Key Trends in the Market

A life jacket is a garment which provides protection from drowning by keeping the mouth and nostrils of a person above water. It is generally yellow or orange in colour which makes spotting it in water easy. It is made up of lightweight materials like nylon and polyester, hence it weighs much less than the average weight density of human beings.

  • Growing concerns regarding water injury and accidents are positively influencing the life jacket market growth. Life jackets are available in diverse sizes at affordable prices, can prevent accidental drownings, and provide extra comfort and mobility in water.
  • One of the crucial life jacket market trends is the growing popularity of water sports such as paddleboarding, swimming, and kayaking, among others. Water sports are widely preferred as fun as well as stress-relieving activities among all age groups and are known to improve physical and emotional well-being.
  • The introduction of stringent government regulations to ensure the safety of marine transportation and water sports is positively impacting the demand for life jackets. Moreover, the life jacket market demand is being aided by the growing popularity of beach tourism and cruising for rejuvenation and recreational activities. Life jackets play an essential role in ensuring the safety of passengers and tourists and lowering the risk of injuries.
