Evolving design trends
“Continuous innovations in the design of safety harnesses have led to the introduction of lightweight products which offer better shock absorption and stress management, and improved functionality,” says Neelesh Prakash Singh, a lead analyst at Technavio for power research.
The lightweight harnesses offer a greater range of mobility when connected to a lanyard or lifeline. Vendors are also focusing on launching recreational harnesses capable of enhancing the comfort aspect and proper fit.
Ergonomically designed safety harnesses
Ergonomically and anatomically designed harnesses which reduce stress and eliminate injuries and disorders associated with the overuse of muscles, bad posture, and repeated tasks are on the rise. For instance, NEILPRYDE offers safety harnesses under the market name Bomb, which are ergonomically designed products aimed at enhancing the comfort of the wearer for a longer time and also offer superior lumbar support. Other vendors who offer anatomically designed safety harnesses study the ergonomic aspects and incorporate them in the designing stage of the safety harness, thus enabling better functionality and comfort.
Growing popularity of climbing sports
“Climbing sports are among the most popular sports activities around the world. Seeking to capitalize on their growing popularity, vendors in the safety harness market are focusing on expanding their product portfolio for climbing activities,” says Neelesh.
The popular formats of climbing sports activities include speed climbing and bouldering. The growing popularity of activities such as mountaineering, sports climbing, and bouldering in sports clubs is a trend pushing the growth of the market.
