity.
The next deadly Pandemic is Real!

The Irrationality of the Efficient Market Hypothesis:

“I’d be a bum on the street with a tin cup if the markets were always efficient.” - Warren Buffett

“It is hard for me to see how anyone can consider the stock market efficient.” - Phil Fisher

“Value investors know – although efficient market believers fail to comprehend – that the underlying value of a security is distinguishable from its daily market price, which is set by the whim of buyers and sellers, as are the prices of rare art and other collectibles.” - Seth Klarman

The stock market is Inefficient! U need to be efficient n rational!

The stock market:
The reality is that the stock market is wildly irrational at times. Valuations become meaningless, euphoric trends climb to the sky and it seems like the dumbest investors are rewarded for their lack of rigorous analysis.
Pessimistic trends drop so irrational, stay oversold, for a periods of time.
These periods of irrational actions are the nature of the stock markets.

UlarSawa China Death penalty the most strict deterrent to tell their rakyat must obey the instructions lah. Pay fine and jail term macam pun not many scare also even in Msia lah. It is effective as rakyat takut the most is no more life then they can do what lah. Look at western countries one. Always talk about human right. Human has the right to spread covid lah. Thats why human spreading covid non stop bcos they have the right to spread it lah. China side mana ada give such right to their ppl lah. Mostly rakyat are forced obey with stern penalties lah. Thats why their rakyat have no right to spread covid lah. Thats why china cases is low right. Of course TCM play a major role also lah. Remedy to strengthen the lungs with herb also can prevent the virus attack alao lah. Whether drink wong lo kit can help or not I dunno lah. Importantly they are so advanced to the stage they use AI to combat the covid from spreading lah. I wonder whyany dont follow china footstep just bcos China is a communist country kah. Democratic countries cannot accept Communist country have a better remedy to handle Covid kah. Cannot accept it kah. Apa lah. Saving life also want to see you are what type of country kah. Save is save life mah. Who can save more lives use their method lah. Anything wrong kah. Correct?

Wise Saying! Those who committed crime against Humanity, must be shot, a single bullet st the back of their head! Nothing wrong! They are Leeches in Society!

UlarSawa What TG need is friend with deep pocket like Temasek. Tan Sri should court Temasek to buy TG shares since TG is under shotrtist attacked. The main culprit is JPM lah.

“The stock market is filled with individuals who know the price of everything, but the value of nothing.”
-Philip Fisher.

Value Growth Investing is crucial!
The estimated value after 3/5/10/15/20 years from now!
Topglov™from, 2001, IPO of RM 2.70/Unit, it has grown to RM 485.00/Unit, now, 2021!
What are those doggies n shorties know about Future Value!

“The stock market is filled with individuals who know the price of everything, but the value of nothing.”
You wouldn't always think so, but price is actually very different from value.
#2001-IPO= @2.70/Unit.
#2021-Value= @489.00/Unit.
Fear N Greed is the biggest challenge n mistake!

Aiyoo...yo...just be a happy go lucky person, nobody in the world doesn't have criticism, even the Buddha was poisoned 3 times before he died, n many more are poisoned or killed. Jesus was nailed to a Cross!
Just take the poison, just take whatever criticism, u won't die so easily, time to go u will go!
As long u go happily n joyfully, all conscience is transparent!
Joy will bring luck n positive energy surrounding U!

UPlanet Geary, LKY definitely is an undeniable legendary world class leader!!! I feel so far none of the leaders can get closer to his achievements!!! I just can’t imagine what would happen to China nowadays if he is a leader in China?? I think should be already many thousand kilometres lead over the US!!!

China already slaughtered so many leeches, that's why so much differences, the past 100 years of CCP!

UlarSawa Dont forget our top 4 gloves companies have advantages and they can merge to become most formidable competitor if foreign company dare to challenge us. Anyway all are local Msia citizen right. Easy to talk lah if want to consolidating to fight the foreign competitors. Dont think they want to lose the top producer title to foreign competitor lah. Those who champion foreign competitor one more like a traitor or penkianat lah. Want to see local top world ranking losing the title kah. Very ungrateful lah. Correct?

Those who invested in glove n PPE are essential items that protect n save lives, that's all we know n our clear conscience. All those supernormal profits, it's just supply n demand, economic issues! Nobody can control it! Plus some environment pollution, that's trade-off we need to accept.
Plus future R&D need to be innovated!

LONDON, July 2 (Reuters) - Britain has reported 50,824 new cases of the highly transmissible Delta coronavirus variant of concern in the latest week, Public Health England (PHE) said on Friday.

PHE said the new total cases of Delta had risen to 161,981, a 46% increase from last week.
