The Global Industrial Wearables Industry Market was valued at US$ 4.64 billion in 2021 and is predictable to reach US$ 15.8 billion by 2030 which is projected to attain a CAGR of 14.6 % during the forecast period from 2021- 2030.
Wearable devices are referred as products that are controlled by the electronic components and software fused into clothing, or it is worn on the body as an accessory such as a smartwatch, smart glasses, fitness trackers, body-mounted sensors for monitoring and transmitting biological data for healthcare purposes.
Market Dynamics
The adoption of wearable technology is not only limited to consumers but becoming increasing apparently in the industry. Factors attributed to the rise of the global industrial wearable market are owing to enhanced workplace productivity, efficiency, and safety in the industries such as logistics, aerospace & defense, manufacturing, logistics among others. Such devices are primarily made from electronic components for collecting data, providing customized features depending on users & desires, and tracking activities. It also imparts the worker to perform the assigned task with more ease and by reducing work-related accidents. A report published by International Labour Organisation (ILO) describes that every 15 seconds a worker dies from a work-related accident or disease and 153 workers have work-related accidents.
Wearable devices help in improving safety by enhancing the productivity and connectivity of the workers on the field by delivering data, applications, and documents in real-time. Availability of smart glass embedded with optical data capture and voice recognition technology, smart safety vests at construction sites by tracking and delivering alerts to the field workers have augmented the market growth during the forecast period. In addition, the rise in the young workforce across several industry verticals, and swift workforce-related safety standard regulations have elevated the adoption of industrial wearables products. However, the short life span of wearable devices is restraining the market growth.
