Respiratory Protective Equipment Market Size
Respiratory Protective Equipment Market was valued at USD 8 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 7% from 2024 to 2032. This growth is primarily fueled by rising demand, especially from North America's medical and healthcare sectors.
The global personal protective equipment (PPE) market, of which respiratory gear is a significant part, is on track to exceed USD 110 billion by 2032, driven by increasingly stringent safety regulations in workplaces worldwide.
Respiratory Protective Equipment Market Trends
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly boosted the demand for respiratory PPE in North America. The region's market is further bolstered by the presence of major players, notably in the U.S. In a notable instance, in January 2021, Honeywell International Inc., a leading U.S.-based conglomerate, achieved a milestone by supplying over 225 million PPEs and masks in December 2020. These were distributed across various U.S. locations, including healthcare facilities, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and FEMA.
While there is a growing demand for respiratory protective equipment, challenges persist. High product prices and user discomfort are key hurdles. For instance, powered respiratory protective devices, favored by many healthcare workers, can be cumbersome due to their weight and the corrugated breathing tube connection, limiting user mobility. Moreover, facepieces in air-purifying respirators can distort sound, posing communication challenges in critical environments
Respiratory Protective Equipment Market Analysis
The respiratory protective equipment industry segments its products into supplied air respirators (SAR), air purifying respirators (APR), and others. The APR segment further divides into powered and unpowered types. Forecasts indicate that powered APRs could generate USD 5 billion in revenue by 2032. The increased adoption of these products by healthcare workers during the pandemic has significantly boosted this segment's revenue.
Powered APRs offer superior protection compared to N95 FFRs and reusable elastomeric half-face piece respirators. With the spread of more virulent virus strains, such as the XBB.1.5 variant, the demand for powered APR masks is expected to rise. According to the CDC, the XBB.1.5 variant has shown a higher transmission rate, further driving the need for effective respiratory protection
Revenue from the military & aviation segment within the respiratory protective equipment industry is expected to exceed USD 1 billion by 2032, driven by increasing demand for protective masks. The military uses advanced respiratory protectors to safeguard personnel from toxic fumes during conflicts.
According to the U.S. Department of Defense, the military's budget for protective gear has increased by 5% annually over the past five years. In the aviation sector, RPEs are essential for passenger safety during emergencies. The Federal Aviation Administration reports a 15% increase in air travel in 2023, indicating a growing need for RPEs. As geopolitical tensions rise, the military sector is also anticipated to further increase its demand for respiratory protective equipment.
North America respiratory protective equipment market size exceeded USD 3.02 billion in 2023. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a 2.4% increase in employment in the construction sector in 2023, highlighting the rising demand for safety equipment. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) noted an uptick in respiratory illnesses among workers, further driving the need for RPEs. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has implemented stricter regulations, which are expected to bolster market growth. The North American market is projected to grow at a steady rate, supported by technological advancements and increased safety awareness.
