Riot Control Equipment Market Trends

Collaborative endeavors to develop advanced riot control technology are fostering lucrative growth in the market. Partnerships between law enforcement agencies, technology institutions, and industry players are yielding innovative solutions. For instance, in May 2023, the Coimbatore City Police and the PSG Institute of Technology created a tear smoke launcher mounted on a drone designed for riot control. This device, equipped with a 12-megapixel camera and a flight range of up to 2 km, can reach a maximum altitude of 50 meters. Such collaborative efforts result in the development of more sophisticated and effective riot control equipment, addressing the evolving challenges of public order maintenance.

The increasing awareness about the importance of public safety is driving the growth of the market. With rising instances of civil unrest and protests globally, governments and law enforcement agencies are prioritizing measures to maintain public order. The heightened awareness has led to investments in advanced riot control technologies including non-lethal weapons and protective gear. This has led to market expansion as authorities seek effective means to ensure the safety of citizens and law enforcement personnel.
