Product Definition:
protective sports equipment is anything that is worn or used to protect the body during physical activity. This includes helmets, pads, mouth guards, and other gear. Protective sports equipment is important because it can help reduce the risk of injuries.
Head and Face:
Head and face protection are important in all sports activities, but they are particularly crucial in contact sports such as rugby, football, ice hockey and basketball. The increasing number of these sports being played globally is expected to be the key factor driving the global protective sports equipment market over the forecast period.
Trunk and Thorax:
Trunk and thorax are the parts of a car that contains the engine and passenger compartment. The trunk is used to store luggage, hence it is larger in size as compared to the driver’s side.

Application Insights:
Racing was the largest application segment in 2016 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. Protective sports equipment are widely used in racing events such as motocross, road racing, dirt biking, skiing and snowboarding among others. Rising popularity of extreme sports has also fueled demand for protective sportswear during recreational activities such as hiking and mountaineering. Ball games are anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing segments owing to increasing participation rates across all age groups especially in developing countries like India and China.
The use of protective sportswear while participating in water sports or engaging into aquatic activities is mandatory since these products provide comfort by reducing friction against skin without compromising with safety requirements.
