Middle East Riot Control System Market Analysis

The Europe, Middle-East and Africa Riot Control Equipment Market is expected to register a CAGR of 3% during the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a moderate impact on Europe and the Middle East and Africa's riot control equipment market. With the COVID-19 pandemic affecting the economy of the region, the sale of riot control equipment witnessed a decline in the region due to a decrease in the production of such equipment, owing to the fact that due to the pandemic, various companies reduced the workforce, which resulted in companies not being able to meet production deadlines. A decline in the pandemic led to increased production, with various companies boosting the workforce to meet deadlines. Moreover, the development of new and advanced less-lethal systems by companies is likely to lead to the market witnessing growth in the near future.

The increasing violent protest and riots in countries like Nigeria, South Africa, France, Russia, and Sudan are generating demand for the procurement of new riot control equipment. Moreover, the development of advanced less-lethal weapons, like dropping low-velocity ammunition, pepper sprays, and other less-lethal weapons, are expected to help the growth of the market during the forecast period. However, the policy changes by the governments and regulatory bodies resulting in a ban on the use of offensive equipment are anticipated to hamper the growth of the riot control equipment market in these regions.
