Global Life Vests Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Life vests, also known as personal flotation devices (PFDs), are essential pieces of safety equipment for anyone participating in aquatic activities. They are designed to keep the wearer afloat and their head above water in case they become tired, injured, or unconscious.

There are different types of life vests available, each designed for specific activities, such as kayaking, boating, and fishing. Some vests are inflatable, while others are made from foam. Inflatable life vests are lightweight and easy to wear, but require regular maintenance and testing to ensure they are functioning properly. Foam life vests are inherently buoyant and do not require any additional work to operate.

When choosing a life vest, it is important to consider factors such as buoyancy, fit, and comfort. A properly fitted life vest should be snug but not too tight, and should not ride up or shift around while wearing it.
