Personal protective equipment market to reach US$55.5 bn by 2020, rising concerns over occupational safety drive growth

A report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR) on the global Personal Protective Equipment market estimates the market to register a CAGR of 7.30% between 2014 and 2020.  The market is likely to increase from an overall value of US$34 bn in 2013 to an expected value of US$55.5 bn by the end of the forecast period. The study is titled, “Personal Protective Equipment Market – Global Industry Analysis, Trend and Forecast 2014 – 2020.”

Personal protective equipment (PPE) refers to wearable equipment that protects the wearer’s body from injuries, infections, and various physical, electrical, heat-borne, fire-borne, chemical-borne, and perils of airborne particulate matter. Protective clothing, goggles, industrial footwear, and helmets are some of the commonly used personal protective equipment. In the recent times, this equipment has witnessed a remarkable rise in demand. The increased concerns over the safety of employees at work have propelled the global market for personal protective equipment significantly.

According to the report, the worldwide personal protective equipment market is likely to gain significant impetus from the untapped opportunities present in the developing economies of Asia Pacific and South America over the forecast period. However, the growth of this market is anticipated to be restricted in the coming years, as the rising automation of manufacturing processes has started to limit manual interference in operations.
