Market Overview:
The global hearing protection devices market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing awareness about the importance of hearing protection and rising demand for these devices from various end-use industries. In terms of type, earplugs are expected to dominate the market during the forecast period, owing to their low cost and easy availability. However, earmuffs are expected to witness higher growth rates due to their superior noise-cancelling properties as compared with earplugs. By application, defense and aviation is projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period, owingtothe increasing demand for these devices from military forces across different countries.
Product Definition:
Hearing protection devices are earplugs or earmuffs worn to protect hearing from loud noises. They are important because over time, exposure to loud noises can cause hearing loss.
Earplugs:
Earplugs are small silicone rubber devices that are inserted into the ear canal to reduce the level of external sound. They are most effective when used in combination with hearing protection devices such as ear muffs or plugs, which amplify sounds beyond the normal ability of human hearing.
The market for earplugs is expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period owing to increasing industrialization and urbanization, leading to an increase in noise pollution across regions.
Earmuffs:
Earmuffs are devices that are used to amplify the sound and reduce the external noise. They can be used by people with hearing loss, age-related hearing problems or those who have been exposed to loud noises in a work environment. Earmuffs block out low as well as high frequencies, which makes them an ideal choice for use in hazardous environments such as military combat zones and construction areas where workers encounter extreme noise levels on a regular basis.
Application Insights:
The defense and aviation application segment led the global hearing protection devices market in 2017. This is attributed to the rising number of military personnel, increase in flight operations and rise in awareness regarding personal safety. For instance, according to a 2016 U.S Department of Defense (DoD) study, it was estimated that around 1,000 DoD members die each year due to earplug-related incidents such as plugs falling out or getting stuck during training or duty situations. Moreover, an increasing number of terrorist attacks across the globe has resulted in increased demand for hearing protection among armed forces worldwide. These factors are anticipated to drive growth over the forecast period.
Construction and manufacturing sector is also expected to witness significant growth owing to high product demand from this sector for protecting employees against hazardous noise levels at construction sites and manufacturing units where sound level exposure can reach up to 89 decibels (dB).
Regional Analysis:
Europe dominated the global hearing protection devices market in 2017. The growing number of industries and increasing noise exposure are some of the major factors contributing to the growth of this regional market. In addition, stringent regulations laid down by various regulatory bodies, such as Health and Safety Executive (HSE), European Industrial Gases Association (EIGA) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI) are further expected to drive demand for these products over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising industrialization coupled with an increase in defense spending by countries such as China, India, Japan among others is expected drive product demand across this region. In addition, favorable government initiatives aimed at improving employee safety standards are also likely to contribute towards increased demand for these products in APAC during future years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing awareness about the benefits of hearing protection devices among people, especially those who are exposed to loud noises at work or during recreational activities.
- Growing demand for custom-made and comfortable hearing protection devices from consumers.
- Rising number of incidents involving noise-induced hearing loss, which is driving the demand for Hearing Protection Devices market globally.
- Technological advancements in the design and manufacturing of these devices that offer better comfort and performance features to users.
