Global sales of personal flotation devices are likely to equate over US$ 6 Bn in revenues by the end of 2028. Sales will remain concentrated in the US, with Western European countries complementing demand during the assessment period.

Use of personal floatation devices during recreational activities continues to be the biggest market opportunity for manufacturers. Increasing emphasis on recreational boating safety has been instrumental in driving up sales in many markets. The USGC mandate on having at least one USGC-approved wearable life jacket for each person on board in the US has pushed demand in the country. Stringency in regulations as per the new EU regulation 2016/425 has led to the move from PPE II to PPE III, and led to stricter evaluation requirements for the products. It is highly likely that stringency in mandates will continue to augment sales during the assessment period.
The report finds that manufacturers are focusing on making incremental improvements in their product offerings to consolidate their position in the market. The incremental improvements encompass both technology and materials – integration of GPS, personal locator beacon, low profile chassis, and lifting loops are some of the integrations made by manufacturers.

Floatation Aids and Near Shore Buoyant Vests Dominate Sales

Demand for floatation aids and near shore buoyant vests continues to account for bulk of sales in the personal floatation devices market. Collectively, over US$ 2 Bn worth of floatation aids and near shore buoyant vests were sold globally in 2017. The report projects demand for floatation aids and near shore buoyant vests to remain robust during the period of assessment.
