Technavio has released a new market research report on the global riot control system market, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% between 2016 and 2020. The agencies involved in riot control operations use less lethal weapons such as whips and batons. The demand for non-lethal weapons (NWLs) and small drones is significantly increasing due to the rising conflicts across the world. The Americas dominate the global riot control systems market, where the law enforcement agencies in the US and Canada are best equipped with the upgraded weapons.
The new industry research report from Technavio discusses in detail the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.
“Since there are just a few companies in this industry, companies are entering into mergers to increase their market share and establish a larger geographical presence. Vendors are investing funds in bringing new products like rubber bullets, tear gas and directed energy weapons (these can stop vehicles) to manage rioting crowds. These products are designed to help not just police departments but peacekeeping personnel to keep the peace and manage troublesome situations,” says Abhay Singh, Lead Analyst, Aerospace & Defense, Technavio Research
