Fall Protection Equipment Market Growth and Recent Trends by 2028

The fall protection equipment market is expected to grow from US$ 2,934.86 million in 2021 to US$ 4,606.61 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% during 2021–2028.

Rapid industrialization across the developed and developing nations is one of the major factors driving the market's expansion. Occupational hazards are growing increasingly prevalent due to the lack of adequate safety procedures at various manufacturing, mining, and other industrial sites. Comparing to other countries, the US is more concerned about the safety and health of its workers, which is driving the adoption of fall protection equipment in the country. To oversee safety norms and procedures, the country has established certain authorities such as Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI). OSHA is a health and safety regulations and compliance organization that gives workers 10-hour and 30-hour awareness training on OSHA regulations and standards relevant to various vocations at the workplace. However, increasing focus on safety practices at work and improving government regulations for workers’ safety in Europe and Asia have driven the market. Rising construction activities and the growing oil & gas sector in Asian countries such as India and China, owing to the rising population, are expected to bolster the market growth during the forecast period. The rise in urbanization and growth in the oil and gas industry are among the key factors supporting the Fall Protection Equipment market growth in the MEA (the Middle East & Africa) and SAM (South America) regions.
