Frost & Sullivan: Respirator Manufacturers to Develop Innovative Solutions to Overcome Economic Challenges in North America PR Newswire MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, Nov. 14, 2012 -- Mergers and acquisitions used to integrate new technologies and optimize distribution networks will be key in determining future market positions MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Widespread fears caused by terrorism and disease in the early 2000s caused a boom in the respiratory protection market that led to a surge in demand and funding. However, as time has passed and the occurrence of such events has decreased, demand has leveled off, leading to a decline in total respiratory protection revenue. Frost & Sullivan's Chemicals, Materials & Food practice (www.frost.materials.com) finds that the respiratory protection market earned revenue of $1.01 billion in 2011 and estimates this to reach $1.14 billion in 2016.
