Plastics
play a major role in our lives today and are found abundantly in our everyday
lives. They find applications across a host of industries including medicines,
construction, appliances, automotives, and in other industries. However,
repeated use of plastics over a substantial period is raising a concern over
their hygiene. Overuse of plastic bottles to store water results in leaking of
chemicals into the water. Storing food in plastic containers promotes the
growth of harmful bacteria. Contamination problems are increasing with
escalating cases of pathogenic diseases. Use of antimicrobials in plastics can
help kill or control the growth of harmful microorganisms such as bacteria,
fungi, and other parasites.

Consumer awareness regarding the importance of antimicrobials in
plastics is growing owing to the widespread epidemic outbreaks of life
threatening diseases such as H1N1 in 2009 and increasing cases of nosocomial
infections in recent times. There is an evident increase in the demand for
antimicrobials in the medical and healthcare sector. This is one of the primary
reasons for driving the global antimicrobial market’s growth. Moreover, the
antimicrobial plastic market is witnessing rapid growth in the developing
regions of Asia Pacific as there is an increase in the use of plastics here.
Many large scale plastic manufacturers are using antimicrobial additives in
their products such as medical equipments, bottles, and food packaging.
Economic slowdown is one of the main factors affecting the
antimicrobial plastics market. It affects the consumption of antimicrobials in
plastics as manufacturers have to produce cost-effective products. Moreover, in
developing regions of Asia Pacific and Latin America, there are no stringent
regulations on the use of antimicrobials in plastics. This has resulted in
malpractices among some of the manufacturers to make false claims of the
antimicrobial plastics used in their products. This has in turn affected the
antimicrobial plastics market negatively.
There is an increasing demand from sectors such as healthcare
and medicine for antimicrobial polymers for non-toxic plastic equipments which
also has properties such as higher antimicrobial activity, durability,
hardness, and transparency. In addition to this, consumers are becoming more
aware of the use of antimicrobial plastic products, resulting in a rising
demand for cost-effective, eco-friendly polymers with advanced properties.
Some of the leading manufacturers of antimicrobial plastics are
BASF, Bayer Material Science, Ticona Engineering Polymers, Momentive
Performance Materials , Doeflex Vitapol , and Teknor Apex Company . Some of the
other companies manufacturing only antimicrobial additives are Clariant , Troy
Corporation, and Arch Chemicals Inc.
