Face Shield Market Forecast Hit by Coronavirus Outbreak, Downside Risks Continue to Escalate

Face Shield Market: Introduction

A face shield is a personal protective equipment (PPE) used for face protection. It acts as a barrier for the facial area and the mucous membranes of the eye, lip, and nose. The potential end-users of face shields can be identified in the healthcare sector, manufacturing sector, mining, oil & gas industry, and fire prevention. A face shield protects the face from the contamination of dust; sprays, splashes, and spatter of body fluid; and harmful chemicals. Depending upon the end-use industry and application, face shields are available in different sizes and designs.

Key Drivers of the Global Face Shield Market

Rapid expansion of the healthcare sector and ongoing investment in biotech laboratories is estimated to drive the demand for face shields. Health care workers and researchers are always at high risk of bacterial and viral contamination. Over the years, face shields have been accepted as a better alternative to goggles and disposable masks in this sector.
Certain rules and regulations by federal and international governments are also identified as a key market driver. As per the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), employers should compulsorily ensure that employees have suitable face protection if they are exposed to certain hazards from chemical gases, flying particles, harmful radiation, molten metal, acids liquids, and liquid chemicals.
Also, the WHO (World Health Organization) guidelines suggest that PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) play a vital role in the prevention of rapid spread of infection during bacterial and viral outbreaks.

Opportunities in the Global Face Shield Market

Availability of multiple raw materials and ongoing research and development activities suggests tremendous opportunities for new product development. Also, the increasing number of local manufacturers and growing consumer awareness about personal protection and safety at workplaces is expected to boost the future market demand for face shields.
