- Press Release -

Increased awareness about safety and globally accepted regulations by companies have significantly increased demand for industrial IoT-integrated smart PPE solutions, especially in oil & gas, manufacturing, and construction industries, to ensure workers’ safety in various work environments. Mounting demand for smart PPE is due to the fact that, IIOT-integrated PPE delivers the best real-time preventive maintenance solutions. Besides, active flash PPE integrated with OSRAM-guided lights provide visibility even in wet working conditions. Development of smart flame and chemical-resistant materials, along with integration of improved materials for aesthetics and ergonomics to reduce workplace injuries and satisfy OSHA guidelines, is poised to surge smart PPE demand, globally.

The global smart PPE market is poised to expand at a steady CAGR of close to 6%, and near a valuation of US$ 3 Bn by the end of 2030.
