Industrial Safety Market

Global Industrial Safety Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The global industrial safety market size is estimated to be worth USD 9.99 billion by 2029 from USD 7.19 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of 6.8% from during the forecast period.

Industrial safety plays a big role in practices and measures adopted to ensure occupational safety in various industries. The system is employed for preventing multiple occupational hazards and, in many cases, eliminating the explanation for industrial accidents, thus protecting personnel, the economic environment, and equipment and assets. Moreover, systems for industrial safety are increasingly being demanded in several process industries, including paper and pulp, metal and mining, water and wastewater, power generation, and food manufacturing. Programmable safety systems like safety PLCs are an integral part of safety instrumented systems. Safety PLCs have to be certified with IEC 61508, the industrial safety standard for electrical/programmable electronic safety-related systems. Unlike regular PLCs, a security PLC, alongside a logic solver, has redundancy and other safety diagnostics that ensure the successful execution of required safety instructions.

MARKET DRIVERS

The growth of the global industrial safety market is majorly driven by the mandates for safety regulations, rising demand for safety systems within the oil & gas industry, rising need for reliable safety systems for personnel and asset protection, a technological revolution like 4.0, and growing automation in hazardous industrial areas.

The expansion of the industrial safety market is mostly due to mandates for safety laws. The US government and governments in Europe are working to prevent mishaps by enforcing regulations relating to people and process safety and putting certified equipment, such as explosion-proof sensors, switches, and actuators, in hazardous locations. Safety standards and regulatory measures have been implemented by organizations such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the International Standard Organization (ISO), and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to monitor and improve the efficiency of industrial processes. The expansion of the industrial safety product market has been fostered by laws such as the EU Machinery Directives and OSHA regulations in North America.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

In order to protect personnel, machines, and production lines in the event of an emergency, industrial safety systems must be built. The cost of industrial safety components, as well as the costs of installation, maintenance and repair, place a significant strain on the organization's budget. Small and medium-sized businesses may find it difficult to handle these costs, even while giant corporations can. Furthermore, industrial safety must adhere to government regulations. As a result of technical improvements and new laws, safety standards are routinely changed, putting enterprises under pressure to upgrade their safety systems. Additional safety components and systems will be required as part of this upgrade. As a result, this aspect is a stumbling block, particularly for small and medium-sized businesses.

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES 

The Internet of Things is opening up new possibilities for integrated safety and compliance services. The IIoT may collect data from sensors that detect pressure, level, flow, temperature, and vibration and send it to monitoring systems. The data is transmitted across wired and wireless networks, enabling for real-time analysis, alarms, and potential emergency remedies. Companies can use the IIoT to integrate their activities with safety systems and monitor them in real-time. IIoT enables real-time monitoring, analysis, and control of physical systems, as well as virtual administration of physical systems, resulting in increased performance. During the forecast period, the need for industrial safety is expected to rise due to the increasing usage of IIoT.

MARKET CHALLENGES

Complete machine guarding necessitates a risk assessment that includes input from machine operators, maintenance workers, supervisors, engineers, safety specialists, machine guarding experts, and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) representatives, in addition to guard designers. It's difficult for a designer to foresee all the dangers involved with equipment setup, operation, inspection, and maintenance on their own. When personnel need to reach locations inside machine guards, meticulous planning and execution are required. Inadequate risk assessment can also lead to the omission of important requirements for the design and performance of interlock devices and monitoring components like relays and safety-rated programmable logic controllers, which are employed for protection until further safeguarding procedures are taken.

SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

Global Industrial Safety Market Analysis By Product Type

An emergency shutdown (ESD) system is designed to avoid dangerous conditions. It can start the shutdown of a plant, unit, or equipment. Sensors are utilized to detect undesired situations and logic solvers respond to sensors by taking final factors such as valves and pumps to secure states. In an emergency, an ESD system shuts down the process in a secure and orderly manner, resulting in high demand for this product type.

Global Industrial Safety Market Analysis By Industry

Mandatory industrial safety laws compelled many sectors to put in safety systems for employee safety and asset safety using safety sensors and relays. The expansion in the oil & gas industry require a lot of safety system thanks to the hazardous environment. Therefore, this segment accounts for the central part of the industrial safety market. The developing technologies like the Internet of Things and AI and their pacing incorporation with the system are predicted to foster the global industrial safety market growth in the future.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS

The North American industrial safety market dominated the worldwide market, occupying a share of roughly 30% of the entire revenue. Government initiatives and policies favoring the security of workers and employees at manufacturing facilities and the emergence of Industry 4.0 have contributed to the adoption of industrial safety systems in this region. The Asia-Pacific industrial safety market is estimated to witness the best growth during the foreseen period. The region has witnessed a surge in the number of industrial facilities in developing countries, including Taiwan and India. The increasing number of commercial facilities is predicted to fuel the expansion of the global market in Asia-Pacific.
