Market Share of Military Gas Mask Industry
The market is highly consolidated with the presence of a few players holding significant shares in the market. Some of the most prominent players in the military gas mask market are 3M, Avon Protection plc, Honeywell International, Inc., MSA Safety Incorporated, and Drägerwerk AG & Co. KG amongst others. With the competition growing in the industry, manufacturers are focusing on introducing newer models in gas masks that enhance both situational awareness, in terms of visibility and ergonomics of the users. As such, the focus is currently on manufacturing masks with flexible polyurethane lenses that give a wide field of vision, and facepieces made up of durable and soft rubber material for better ergonomics. In addition, the use of newer, advanced materials and technologies may aid in producing better and more effective masks, which may eventually propel the replacement of the traditional gas masks existing with many militaries and first responders around the world. Hence, the focus of research on newer materials and technologies may help the players in the long run.
