- Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) during the forecast period. India is the fastest-growing motorcycle market in the world due to many two-wheeler buyers in the country. The growth of helmets is not only being led by passenger motorcycles but also by more extensive and more expensive two-wheelers. In addition, the expansion of infrastructure in rural areas is driving sales of two-wheelers, and, in return, the demand for helmets is expected to increase.
Market Dynamics:
In established countries, two-wheelers are mainly used for leisure events and are therefore more often owned alongside cars. In addition, motorcycles are often used as a simple means of transportation in emerging countries. The bicycle is also gaining a foothold in the commercial sector. They are mainly used for grocery delivery and e-commerce product delivery. In addition, post-lockdown demand for bikes has increased remarkably as the bike-sharing business has reached momentum. This coupled with the growing awareness of on-road protection, is expected to drive the growth of the motorcycle helmet market over the forecast period.
One of the biggest challenges to the growth of the motorcycle helmet market is the lack of road safety awareness in emerging markets. The number of traffic fatalities is increasing worldwide; however, there is still a lack of traffic awareness among drivers. According to the WHO, the number of road deaths worldwide rose from 1.15 million in 2000 to 1.35 million in 2016. The lack of awareness of road transport is more significant in developing regions and least developed countries. According to UN reports, users of inferior helmets suffer more severe injuries in accidents. Therefore, the lack of road safety awareness in developing and low-income countries is a significant obstacle to the growth of branded driving protective gear products.
Asia Pacific held the most significant shares in 2021. The Asia-Pacific region dominated the market with a share of more than 45% of total sales in 2018 due to the presence of a large number of two-wheeler owners in developing countries such as India, Indonesia, Vietnam, and China. In addition, major manufacturers such as Caberg S. P. A., Arai Helmet Ltd, HJC Europe S. A. R. L, Dainese S. P. A., and Shoei Co.Ltd. Constantly launch innovative products to attract a large number of customers.
