Powered Air Purifying Respirators Market Projected To Exhibit Robust CAGR of 6.1% For The Forecast Period From 2022 To 2030: Grand View Research Inc.
The global powered air
purifying respirators market size is anticipated to reach USD 3.81 billion by 2030, registering a
CAGR of 6.1% over the forecast
period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Favorable
government regulations about employee safety and the emergence of various
infectious biohazards are anticipated to drive the demand for powered air
purifying respirator (PAPR). The rising awareness levels about employee health
and safety, coupled with the increasing cases of industrial fatalities, are
anticipated to spur market growth over the forecast period. Safety standards by
regulatory agencies, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) and the European Commission, are expected to fuel the growth of PAPR
industry over the forecast period.
The omicron
COVID-19 variant is responsible for spreading COVID-19 rapidly, specifically
among the healthcare workers and first-respondents that are actively
confronting the pandemic situation. Thus, to avoid the spread of the virus, several
government authorities across the globe have recommended the use of proper
personal protective equipment (PPE) including PAPRs. The emergence of
biological viruses, such as Zika and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, and the
shifting trend towards proactive measures in the pharmaceutical sector are
expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period. Rising demand
for multi-purpose products is expected to drive the R&D of efficient &
durable PAPRs for preventing the spread of biological hazards.
Rapidly growing
industries, such as automotive, metal forming, manufacturing, glass making,
paper & pulp, particularly in the developing regions like Asia Pacific and
Central & Latin America, are anticipated to increase the demand for
respiratory protective equipment, including PAPR, to guard their employees
against inhalation of vapors, particulate matter, and gases. Companies are
focusing on increasing their manufacturing of these products to eliminate the
shortage of PPE products across the globe. For instance, in April 2020, ILC
Dover LP boosted their production process of a new PAPR hood named Sentinel EZ
BioHood, designed for healthcare workers attending to COVID-19 infected
patients.

The industry
growth is expected to be driven by the emergence of various infectious
biohazards and the recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the
pandemic, the use of these products by doctors and healthcare workers has
increased as they offer maximum protection from coronavirus as compared to
reusable elastomeric half-face piece respirators and N95 FFRs. From the beginning
of 2021, all the business started their operations normally, due to which, the
demand for powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) increased from various
industries, such as oil & gas, petrochemical, industrial, and others.
Powered Air Purifying Respirators Market Report Highlights
- The full-face
masks segment accounted for a share of more than 51% of the global revenue
in 2021 owing to the optimum protection provided by these products to
healthcare workers as they include vapor filters, gas filters, and
particle filters
- The penetration
of PAPR in the healthcare industry is expected to witness a significant
from 2022 to 2030 on account of its ability to provide a higher Assigned
Protection Factor (APF) than reusable elastomeric half facepiece
respirators and N95 FFRs
- North America
region held the largest revenue share of the global market in 2021 because
stringent norms are enforcing employers in the region to adopt powered
air-purifying respirators to ensure the safety of their employees
- The product
demand in India is likely to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% over the forecast
period on account of the rising awareness regarding health hazards and
diseases caused due to exposure to harmful particulates at workplaces
- Market players
are investing in R&D activities for the development of innovative
products. For instance, in June 2021, Optrel AG launched Softhood, a PAPR
system hood, based on the principle of overpressure, for breathing and
face protection in a dusty environment
With the rising
number of COVID-19 cases, healthcare workers are at a high risk of contracting
respiratory illnesses during checkups and operations of patients, which is
expected to boost the demand for these products in the U.S. Stringent
regulatory norms regarding employee health and safety in high-risk activities
in the U.S. are expected to boost the market growth over the forecast period. A
growing number of large-scale infrastructure investments, including hotels and
medical hospital projects in New York, Missouri, and Los Angeles, are expected
to drive the market. Growing demand for floor space expansion in various
industries has led to an increase in construction and renovation projects in
the country. Thus, the growing construction industry is expected to have a positive
impact on product demand.
Generic
strategies adopted by the companies usually include mergers & acquisitions,
distribution network expansion, and product portfolio expansion. For example,
in July 2020, Gentex Corp. acquired Aero Parts Australia Ltd. (APA), a supplier
of military equipment, commercial air, and life support, in New Zealand and
Australia. This acquisition will further enable Gentex to cater to its
customers in the aforementioned countries. Major players are investing in
R&D activities to launch unique products to increase their market share.
For instance, in August 2022, Optrel AG launched the e3000X PAPR system, which
protects workers from particles, such as smoke, aerosols, or dust. Some
prominent players in the global powered air purifying respirators market
