Market Trends of Anti-Pollution Mask Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Anti-Pollution Mask Market according to our research experts:
Efficiency in Air Purification with Easy Breathing is the Prime Consumer Demand
PM 2.5 particles from sources such as vehicle exhaust or from burning crops and forest fire, tobacco smoke and burning lamps cause coughing and shortness of breath. An N95 mask is a NIOSH-approved respirator that gives 95% protection from the air pollutants that are found outdoors. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also permits it as a surgical mask. Due to this reason, there is a rising demand for similar protective masks by the people who are alert regarding the risks associated with ignorance of pollution. For instance, in addition to the above, Prana Air, an Indian company has installed a rechargeable-battery-run micro-ventilator that removes the unpleasant build-up of carbon dioxide at different fan modes.
Asia Pacific leads the Region-wise Anti-pollution Mask Market
The Asia Pacific region is drastically affected by pollution due to the large population and the boom is continuous. As this population is developing and urbanizing, the pollution gradient is also peaking. According to Reckitt Benckiser's brand, Dettol, air pollution is the fourth-largest cause of death in the world. In India alone, one in nine people die as a direct result of air pollution and that’s anticipated to 6.5 million premature deaths every year. China even installed the world's largest air purifier in its Northern region to moderate pollution levels. Recently, air pollution hit alarming levels in Southeast Asia, where smoke from wildfires in Indonesia affected thousands. Owing to the threatening issues, the manufacturers in the region are coming up with anti-pollution masks as an easy to adopt remedy against air pollution. Thus, the anti-pollution mask market is expected to grow in the future.
