Non-Powered Air Purifying Respirator Market Size

The market for non-powered air purifying respirators was worth $9.4 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a rate of roughly 4% per year from 2024 to 2032. This is because more people are getting sick with infectious diseases. Non-powered air-purifying respirators are very important for keeping infections from spreading in hospitals and other healthcare settings. They protect medical professionals from harmful chemicals, liquids, and gases that are in the air, which makes the market seem better.

Also, the fact that more and more people are getting contagious infections is making these respirators more popular. Governments are actively encouraging the use of safety gear and face masks to control infections because they know how important respiratory protection equipment is for keeping workers safe. The CDC recently approved a plan for reusing and cleaning NIOSH-certified elastomeric respirators. They also gave Emergency Use Authorizations for FFRs and other respirators in the ongoing fight against the coronavirus.

Non-Powered Air Purifying Respirator Market Trends

The non-powered air purifying respirator sector has a big problem with fluctuating raw material prices, especially for natural gas and crude oil. When the prices of these important commodities go up, such when oil went above $110 per barrel in March 2022, the cost of the synthetic polymers used in respirators also goes up.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration says that crude oil prices have been quite unstable, which has affected many businesses. This price volatility makes it hard for supply and demand to match up in the crude oil market. But even with these problems, the growing use of electrospinning technology looks like a good way to solve them. Also, the market is growing because people are paying more attention to safety at work and the government is making rules that are hard to follow, including OSHA standards.

Non-Powered Air Purifying Respirator Market Analysis

The part of the non-powered respirator market that can be used again is predicted to make more than USD 3.5 billion by 2032. This is because the government is doing more to help, especially in the healthcare sector. The U.S. FDA says that new elastomeric respirators, such as cartridges, purifiers, and filters, are very important for the future of workplace safety. The CDC and NIOSH recently authorized 3M's reusable elastomeric half facepiece respirators. They said that its low cost and long life were two important reasons for helping to ease the shortage of N95 FFRs.

By 2032, the medical and healthcare industry is expected to be worth about $3.5 billion. The medical and healthcare sector is seeing a big rise in the use of non-powered APRs because of the growing investments by both local and foreign corporations in new COVID-19 research centers. NIH gave VUMC $8 million in September 2022 to establish the new BioSafety Level 3 research facility.

North America region

According to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the number of people using the internet throughout the world reached 5.16 billion in 2023. This is expected to push the online distribution channel for non-powered air purifying respirators (APRs) to grow at a rate of around 7.5% per year through 2032. There is a big increase in the demand for non-powered APRs in online stores.

The COVID-19 epidemic also sped up the growth of e-commerce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, retail e-commerce sales around the world grew by 27.6% in 2020. Many stores started using omnichannel methods like "buy online, pickup in-store" (BOPIS) and "buy online, ship from store" (BOSS) to help the segment develop even more.

The North American market for non-powered air purifying respirators reached USD 3.95 billion in 2023 and is expected to increase at a 3% CAGR until 2032. This is because of strict safety rules and more people being aware of how important worker safety is. Demand is being driven by the area's strong industrial base, especially in the US and Canada. In addition, the market is growing even faster because of new technologies and the use of new respiratory protection solutions.

The presence of key market players and ongoing investments in research and development are also contributing to the market's expansion. Furthermore, the rising incidence of respiratory diseases among workers is highlighting the need for effective protective equipment.
