Key Market Trends

Body Armors Application Expected to Lead the Market

Homeland security concerns have made it necessary for all countries to have well-trained defense forces. Requirement for army training is increasing owing to the increasing bilateral tensions between the nations.
For homeland security, soldiers are meant to fight, for which they require weapons, vehicles, and body shields to protect them.
During wars, soldiers have to wear body armor and carry weapons, such as guns, grenades, etc. Hence, these are to be made available to military personnel during wars. Every year, more individuals join the army, creating a further demand for armors and weapons.
Increasing terrorist attack threats, such as the ISIS attack in some of the countries of Middle East are leading to an increase in counter terrorist operations and preventive measures.
Countries across the globe invest heavily in maintaining the sufficient supply of all such goods in anticipation of war. Armor materials are used extensively to produce body armors, weapon armors, armored vehicles, tankers, etc. Hence, the demand for armor materials is driven considerably by the increasing homeland security concerns.

North America to Dominate the Market

The North American region dominated the global market share in 2018.
The United States is one of the largest consumers of armor materials globally. This is majorly owing to the rising homeland security concerns due to terrorism. The United States was the largest military spending nation with the largest military forces globally.
There are emerging geopolitical and bilateral tensions between the major nations. Furthermore, the increasing terrorist activities lead to the increasing procurement of armor materials to manufacture defense equipment.
These factors will drive the demand for armor materials in North America over the forecast period.
