Global Self-contained Breathing Apparatus Market 2017-2021

This market research study identifies Avon Protection Systems, Honeywell, MSA, and Scott Safety as the leading players in the global self-contained breathing apparatus market. A comprehensive analysis of this market is also presented by application (firefighting, recreational, and industrial), by product (closed-circuit and open-circuit), and by geography (the Americas, APAC, and EMEA).

Self-contained breathing apparatus industry analysis 

Many changes are being introduced to the existing regulatory frameworks due to the rising number of accidents and injuries. To reduce the number of major accidents, both local and federal agencies are establishing stringent regulations. Technavio's self-contained breathing apparatus market report identifies that the stringent safety regulations will be one of the primary growth drivers for the market till 2021. NFPA 1404, NFPA 1852, and NFPA 1981 are the national fire protection association (NFPA) standards developed for self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Later, the NFPA 1981 and 1982 standards associated with open-circuit SCBAs for emergency services and personal alert safety systems (PASS) went through various changes. In addition, lens integrity testing, new voice intelligibility requirements, end-of-service time indicator, requirements for emergency breathing equipment, and intrinsic safety standards were enhanced by making changes in the NFPA 1981 standards. Technavio's self-contained breathing apparatus market research analysts predict that this market will post a revenue of more than USD 1 billion by 2021.

The global self-contained breathing apparatus market is witnessing growth in the Americas due to the rising number of firefighters who exclusively use SCBA mask as a respiratory protective equipment (RPE). The self-contained breathing apparatus market forecasts the industry to grow in the region throughout the predicted period due to the rising investments in firefighter SCBA equipment such as handheld nozzles, automatic nozzles, and firefighting monitors, both automatic and manual.

They are also focusing on widening their customer base by developing specialist and general personal respiratory protection solutions.

Key vendors in this market are -

• Avon Protection Systems
• Honeywell
• MSA
• Scott Safety

Other prominent vendors in the market include Cam Lock, Drägerwerk, INTERSPIRO, and Intech Safety.

Segmentation by application and analysis of the self-contained breathing apparatus market

• Firefighting
• Recreational
• Industrial

The self-contained breathing apparatus is extensively used in the fire service industry as a critical component of personal protective equipment (PPE). These breathing apparatus help firefighters to work effectively and safely in oxygen-deficient areas and areas filled with toxic gas, fumes, and air contaminants.  Factors such as climate change, agriculture burning, lightning, and carelessness are resulting in forest fires. This in turn, will boost the self-contained breathing apparatus market growth during the forecasted period.

Segmentation by product and analysis of the self-contained breathing apparatus market

• Closed-circuit
• Open-circuit

The closed-circuit SCBAs are used for long and narrow tunnels and passages. Hazardous gases such as carbon monoxide and various combustion products in the mining industry can cause death. Closed-circuit SCBA equipment is designed to supply breathing gas for longer duration and used during the mine rescue. They also provide a lifesaving oxygen inhale system for an extended duration. Closed-circuit SCBAs are highly preferred over open-circuit SCBAs because they weigh less in comparison to open-circuit units.
