Abstract
Executive Summary Characterized by its fragmented state, the market for
personal protective equipment (PPE) serves the needs of different industries
and helps them provide their workers with safe working environment. Adding to
the growth of the PPE market is the present day regulatory environment that
has made it mandatory for every industry to provide necessary protective
equipments to the workers. The US is the leading market for PPE in terms of
the total import registered by the country from other parts of the world.
China, on the contrary, is the largest exporter of PPE with even brighter
prospects of growth.
The demand for PPE is driven by diverse industries in which medical and
healthcare segment play a major role. In addition, the food industry is also
one of the major contributors to the increasing demand for PPE. In the
meanwhile, use of PPE has also increased in the manufacturing industry, where
new safety regulations have made the application of safety appliances
mandatory. The market of PPE for women shows tremendous growth potential in
the near future as demand has been recorded at a much higher level than
supply. Apart from all these factors, increasing demand for gloves is also
supporting the PPE industry and represents a major part of the industry
revenue.
