Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are influencing the reusable face mask market by increasing costs of imported fabrics, filtration materials, elastic components, and textile machinery used in mask production. Apparel and healthcare product manufacturers in North America and Europe are most affected due to dependence on imported raw materials, while Asia-Pacific faces cost pressure on export-oriented mask manufacturing. These tariffs are increasing retail prices and squeezing manufacturer margins. However, they are also encouraging local textile sourcing, domestic production expansion, and innovation in cost-efficient reusable mask designs.

The increasing levels of air pollution are expected to drive the growth of the reusable face mask market in the coming years. Air pollution refers to the presence of harmful substances or particles in the atmosphere, often resulting from human activities, which negatively impact human health, the environment, and climate. Growing awareness of the health risks associated with polluted air and the importance of personal protection has led individuals and communities to adopt reusable face masks as a practical and eco-friendly way to safeguard respiratory health, boosting demand for these products. For example, in September 2024, BAI Bretagne Angleterre Irlande S.A., a France-based freight ferry company, reported that in 2023, global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels reached an unprecedented 37.4 billion tons, a 1.1% increase compared to 2022. Air pollution is also estimated to cause approximately 7 million deaths annually. Consequently, the rise in air pollution is supporting the growth of the reusable face mask market.
Leading companies in the reusable face mask market are focusing on innovative solutions, such as enhanced-filtration reusable masks, to address the growing demand for higher protection, improved comfort, and sustainable alternatives to disposable masks. Enhanced-filtration reusable masks feature multi-layer constructions with advanced filter materials such as melt-blown fabric, activated carbon, or nanofiber membranes, providing superior particle-blocking efficiency compared to traditional cloth masks while remaining washable and reusable. For example, in September 2024, BASE CAMP, a U.S.-based protective-gear and outdoor safety equipment company, introduced the BASE CAMP Cotton Cloth Face Mask. The mask has a multi-layer cotton design that improves filtration against dust, particulate matter, and respiratory droplets. It incorporates a 4D ergonomic structure that maintains a stable facial contour, reducing air leakage and enhancing breathability. Adjustable ear-loop cord locks and a bendable nose bridge allow a customized and secure fit for various face shapes. Fully washable and reusable, the mask helps reduce waste compared with disposable alternatives, and its durable design makes it suitable for daily commuting, outdoor activities, and use in polluted or dusty environments.
In February 2023, Armbrust American, a surgical mask manufacturer, acquired Breathe99, a startup developing reusable elastomer-based face masks. This acquisition positions Armbrust American to expand its product line and provide sustainable respiratory protection solutions, reflecting the industry's commitment to meeting evolving demands and ensuring sustainability.
