Importance of Electrical Protective Equipment for industrial worker and electrician
MARKET INTRODUCTION
Electrical protective equipment, a form of PPE, offers protection against electrical hazards such as shocks, blasts, and flashes of arcs. The most common types of electrical hazards are arc flashes, and various vendors provide protective equipment against those flashes. Fire-resistant clothing is part of electrical protective clothing, and it has self-extinguishing properties in the fabric used to make the garment. Government authorities are increasingly concerned about the workers' health and safety. Governments of different countries have issued various safety regulations to reduce accidents and uncertainties in the industries.
Several government regulations and standards compel end-use enterprises to use workers' protective equipment in some kinds of work environments. Wearing protective equipment is compulsory for workers in industries such as oil & gas, construction, and manufacturing, among others. For example, according to the U.S. memorandum of 2010 Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), wearing heat- and flame-resistant clothes are mandatory for workers in the oil & gas industry.
MARKET DYNAMICS
Electrical protective equipment is mainly used for the protection of workers and engineers in the power, manufacturing, construction, and oil & gas industries. Insulated gears, protective apparel, and respiratory protection equipment are the segments with a significant market share of the revenue. North America is a significant market for personal protective equipment. Asia-Pacific and the Middle East are the dominant markets due to the region's growing construction activities, which shows the significant growth in the global market for electrical protective equipment. At the workplace, awareness of personal health and safety measures is also a significant growth factor for the worldwide market for electrical protective equipment. Increasing demand for electricity in developing countries and ongoing major projects in countries like China and India to meet future demand has substantially boosted the market demand for electrical protective equipment.
