The global smoke grenade market size reached US$ 511.3 Million in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 795.6 Million by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% during 2024-2032. A considerable rise in geopolitical tensions across the globe, increasing incidences of war and internal conflicts, and the rising demand for harmless smoke grenades in the entertainment industry represent some of the key factors driving the market.

A smoke grenade refers to a closed canister-like device that emits white or colored smoke when ignited and is used for both military and commercial purposes. In a typical smoke grenade, there are four emitter holes on top and one on the bottom that allows smoke to escape when triggered. There is a high degree of visibility of smoke from a distance, and in some grenades, smoke can be deployed for up to a few minutes. Smoke grenades have a longer range and thus spread into a larger area than normal smoke bombs, which are widely used to signal their team members. In addition to marking a location, smoke grenades are also used to make it easier for others to locate a person or place. During combat, an artillery or bombing target can be marked with smoke grenades to identify opponents during combat, blind and disorient them before an assault, or identify positions. Apart from these, smoke grenades also find widespread applications in numerous games, firework displays, and festive celebrations.

Smoke Grenade Market Trends:
The market is primarily driven by the increasing incidences of war, crimes and conflicts between several countries.
