U.S. Personal Protective Equipment Market Growth & Trends

The U.S. personal protective equipment market size is anticipated to reach USD 32.5 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.7% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is driven by increasing spending on worker safety and protective products coupled with rising awareness about stringent safety rules & regulations.

The U.S. is one of the most severely affected countries in the world by the coronavirus. The rapid spread of COVID-19 in the country has increased the demand for personal protective equipment (PPE), especially in the healthcare sector, to reduce further transmission. Thus, the COVID-19 outbreak had a positive impact on the growth of the U.S. personal protective equipment market.

Increasing awareness among the industry participants regarding the importance of worker safety and security at workplaces, on account of the stringent regulations and high costs associated with workplace hazards, is anticipated to drive market growth. Particularly, rising awareness along with new rules & regulations in the U.S. are likely to fuel the market growth during the forecast period.

Government regulations such as ANSI, NIOSH, and ASTM compel the use of protective equipment for workers in end-use industries such as oil & gas, mining, and construction. Mandated policies by agencies for companies to maintain worker safety in industries are anticipated to drive demand for personal protective equipment.

Increasing onshore and offshore drilling activities coupled with rising shale gas production in the U.S. are the factors anticipated to augment PPE demand to protect employees from workplace hazards. Furthermore, high product penetration in the U.S. is attributed to the stringent regulatory scenario and growing employee awareness regarding personal safety.

Key players such as 3M, Honeywell International Inc., and DuPont actively focus on product innovation, joint ventures, mergers, and acquisitions. In May 2022, 3M announced expanding production for personal protective equipment such as respiratory and hearing protection products. This expansion will allow 3M to increase investment to meet the unmatched demand for PPE.
