Analysts’ Viewpoint on Industrial Protective Footwear Market Scenario
Companies in the industrial protective footwear market are focusing on high growth applications such as construction, manufacturing, mining, oil & gas, and chemical industries to keep their business growing post the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The industrial protective footwear market is estimated to grow at a decent pace, due to the steady rise in demand for lightweight protective footwear in various industries. Industrial footwear has integrated digital sensors and actuators that decipher the information sent by sensors to avoid slipping or loss of control in industrial facilities. Developing countries have been implementing regulations for workers’ safety, which is increasing the demand for safety shoes for industrial use. Thus, companies in the industrial protective footwear market should increase their R&D in industrial safety footwear and electrical safety footwear that are used in most of the industries. Manufacturers should tap into incremental opportunities in slip-resistant and puncture-resistant soles in industrial footwear to broaden their revenue streams.

Overview of Global Industrial Protective Footwear Market
The global industrial protective footwear market is primarily driven by rapid industrialization; growth in end-use industries such as construction, mining, food, pharmaceutical, and oil & gas; and rise in government initiatives to enhance employee safety at workplaces. Digital technology integration in personal protective equipment (PPE) is the current trend in the market. For instance, industrial electrical safety shoes are being developed with the use of the digital technology for the safety of workers. UVEX Group, a major producer of industrial protective footwear with headquarters in Germany, is incorporating digital sensors and actuators into its line of industrial protective footwear. The safety footwear can interpret the information sent by sensors and actuators and take the appropriate action to prevent sliding or losing control. Work boot electrical safety shoes are used in sectors such as mining and construction to guard against potential job dangers such as falling items and sharp nails. Protective footwear reduces the intensity of the impact of falling items and cuts from sharp objects.
