Global Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) is a respirator used to protect workers from air pollution. PAPRs is composed of headband and fan assembly, which can inhale ambient air polluted by one or more pollutants or pathogens, actively remove (filter) a sufficient proportion of these hazards, and then deliver clean air to the face or mouth and nose of users. They have a higher specified protection factor than filter masks (such as N95 masks). Powered Air Purifying Respirator are widely used in industry, pharmacy and healthcare, oil and gas. This report studies the global market of powered air purifying respirator.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) market finds that the global Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) market reached a value of USD 1099.35 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 1414.47 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.29% during the forecast period.

Particularity of COVID-19 epidemic

For the powered air purifying respirator market, the most direct impact is undoubtedly the substantial increase in sales this year. The demand for powered air purifying respirator by medical staff in hospitals and clinics is increasing rapidly. powered air purifying respirator can be used in various applications of health care. Because they provide higher respiratory protection coefficient than N95 FFRs and reusable elastic half-mask respirator, powered air purifying respirator are suitable for using when aerosol-generating procedures are performed, by hospital first receivers, or when the respirator user is not able to wear a tight-fitting respirator. Under the influence of the epidemic, governments of various countries have issued social distance restriction policies, and some industries, especially labor-intensive enterprises, have a large number of employees in the production process. Therefore, these factors will promote the growth of powered air purifying respirator demand under the epidemic situation, thus promoting the rapid development of powered air purifying respirator industry.

Bargaining power of suppliers

The bargaining power of suppliers is also described as the market of inputs. Suppliers of raw materials, components, labor, and services (such as expertise) to the firm can be a source of power over the firm when there are few substitutes. If you are making biscuits and there is only one person who sells flour, you have no alternative but to buy it from them. Suppliers may refuse to work with the firm or charge excessively high prices for unique resources.

Powered air purifying respirator are made of various materials, with superfine fiber materials and active fibers as the core filter materials, which can not only protect large particles of dust and aerosols, but also protect toxic vapors and gases. Other materials include batteries, plastics and so on. The bargaining power of suppliers of batteries and plastics is relatively low because there are many suppliers in the market. However, the bargaining power of suppliers is relatively higher for the core filter materials.

Threat of new entrants

Profitable industries that yield high returns will attract new firms. New entrants eventually will decrease profitability for other firms in the industry. Unless the entry of new firms can be made more difficult by incumbents, abnormal profitability will fall towards zero (perfect competition), which is the minimum level of profitability required to keep an industry in business.

A company's power is also affected by the force of new entrants into its market. The less time and money it costs for a competitor to enter a company's market and be an effective competitor, the more a company's position may be significantly weakened. An industry with strong barriers to entry is an attractive feature for companies that would prefer to operate in a space with fewer competitors.
