Asia Pacific Region to Hold a Significant Share of Reflective Material Industry

The Asia Pacific region is witnessing robust growth owing to the flourishing automotive industry in the region. The tapes are used in automobiles to increase their visibility in low-light, dark, and foggy conditions. Therefore, the surging production of automobiles in countries such as India and China is impacting the market growth positively. Moreover, the introduction of favourable government initiatives to improve road safety is further accelerating the market growth. For instance, the Indian government in 2020 instructed the use of reflective tapes in vehicles to avoid accidents due to hazy weather and fog. Moreover, rapid industrialisation and the rising demand for employee safety in the construction industry are increasing the demand for reflective materials, further augmenting the market growth.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), nearly 1.35 million people die from road traffic crashes each year. This is increasing the demand for road safety products such as barricade tapes, barriers, speed brakes, markers and reflectors, which use various reflective materials, hence aiding the market growth. Moreover, the healthy growth of various industries, including oil and gas, construction, aviation, and automotive, use reflective materials extensively to enhance safety. This is further propelling the market growth. The rising demand for safety helmets painted with reflective material to avoid injuries and accidents in various industries is providing further impetus to the market growth.

Reflective Material: Market Segmentation

Reflective material is a material that consists of tiny glass beads, which reflect light to the source. It is used in hind-end jackets, running gears, professional safety uniforms, and biking equipment, among others. As it appears brightest to an observer near the original light source, it can help the eye perceive in low-light conditions and prevent accidents.
