Global Bullet Proof Jacket Market Size, Trends, and Growth Opportunity, By Type (Soft, Hard, Composite), By End-User (Defence, Law Enforcement, Civilians), By Protection Level (II, IIIA, and IIIA+, III and III+), by region, and forecast until 2027.
Global Bulletproof Jacket Market
The global bulletproof jacket market was valued at USD 1.05 billion in 2021 and is slated to reach USD 1.67 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 3.61% from 2022 to 2027.
A bulletproof jacket is a type of body armour that helps to deflect projectiles fired from firearms and any flying debris from different explosions, as well as to lessen penetration to the torso. The torso is protected against bombs, bullets, and knives with the use of a bulletproof vest. They are often created by overlaying woven or laminated fibres with metal or ceramic ballistic plates.
Market Drivers
The military industry's rising need for soft bulletproof jackets is anticipated to drive the market's expansion. The soft bulletproof jacket shields security personnel and soldiers from shotgun blasts and small-caliber handguns by using layers of laminated and woven fibres. Moreover, soft jackets, which are quickly expanding in the bulletproof jacket industry, typically contain ballistic plates. Throughout the anticipated period, the market for bulletproof jackets is predicted to develop due to the expansion and rise of the military sector. This is mainly because military spending is rising, which is driving up the cost of body armour and bulletproof clothing for the army's dismounted troops. To replace minor equipment for the soldiers, including handguns, helmets, and cutting-edge protective gear in future years, the French government launched the O-NYX initiative as part of the defence expenditure plan.
Market Restraints
The forecasted expansion of the market is being hampered by the high cost of bulletproof jackets. Due to the adoption of new, cutting-edge technology and the use of goods of higher calibre, the price of a bulletproof jacket has increased. These considerations suggest that the market for bulletproof jackets will likely hinder growth throughout the forecast period. Market expansion is hampered by an increasing number of defective bulletproof jacket casings. For instance, Toyobo settled a claim involving the sale of faulty fibre used in bulletproof vests in 2018 by paying USD 66 million. The U.S. federal and local law enforcement agencies and Toyota signed this agreement.
Market segmentation
The global bulletproof jacket market is segmented by type, end user, and protection level. Types include soft, hard, and composite.By end-users such as defence, law enforcement, and civilians. By protection level, such as II, IIIA and IIIA+, III and III+, and IV.
Regional Analysis
The global bulletproof jacket market is segmented into five regions: the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. Aforementioned region's expanding disposable affluence, North America is likely to dominate the bulletproof jacket industry. Furthermore, increased government expenditure and initiatives on civilian protection and safety, as well as defence, will drive market expansion in this region. As a result of the growing use of cutting-edge technology, Europe is anticipated to experience the quickest growth during the projection period. The market expansion in this region will also be further accelerated by rising military and defence sector spending.
