The new market research report from Technavio provides a breakdown and analysis of the archery equipment segments by technology.

“Of late, the vendors are using carbon nanoparticles in their archery equipment owing to several benefits that they offer. The application of carbon nanotubes in archery equipment reduces weight, increases hardness, minimises friction and improves durability and strength- to- weight ratio, resiliency, and wear resistance. Moreover, carbon nanotechnology provides straightness to the arrows, giving them better accuracy,” says Brijesh Kumar Chaubey, Lead Analyst, Consumer & Retail, Technavio Research.

Analysts have estimated the bows and bow accessories segment to be the largest market segment during the predicted period. Much of this segment’s growth can be attributed to the recent increase in the number of archers, especially women archers, and new product launches. The availability of a vast array of bows that can be used for both target archery and bow hunting will result in this segment’s impressive market share of more than 59% by 2020.
