A significant part of the demand in the global welding safety market will arise from the construction and manufacturing sectors, which jointly accounted for nearly 50% of the overall market in 2015.The demand for welding will increase over the forecast period, especially from the manufacturing industries in developing countries. As welding is extensively used in the manufacturing industries, the rising demand for welding will, in turn, increase the demand for welding safety.Welding is one of the major processes in the construction industry. The global construction output is expected to grow by 85% to reach $15 trillion by the end of 2030. The global construction industry will grow at an annual rate of 4% until 2030,which is higher than the projected global GDP growth rate of 3% per annum.The implementation of robotic welding technology and automated welding technology will significantly limit the market growth as the demand for manual welding will decline. Automated welding solutions offered by companies like Lincoln Electric and Gullco International help end-users execute welding with the highest efficiency. Increased output, improved quality, and reduced overall cost propel endusers to adopt robotic welding. This will decrease the demand for welders, in turn,decreasing the demand for welding safety equipment in the market.
