The document discusses opportunities and challenges for Indian manufacturers in the medical textiles sector. It notes that medical textiles is an emerging and growing sector due to improvements in healthcare and textile innovations. Key opportunities include increasing consumption and growth of private hospitals in India, while challenges include competition from China and a lack of standards. The document calls for developing more medical textile product standards in India and policy support such as clarifying export incentives to help manufacturers capitalize on the sector's potential.

1 MEDICAL TEXTILES OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES AHEAD FOR INDIAN MANUFACTURERS K.CHITRA 11TM03 PGDM(T)
2 Overview Medical textiles Healthcare & Hygiene Technological Advancements Opportunities & Challenges Govt. policy support required
3 Medical Textiles Medical textiles is an emerging sector of technical textiles industry and its growth is fuelled due to constant improvements in healthcare as well as innovations in the textile field. The use of textile materials for medical and healthcare products can be classified into following main areas - Barrier material (for infection control) - Bandaging & pressure garment - Wound care material - Hygiene material - Implantable material (sutures, art. Joints etc) - Extra Corporal devices (like art. Kidney etc)
4 Medical Textiles Requirements of textile material for medical applications Biocompatible Good resistance to alkalis, acids and micro-organisms Good dimensional stability Elasticity Free from contamination or impurities Absorption / Repellency Air permeability.
The various applications of different fibre in medical field are shown as follows: Sr No. Fibre Application in medical field 1 Cotton Surgical clothing gowns, Beddings, Sheets, Pillow cover, Uniforms, Surgical hosiery 2 Viscose Caps, Masks, Wipes 3 Polyester Gowns, Masks, Surgical cover drapes, Blankets, Cover stock 4 Polyamide Surgical hosiery 5 Polypropylene Protective clothing 6 Polyethylene Surgical covers, Drapes 7 Glass Caps mask 8 Elastomeric Surgical hosiery 5
Includes products like Surgical / wound dressings Gowns / drapes Diapers / femcare pads / adult incontinence diapers Bedsheets / curtains / Towels / Mitts / Wipes Largest segment of Medical Textiles One of the fastest growing segment in Textiles Healthcare & Hygiene
In India, traditionally this segment is dominated by Woven Textiles Lately, new technology Nonwoven products have provided innovative product options Reasons for growth of this segment Growing awareness among society for hygiene and safety Frequent interactions of medical professionals with international medical societies Availability of new technologically advanced products Medical tourism Healthcare & Hygiene
crucial issues regarding medical products Natural against chemical or manufactured fibres Disposable against reusable or durable fabrics Antibacterial or antimicrobial fibres against finishes or coatings for infection control Methods of disposal of clinical waste i.e. landfills against incineration and other forms of medical and clinical waste disposal 8
Fabrics with anti-microbial properties Fire retardant fabrics Nonwoven fabrics They are engineered fabrics from sheet of fibres, with desired properties (performance characteristics) to suite specific applications; such as Very high fluid repellency or absorbency Extremely low linting Fast wicking of liquids Anti-static Nonwoven fabrics are providing customized solutions in cost effective manner, and are thus taking important place in meditech worldwide Technological Advancements
With the growing awareness, the world is going for stringent product quality standards. There is a need to align Indian standards with these global developments, like Barrier efficiency of gowns / drapes Chemical & Micro-biological testing for dressings There is need to adopt standards for newly developed products, like Disposable gowns Nonwoven dressings Face masks Advancements in product standards
Opportunities & Challenges ahead Opportunities Consumption is increasing rapidly Pvt. Hospital chains are growing Doctor/patient awareness for hygiene is increasing Medical tourism Challenges China has become very strong in most of Healthcare & hygiene products There are very few BIS standards in place leading to substandard quality products being used Export benefits like DD/DEPB not notified for many products 11
Consumption of different categories of medical textiles: SR Medical Textile Product Market potential (Rs Mn) 2005 2010 1 Sanitary Napkins 4819 8519 2 Incontinence diapers 605 1070 3 Surgical dressing 5828 10302 4 Health care textiles 1491 2635 5 Sutures 3160 5587 6 Medical devices & Implants 1190 2104 12
Govt. Policy Support Required 13 Fast development of BIS standards in lieu with the International standards. Lot of new product standards to be added Amendment of Drugs & Cosmetics Act to accommodate new technologies such as nonwoven products To promote new technology products, Govt. hospitals to be advised on the advantages of these products and their BIS standards
Govt. Policy Support Required EXCISE TARIFF PRODUCTS EXCISE DUTY DEPB DUTY DRAWBACK 3005 1020 ADESIVE DRESSINGS / TAPES 10 % NIL 1% 3005 9040 BANDAGES 10% NIL 1% 3307 1090 WET WIPES / PATIENT MITTS 10% NIL 5% 14 There is immense potential for exports of medical textile products from India. However, no DEPB / DD rates are declared for most of the products, to cover the local duties paid. Some examples are -
Three important lessons might be useful for present and future entrepreneurs interested to develop Medical Textile products: 1. Manufacturing is an integrated system 2.Manufacturing must be driven by customers experiences and needs, not solely based on profitability 3. Embrace innovation and bring changes before your competitors adopt that 15
Last but not the least, manufacturers of Medical Textile products must keep them abreast of the ethical issues and international standard norms. With great strength of Textile technologists in our country, India has a huge potential to be the leader in the World in the field of Medical Textiles. 16
