Global Bulletproof Helmet Market 2016-2020

Global bulletproof helmet market forecast

According to the bulletproof helmet market analysis, the global bulletproof helmet market is anticipated to grow at a steady rate and will post a CAGR of more than 5% during the forecast period. The increasing demand for bulletproof helmets arising due to various law enforcement activities will drive the growth prospects for the global bulletproof helmet market during the forecast period. Some of the factors that determine the need for proper law enforcement across regions include political, social, and socio-cultural elements. For instance, India is focusing on security cooperation, economic integration and the modernization of police forces through the Modernization of State Police Forces (MPF) Scheme. This scheme also reduces the dependence of state governments on the Army and the Central Armed Police Forces for the purpose of controlling law and order issues in the state by strengthening and equipping the State Police Forces. Furthermore, in APAC, the increasing instances of terrorist attacks, rising flow of terrorist fighters from countries in the Middle East such as Syria and Iraq, and groups espousing support for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) result in the enhancement of domestic law by the government.

The emergence of global players will foster the growth prospects for the global bulletproof helmet market until the end of 2020. Since the adoption rate of modernized equipment for armed forces across various regions such as Central and South America, Central and Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia is low, a large number of global players across the globe are entering the market. Furthermore, the industry analysis shows that the recent increase in cross-border terrorism, terrorist activities, and stringent government regulations will encourage various global players to expand their market presence.
