Industry Insights

Global portable fire extinguisher markets were valued at USD 8.9 billion in 2018. They are expected to grow at 10.2% CAGR between 2019 and 2025. Portable extinguishers are in high demand due to the rising number of fire-related deaths in commercial and residential premises. Market growth will also be supported by strict government regulations that require extinguishers to be installed.

Portable extinguishers are in high demand due to their lightweight and portability. As an emergency response, portable extinguishers can be used to put out the flames and get it under control. The demand for portable extinguishers is also growing due to increased awareness of personal safety and property protection in emergency situations. According to the National Fire Protection Association, (NFPA), fires caused property damage of USD 13.6 Billion in 2016 and resulted in the deaths of 3,390 people. Fire Extinguishing Trades Association and Independent Fire Engineering and Distributors Association (IFEDA), conducted a study to determine the effectiveness of portable extinguishers in 2100 fire situations in the U.K. They found that it was effective in extinguishing the fire in 80% of cases and that the fire department was not required in 75%.

Lightweight extinguishers are also in high demand due to the mandate by the government to install extinguishers into automobiles.

Fireballs are a lightweight and compact extinguisher that is being increasingly popular.

There are many factors that affect the use of portable extinguishers. Market growth is being hampered by this factor. There is no universal product that can be used on all fire types. Because these are the most common types of fire, manufacturers are working to launch extinguishers that are compatible with Class A, B and C fires. ABC-rated extinguishers can be used on fires caused by ordinary combustibles and flammable liquids. BC rating extinguishers can be used on fires caused by flammable liquids or energized electric equipment.

Application Insights

The market can be divided by application into residential and commercial. The largest market share was held by the non-residential segment in 2018, and it is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The market is supported by the rapidly expanding commercial and industrial sectors. The demand for portable extinguishers is increasing due to strict government regulations and fire safety rules in public, industrial and commercial areas.

The fastest expected growth is in the residential segment over the forecast period. This is due to increasing fire casualties, property damage, and safety concerns from consumers. According to the National Fire Protection Association, cooking equipment is the most common cause of fire in homes. Smoking materials were second from 2012 to 2016. Consumer safety concerns are driving consumers to purchase portable extinguishers for their homes.

Product Type Insights

The market for portable fire extinguishers can be divided by product type into dry chemical, carbon dioxide and water. The largest market share was held by dry chemical portable extinguishers in 2018, and they are expected to grow the fastest over the forecast period. Dry chemical is very popular among consumers due to its versatility. It can be used on all classes of fires, including class A, B and C. They are also commonly used in residential buildings because they can be used to combat all three types of household fires. The market is also supported by its low price and versatility.

Due to the high demand for carbon dioxide portable extinguishers in commercial spaces, they are expected to see strong growth. These extinguishers are extremely effective in class B fires and K fires, and leave no collateral or residue. Water and foam extinguishers will also see significant growth in the future. Foam extinguishers' cooling effect reduces the chance of re-ignition and makes them more efficient. The high cost of portable extinguishers poses a problem for growth. Water extinguishers can be purchased cheaply and are often used by consumers. They can only be used to extinguish a class A fire. This is limiting market growth.

Regional Insights
