## Leading Chinese buyers of disposable masks with protection
In China, like around the world, the market for personal protective equipment, in particular disposable masks, remains in demand even after the peak of the pandemic. Although the mass purchase by the state is no longer so relevant, demand is supported by large and small enterprises, medical institutions and, of course, the citizens themselves. Who is the main drivers of this market?
### Medical institutions: continuous demand for sterility
Hospitals, clinics and other medical organizations remain one of the largest and stable buyers of disposable masks with protection. Not only protective properties are important to them, but also the sterility of products, compliance with strict sanitary standards and the availability of the necessary certificates. Demand is constantly supported not only by preventive measures, but also by the need to ensure safety of both patients and medical personnel. This market segment is characterized by high requirements for quality and willingness to pay for reliability.
##H Industry: Employees Protection - Priority No. 1
Large and medium -sized enterprises of various industries are also significant buyers of masks. Care for the health and safety of employees is an important factor, so many companies regularly purchase the necessary number of disposable masks for their employees, especially in areas where the risk of infection remains increased. This can be food production, pharmaceutical industry or any other areas where close contact with other people is inevitable.
### Private Sector: Prevention and Personal Security
Finally, a significant part of the demand for disposable masks comes from individuals. Even after a decrease in the level of danger, many citizens continue to use masks during periods of seasonal colds or in crowded places, trying to minimize the risk of infection with viral infections. This market segment is more sensitive to price fluctuations, but nevertheless remains important and significant.
