Global Motorcycle Helmets Market Quantitative Analysis: Market Scale is $4195.23 million in 2024

Global Motorcycle Helmets Market Overview

According to Global Market Monitor, the global motorcycle helmet market size will be $4195.23 million in 2024 with a CAGR of 7.15% from 2024 to 2029.A motorcycle helmet is a type of helmet (protective headgear) used by motorcycle riders. The primary goal of a motorcycle helmet is safety - to protect the rider's head during impact, thus preventing or reducing head injury and saving the rider's life. Some helmets provide additional conveniences, such as ventilation, face shields, ear protection, intercom, etc.

Motorcycle Helmets Growth Drivers

Motorcycle helmets reduce the risk of head injury by 69% and the risk of death by 42%. In the event of a crash, motorcyclists need adequate head protection to prevent one of the leading causes of death and disability - head injuries. Wearing a motorcycle helmet with a visor will prevent wind from blowing in your face and improve visibility. Reducing wind is especially useful in cold weather, as cold winds can cause windburn, which is similar to sunburn. Helmets that cover the ears also reduce wind noise, resulting in a quieter ride. Reducing wind noise makes it easier for the rider to hear what is going on around them and to stay aware of any dangerous situations the rider is approaching. Helmets hold hair in place. Wind can blow longer hair into the rider's eyes, causing discomfort and obstructing the rider's view of the road. Rain, dust storms, and other bad weather make riding a motorcycle more dangerous. Helmets prevent rain from entering the rider's eyes and face, thus preventing reduced visibility and distractions that can cause the rider to lose control of the motorcycle. These advantages of motorcycle helmets will promote the development of the motorcycle helmet market.

Policies and Regulations Stimulate the Development of the Industry

The European motorcycle helmet safety standard ECE22.05 test certification has undergone a major update, coming into effect in 2023. The new standard imposes strict requirements on manufacturers to sell their products in Europe only after they have been certified by ECE22.06 regulations from January 2024.

The number of motorcycles in China is nearly 100 million, and the number of electric bicycles has exceeded 300 million, which has become an important means of transportation for People's Daily travel. According to statistics, the number of deaths caused by craniocerebral injury in motorcycle and electric bicycle road traffic accidents accounts for more than 80% of the total number of deaths, wearing safety helmets can effectively reduce the risk of head injury and death.

Starting from July 1, 2023, the mandatory national standard "Motorcycle and electric bicycle Occupant Helmet" (GB811-2022) was officially implemented, and electric bicycle occupant helmet was included in the standard for the first time. The new standard has refined the size and type of the helmet, which is more suitable for the shape characteristics of the Chinese head. At the same time, it is clear that for Class A helmets produced or imported before the implementation date of the new standard, the requirements of the new standard should be met from the seventh month from the date of implementation.
