The global ballistic protection market size was valued at US$ 14,836.5 million in 2023 and is projected to grow at 5.6% CAGR from 2024-2030. Ballistic protection refers to protecting a person’s body against the attacks from projectiles of different sizes and shapes. Ballistic protection is used by homeland security, law enforcement and military, it includes personal protection equipment such as ballistic helmets, boots, gloves, body armors, and structural reinforcements for vehicles used for air, marine and land platforms.

The key market drivers of the market are growing need for aramid because to its qualities which include flexibility, strong resistance, and low weight as aramid is an ideal for border troop security and safety, rising awareness towards the protection and safety of armed forces, adoption of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) and other types of sensors which can be integrated into helmets, body armor, and other gear to enhance situational awareness, these sensors can detect ballistic impacts, measure shock and blast exposure and relay data back to command centres.

The main factors limiting the market are the strict rules against volatile organic compound emissions during the production of ballistic protection-based equipment across different industries which are enforced by various national and international regulatory organisations and high cost associated with ballistic protection. The growing opportunities in the market are rising demand for ballistic protection in the defence sector, increasing mergers, partnership and collaboration amongst major market players. The emerging trends of the market are demand for mobility, evolvement of multi-threat protection gear and increasing demand for multifunctional armor.

Key Developments

  • In 2022, The U.S. Army awarded BAE Systems a contract in to provide maintenance and technical support services for its M993 Multiple Launch Rocket System carriers and a fleet of Bradley Fighting Vehicles.
  • In January 2023, A new patented black textile structure known as Black 230 was created by Fratelli Citterio, an Italian company that specialises in high-tech ballistic materials. Black 230 effectively clings to a variety of UHMWPE UDs and paints.

Ballistic Protection Market Dynamics

Innovations in materials, such as lightweight composite materials (e.g., Kevlar, Dyneema, and ceramic armors), enhance the protective capabilities of body armor and vehicle protection systems. Development of smart textiles and sensor-integrated gear for real-time monitoring and enhanced situational awareness in combat zones. These textiles are embedded with sensors and advanced materials that can monitor vital signs, body movement, and even detect the location of impact during combat. Smart textiles also allow for the development of adaptive armor, which can change its properties in response to external stimuli, such as becoming more rigid upon detecting an incoming threat.
