Personal Protective Equipment Market Growth Factors, Opportunities, Ongoing Trends and Key Players 2032

The global protective equipment market is expected to be worth $55.6 billion in 2022. However, with a growing emphasis on improving worker safety across various industries, overall sales of personal protective equipment are expected to rise at a healthy CAGR of around 6.3 % between 2022 and 2032, totaling more than US$ 96.4 billion by 2032.

PPE refers to safety products such as protective clothing, helmets, goggles, gloves, face shields, masks, and other similar items designed to protect the wearer’s body from injury or infection at work. They have become in high demand as tools for improving workplace safety in a variety of industries.

Despite significant efforts to increase production capacity, supplies are stagnating and the market situation has deteriorated, owing primarily to the prolonged closure of factories in China. Furthermore, the World Health Organization (WHO) has warned that severe and plunging disruptions in the global supply of PPE, caused by misuse, panic buying, and stockpiling, are endangering the lives of both healthcare workers and patients. The number of cases of the new coronavirus disease is rapidly increasing.

As the inappropriate use and supply shortage of PPE continues, the WHO has put forth several strategies to facilitate optimal PPE availability and normalize the supply chain. Using telemedicine to evaluate suspected cases of COVID-19 and physical barriers to reduce exposure and restricting healthcare workers who are not involved in direct care from coming in contact with COVID-19 patients are likely to minimize the need for PPE. The rationalized use and distribution of PPE along with rapid response to curb the spread of disease is thus expected to bridge the widening gap between supply and demand for PPE.

U.S. Urges Nations to Ramp Up Production of PPE, China to Lift New Export Restrictions on Medical Supplies

North America and Europe remained key markets for personal protective equipment for both medical and industrial applications with major players expanding their presence in developing Asian Pacific countries such as China and India. Rapid industrialization, low operation cost and cheap labor in these countries have been securing a steady supply chain for global market stakeholders.

However, the scenario is drastically changing amidst the outbreak of coronavirus and subsequent lockdown of factories. As the U.S. is facing a historic surge in patients seeking care of COVID-19, the government is using federal powers to force local companies to manufacture, urging other countries to accelerate the production of PPE, and seeking to purchase any quantities major PPE-producing countries can spare.

China’s new restrictions on coronavirus-related medical supplies including personal protective equipment – that allows only those manufacturers with accreditation to sell their products with China to export to other countries – came amid growing concerns about quality of various Chinese medical products. However, the country promises to lift the restrictions as several countries are still battling COVID-19 with massive shortfall of essential medical supplies. This, in turn, is expected to influence the growth prospects of the global personal protective equipment market.

COVID-19 Redirects the Application Scope of Personal Protective Equipment

Governments and health organizations worldwide are increasingly collaborating with manufacturers and suppliers to meet the PPE supply-demand gap. However, these manufacturers are facing significant hurdles due to unavailability of raw materials and outbound logistics amidst expansive lockdown of airlines and restrictions on export activities.

In addition to taking critical decisions to normalize the situation, manufacturers are currently stopping the production of industrial PPE such as industrial safety, chemical resistant gloves, and welding helmets and focusing on products for medical applications. However, innovations are on the horizon for smart personal protective equipment to deliver real-time information, minimize exposure to hazards, and enable adjustments with internal and external conditions. Post supply chain normalization, the demand for PPE will continue to grow in line with increasing mining activities and infrastructural development.
