The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Safety Headgear Market Driver
One of the key factors driving growth in the safety headgear market is the increasing number of road accidents. One of the major challenges motorbike riders face is the increasing number of road accidents, which is attributable to low-grade road transport infrastructure and the rising number of automobiles plying on roads. Road accidents often result in several injury-related impairments in riders, which could result in disabilities. Road accidents often result in several chronic health complications that can lead to various forms of disabilities. Therefore, the growing awareness among people about the implications of road accidents is making them more conscious and encouraging them to adopt various protective motorbike riding gear. Globally, motorcyclists are increasingly adopting various add-on accessories, such as visors and helmet displays, to avoid distractions. All these factors have accelerated the adoption of protective motorbike riding gear and are driving the growth of the global safety headgear market.
Key Safety Headgear Market Trend
The adoption of smart textiles and advanced technologies is a safety headgear market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. The adoption of smart textiles not only improves comfort but also helps the armed forces withstand the harshest of environmental conditions. Smart textiles that are integrated with electronics and nanotechnology will help the armed forces in combat situations. Smart textile-based materials are equipped with nanotechnology and electronics, which plays a major role in the development of high-tech military equipment such as headgears. Also, modern helmets are equipped with sophisticated technology like global positioning systems (GPS). Regulatory frameworks will enable the higher adoption of smart textiles and advanced technologies for safety headgears, especially for armed forces like military, defense, and law enforcement agencies, resulting in further growth of the focused market.
Key Safety Headgear Market Challenge
The fluctuations in raw material prices will be a major challenge for the safety headgear market during the forecast period. The safety headgear, which includes helmets, suits, knee guards, elbow guards, and boots, is manufactured using several raw materials based on their functions. Although the most preferred material for a protective motorbike riding suit is leather, technological advances in materials are contributing to the demand for durable synthetic leather riding suits with proper padding and safety measures. The price of these materials is subject to change and fluctuates based on the changes in petroleum prices. Apart from the factors above, the fluctuation in petroleum prices also affects the transportation costs of raw materials and final products. The market is highly competitive, which restricts the vendor from increasing the price of the end-products and leads to a reduced profit margin for them. Hence, all these factors are expected to have an adverse impact on the growth of the global safety headgear market.
