Heavy industrialization and growing trade along with a booming manufacturing sector in Asia Pacific have contributed to large-scale expansions of industrial activities in the past decade. Traditionally active industrial regions of North America and a revival of manufacturing in Europe have also been contributing to market growth. This has resulted in a growing need for safety equipment in order to protect a global workforce. Moreover, stringent safety regulations by various organizations such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, the European Commission and Japan Industrial Safety & Health Association (JISHA) has further boosted the market for protective clothing in recent times. A growing need for hygiene and contamination-free environment in the food and pharmaceutical industries has further boosted the market for protective clothing.

The global demand for chemicals has resulted in higher growth numbers of the chemical industry in the past few decades. As many chemicals are harmful to the human body, standard manufacturing procedures dictated the use of protective clothing for personnel safety in these industries. With a growing interest from various organizations and stringent implementation of safety standards, the demand for chemical defending garments has been analyzed to be the highest of all industrial protective clothing segments. Chemical defending garments thus accounted for over 35% of the market share in 2012 and this market is expected to grow with healthy growth numbers in the coming years.

Due to the imminent threat of a breakout of fire in various industries and building safety standards, flame retardant apparel has also been a major segment in the recent past. This segment is expected to grow rapidly over the next few years due to continual expansion of industries and the need for fire-safety. The need for clean environments and negligible levels of contamination in food, pharmaceuticals, research laboratories and other such industries is expected to boost the market for clean room clothing over the next few years. As a result, this segment is expected to exhibit the highest growth numbers between 2013 and 2019.
