Global Adaptive Clothing Market Definition

Adaptive clothing is clothing made for those with physical limitations, the aged, and patients recovering from surgery. As they have difficulties dressing and undressing, some persons prefer adaptable attire. Adaptive clothing covers items such as adaptive pants and tops, locking clothes, open-back clothing, and so on. Velcro or magnetic closures from zippers and buttons are commonly used to replace these garments.

Flat stitches are common in adaptive clothing to avoid friction, as well as modest alterations to appear as close to traditional fashion as feasible. These are the clothing with a stretchy waist for improved comfort and safety, as well as clothing tailored to accommodate incontinence devices or with a longer back length to support those sitting in wheelchairs.

Global Adaptive Clothing Market Overview

Hospitals have significant growth for adapted clothing as it makes it easier for caretakers, nurses, and hospice workers to undress and clothe patients. Since the adapted clothing has holes, doctors can easily attach any medical device to the patient’s body without jeopardizing his or her dignity. As a result, it facilitates quicker access to medical devices.

Over the forecast period, the rising prevalence of disorders such as diabetes is likely to drive market growth. Furthermore, the rising geriatric population is anticipated to expand the industry demand in upcoming years. WHO states that by 2030, one out of every six persons on the planet will be 60 years old or over. The number of 60 years and above-aged people is projected to reach 1.4 billion by 2050 from 1 billion in 2020. By 2050, the global population of people aged 60 and up will have doubled (2.1 billion). Between 2020 and 2050, the number of people aged 80 and above is predicted to triple, and reach 426 million. Henceforth, the increasing elderly population will significantly influence the demand for adaptive clothing.
