Overview of the GCC fire extinguishers market

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) fire extinguishers market is anticipated to grow rapidly and will post a CAGR of more than 17% during the forecast period. The increasing focus on protecting assets and investments of a business infrastructure will drive the growth prospects for the GCC fire extinguishers market during the forecast period.
