Industry Outlook

As per the CARE Report, the global two-wheeler helmets market witnessed a CAGR of 4.5% in unit sales between CY19 and CY24, primarily fuelled by robust demand in the Asia-Pacific region. Notably, India and China, two of the largest markets for two-wheelers, drove this growth.

Looking ahead, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% in value terms between CY24 and CY29, primarily fuelled by increasing urbanisation, rising disposable incomes, heightened safety awareness, and government regulations mandating helmet use. The continued growth of the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in India and China, will remain a key driver of this expansion (Source: CARE Report).
