Market Growth Factors
The growing construction sector
The population is expanding, cities are becoming more populated, and domestic manufacturing is rising. Governments all across the world are investing more money in infrastructure, which is boosting the construction industry’s growth. The development of the construction sector is further aided by rising private sector investments. One of the main factors fueling the market’s expansion is the government’s increasing investment in renovating various residential and commercial structures to boost the specific country’s economy. As the construction sector expands due to various reasons, the demand for construction worker safety equipment is anticipated to surge.
Advancement in the safety equipment
The development of technology has resulted in its incorporation into the marketplace. For example, intelligent PPE is gaining traction in the market for construction worker safety. Bluetooth-enabled smart PPE can communicate to the internet and other devices, providing real-time information on worker safety. Additionally, it aids in the collection of data on employees’ movements and provides notifications regarding potential positioning enhancements. In addition, the increasing development of automotive technology contributes to the delivery of greater safety benefits. Consequently, the advancement and use of modern technology in construction worker safety equipment are anticipated to increase their application in various end-use industries, thereby driving the market growth.
Market Restraining Factors
Difficulties in implementation and associated high cost
Installing workplace safety systems is needed to protect employees and equipment in an emergency. However, the considerable costs associated with construction site safety components, implementation, installation, and maintenance create a significant financial burden on the business. In addition, the deployed systems have substantial installation and subscription expenses. Small enterprises in low-income countries find it challenging to afford the expensive installation expenses of these solutions, whereas large organizations can. Therefore, it is anticipated that the complicated installation process and high implementation costs will restrain market growth.
Application Outlook
By application, the construction worker safety market is classified into worker body safety and workplace safety. The workplace safety segment acquired a substantial revenue share in the construction worker safety market in 2022. This is due to the fact that the systems for workplace safety are made to guard against a variety of ergonomic, chemical, physical, and biological dangers. Thus, the need for workplace safety solutions is increased by the growing worries about occupational safety. The high need for dependable safety solutions to ensure asset and personal security is expected to drive the segment’s growth.
Type Outlook
Based on type, the construction worker safety market is segmented into personal protective equipment, fall protection equipment and safe excess equipment. The personal protective equipment segment held the highest revenue share in the construction worker safety market in 2022. This is because using personal protection equipment (often called “PPE”) lowers exposure to risks that might result in severe workplace illnesses and injuries. In addition, personal protective equipment aids in preventing workplace emergencies among staff members brought on by inhalation, irritants, absorption, or other extended contact with a cleaning chemical.
Construction Type Outlook
On the basis of construction type, the construction worker safety market is divided into residential, commercial and industrial. The residential segment witnessed the largest revenue share in the construction worker safety market in 2022. This is due to the fact that none of these structures are used for business purposes but rather for habitation. Residential buildings include multi-family homes, apartments, and even mobile homes, even though many people primarily consider single-family homes when considering residential structures. The use of safety equipment for construction workers will increase along with the popularity of smart houses and multi-story apartments, supporting the segment’s expansion.
Regional Outlook
Region-wise, the construction worker safety market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and LAMEA. The Europe region registered the highest revenue share in the construction worker safety market in 2022. This is due to automation and industrialization in Europe which is increasing the need for the market. The usage of worker safety equipment in both new building and refurbishment projects is anticipated to increase in Europe as a result of low mortgage rates. Also, the market is anticipated to be driven by demographic variables such as variations in economic activity and the distribution of income.
