Global PPE Market to Grow US$43.6 Billion by 2030

Value of personal protective equipment industry to reach $128.1 billion during the next six years.

June 20, 2024

The global personal protective equipment (PPE) market is expected to grow by roughly US$43.6 billion by 2030. With a value of more than $79.5 billion this year and $84.5 billion in 2024, Grand View Research estimates the industry will reach approximately $128.1 billion with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2% industrywide during the next six years.

Increasing worker safety awareness is expected to increase the demand for PPE during the forecast period. COVID-19 also has significantly influenced the PPE market, leading to a surge in demand in the healthcare, military, and law enforcement sectors for protective gear such as masks, gloves, and gowns.

In the U.S., the PPE market is subject to strict government regulations and standards that ensure the safety and efficacy of protective equipment. Regulatory compliance is a key factor that shapes the market, with manufacturers focusing on responding to emerging health threats and technological advancements—influencing the design, production, and distribution of PPE.

Additionally, continued innovations toward lighter, more comfortable, and high-quality PPE are expected to bolster market growth. A demand for protective gear that combines safety with aesthetics and advanced technology will spark both further market expansion as well as increased awareness of the importance of secure workplaces and employee safety.

Globally, rising demand for contract-based PPE manufacturing is more common in North America and Western Europe. Improved technical support and price-performance ratio of products also escalated the demand for private labels.
