En garde: The industry squeaked by the recession but revenue rebounds will continue growing steadily

Personal Protective Equipment Manufacturing

En Garde

The Personal Protective Equipment Manufacturing industry managed to fare well during the recession. Despite lower employment numbers, companies can't skimp on protective gear for employees, as losses due to job-related injuries can amount to much more than the cost of gear. After staying afloat in 2008 and 2009, revenue started to expand more rapidly, and this trend is expected to continue through 2017.

Firms in this industry manufacture personal protective equipment. This includes protective equipment for hands and feet, face and eyes, ears and the respiratory system. This industry also manufactures ergonomic and fall protection equipment. This industry does not include protective clothing.

This

report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
