High Visibility Clothing Market: Overview
- High visibility warning clothing is necessary to signal the presence of workers who work in dangerous conditions, in luminosity conditions, in day time (including in bad weather conditions: mist, rain, etc.), at night time (including headlights), or while working in places where adequate lighting cannot be ensured (for instance, mines and working in pipes and tunnels)
- Traditionally, yellow vests were worn by emergency services; however, in more recent times, such clothing comprises a reflective tape that reflects more than 80% of light, making it highly visible
High Visibility Clothing Market: Regional Overview
- Asia Pacific is the dominant and fastest growing high visibility clothing market. Europe accounted for second largest position at the global level, with the U.S. accounting for major market share in the North America region.
- The market for high visibility clothing in North America is expanding at a notable pace due to industrial expansion. Policies such as ‘America First’ and the recent movement against racism in the U.S. affected the communal stability in the region, which in turn is likely to boost the growth of the market.
- Outbreak of COVID-19 across the globe has hit the U.S. and other countries hard due to imposition of lockdown. Moreover, slowdown in production and lesser attendance of employees are anticipated to slowdown the demand for high visibility clothing in the North America region during 2020.
High Visibility Clothing Market: Market Trends
- Demand for low cost products has been rising significantly across industries, which can meet the high visibility criteria set by regulatory bodies
- Most industries focus on buying products that are comfortable and durable in order to minimize the cost to the company buying safety equipment/clothing
High Visibility Clothing Market: Drivers, Opportunities, and Restraints
- Several regulations in various regions are currently evolving to help secure a better health and safety compliance record in the future to take care of modern occupational hazards. Regulatory bodies and numerous independent associations are compelling industries to stringently comply with guidelines of labor regulations. These regulatory bodies imply disciplinary action to enhance the usage of safety products. This is a key factor driving the use of personal protective equipment such as high visibility clothing and headgear.
- Increase in safety standards and awareness about workplace safety has created new opportunity in the high visibility clothing market. Companies have undertaken initiatives to comply with mandates of regulatory bodies to create employee safety awareness and avoid the risk of hazards that may cause injury, while handling heavy equipment at nighttime. These laws in terms of employee and workplace safety are mandatory.
- In the absence of a government body, such as OSHA in the U.S. or the U.K.’s Health and Safety Executive, companies in the UAE have formed a partnership to share information on health and safety risks and best practices. Build Safe UAE (BSU), as the partnership is known, presently has 88 members.
