All clothing, helmets, other garments and goggles, which are used to protect the wearer’s body from any injury are referred to personal protective equipment (PPE). Personal protective equipment are basically used for safety during sports activities, recreational and other activities ensuring full body protection from airborne particulate, heat, electrical, biohazards, physical hazards and others. New product development is a key factor driving the demand for PPE equipment across the globe. Other factors fueling the personal protective equipment market growth include growing awareness and consciousness for safety in workplace, government policies and regulations for safety compliance of workers and development of cost-effective products by manufacturers. Also, increasing accidents at workplace, infection related issues especially in healthcare sector and improvement in overall manufacturing and industrial sector are expected to bolster the personal protective equipment market growth in the next five to six years.
North America is anticipated to remain dominant in terms of revenue contribution, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific is further expected to record highest growth during the forecast period. This is majorly attributed to increasing product availability, improving distribution channel and rising awareness among consumers. However, tariffs barriers coupled with high cost associated with personal protective equipment manufacturing might hamper market growth. Personal protective equipment manufacturers are focused on improving supply chain, emphasizing on end-user preferences and enhancing geographic reach.
