The markets for thermally protective clothing and ancillary products
are fragmented. There are significant and specific segments of these
markets. To get these products to the stage of being classed as
thermally protective involves fiber and polymer makers, those that might
weave the cloth of various types, and those manufacturers that design
and manufacture the clothing that is usually made to comply with some
government specifications. Within each segment there is a variety of
players from the government organizations that create, develop, and
enforce the regulations and standards, the raw material suppliers, the
fiber and fabric manufacturers, the mills and fabric producers and
weavers and the finished goods’ manufacturers and suppliers and
distributors. Simply put, the supply chain is highly complex.
In this report, BCC Research identifies the top 10 companies in the thermally protective clothing market, and explains the rationale behind these selections. Factors taken into account include technical innovation, market leadership, and commitment to this market via investment in products.
When selecting these top 10 companies, BCC Research looked across the industry spectrum and selected the most active and significant contributors while recognizing that there are many other contenders. Some of these “significant others” are included but to a less detailed extent than the top 10 companies.
Heat- and flame-resistant clothing, including firefighters’ turnout gear for structural, proximity, and wildlands’ fire service, as well as industrial fire resistant garments for use in electric and gas utilities or in industrial applications where electric arc and flash fire are hazards. Ancillary components for fire fighting including respirators and some components such as respirators are included for information, though not as specific components of the top 10 companies in thermally protective gear. Important definitions, regulations, materials, technologies, market size, and anticipated growth are discussed.
