Rest of the World Firefighter PPE Growth Opportunities
Adoption of NFPA and CEN Firefighting PPE Standards Enhance Growth Potential
The rest of the world (RoW) firefighting PPE market generated revenue of €802.8 million in 2023. Firefighters wrestle with occupational hazards, such as physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, biohazards, and airborne particulate matter. PPE safeguards firefighters against contaminants, debris, fire/heat, and chemicals. As such, increased awareness of fire safety and the adoption of stringent NFPA and CEN standards are forecast to propel market growth in upcoming years.
Turnout gear accounted for the largest product segment, contributing $214.4 million in revenue in 2023. Demand for lightweight, high-performance, and comfortable 3-layer turnout gear will drive the growth of this segment during the forecast period.
Across RoW countries, robust demand for decontamination could prompt firefighting PPE companies to partner and/or acquire service companies to offer differentiated offerings in this competitive market.
Technology integration in firefighting PPE is expected to be high owing to its high-risk work environment. As the price sensitivity of firefighting PPE is relatively low compared to other industries, this offers ample growth opportunities for companies investing in R&D activities to develop smart IoT-enabled firefighting PPE.
Given the lucrative growth opportunities, larger firefighting PPE manufacturers are expected to pursue M&As in the next 3 to 5 years to reduce competition and boost revenue share.
This RoW firefighting PPE report covers all the regions except North America (Report K964) and Western Europe (Report MH03). The areas include Central and Eastern Europe, Russia, the Middle East, Africa, South America, and Asia.
