Report Description


The global ceramic armor market size is projected to expand at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to increasing concern for soldier security and safety as well as wide defense budget allocation by government agencies across countries.

Ceramic armor can be understood as types of armor primarily used in armor vehicles and safety gears worn by defense and military personnel to ensure higher chance of safety for the lives of soldiers in case of worst case scenario. Due to rising military conflicts across borders and emergence of several military threats, governments across the globe focus on building novel armor materials including ceramics to deliver high protection from ballistic elements.

Ceramic Armor Market Outlook

In the defense sector, ceramics constitutes as an essential part of modern armor systems due to its advantages in manufacturing modern safeguarding gear. Owing to its characteristics such as low weight, ceramics is widely used to achieve high performance of body armors. Ceramics has many benefits in defense armor in terms of weight and design flexibility.

  • Increasing focus of manufacturers on designing body armor with enhanced features, including survivability, sustainability, lethality, and mobility is a key factor driving the market.
  • Increasing use of silicon boride ceramic matter as bulwark for fence rifle bullets, by virtue of its properties, including superior hardness and strength is expected to drive the market.
  • Growing investments by several governments in ceramic armor for aircraft and vehicle armor applications present a key driver of the market.
  • Lack of strong protection of ceramic body armor plate against the impact acts as a major challenge that can hamper the market growth.
  • Growing need for military modernization programs and lighter armor systems are anticipated to create opportunities for manufacturers in the global market.

Ceramic Armor Market Segment Insights

Alumina segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace

Based on materials, the global ceramic armor market is divided into alumina, silicon carbide, ceramic metal composite, boron carbide, and others. The alumina segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period as alumina provides value-benefit ratio, leading to high modulus of elasticity, high refractoriness, and high hardness. On the other hand, the silicon carbide segment is anticipated to hold a key share of the market in the coming years due to high use of the material in armored helicopters and body armors. The material is widely used by several manufacturers as it meets the stringent rules for the use of armor matter due to its essential functioning nature.

Defense armor segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR

On the basis of applications, the market is segregated into body armor, aircraft armor, defense armor, and marine armor. The defense armor segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period as defense organizations are focusing on increasing their capacity, owing to rising cross-wars and border instability. The body armor segment, however, is anticipated to account for a major market share during the forecast period due to rising need of body armor among first responders including police officers, firefighters, and Emergency Medical Service (EMS) personnel especially in the US and some major economies of Europe.

Ceramic Armor Market By Applications

Defense sector to account for a large market share

Based on platforms, the global ceramic armor market is divided into defense, homeland security, and civilians. The defense sector is expected to account for a large share of the market during the forecast period as ceramic armor has wide applications in various defense products and purposes for protection of vehicles, soldiers, and building infrastructure. The civilians segment is anticipated to hold a key share of the market in the coming years as governments across regions are passing laws on the use of body armor by civilians, owing to rising public mass shootings and terror attacks.

North America is anticipated to constitute a key market share

In terms of regions, the market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the forecast period due to rising terrorist activities and illegal border crossing along with massive defense funds allocation especially in the US. The market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period as military expenditure was rapidly increased by major economies in the region to support modernization of its armed forces and rising intense border conflicts.
