Law enforcement segment to dominate the non-lethal weapons market, among end users
Law enforcement plays a vital role in the protection of right to life, safety and security of a person. The increasing demand for non-lethal weapons has resulted in the growth of the law enforcement segment at a comparatively higher CAGR during the forecast period, primarily owing to huge investments made by major players for the development of non-lethal weapons in applications such as riot control, cross border control, and many others.
The directed energy weapons market projected to grow at the highest during the forecast period
The directed energy weapons are subsegment of product type of non-lethal weapons. This market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to development of advanced technologies such as active denial systems (ADS) or “pain ray” by major market players in the Asia-Pacific and North American regions. The demand for laser-equipped weapons has increased to control riots and cross border trespassing, primarily as these weapons have the ability to disperse larger crowds and offer more efficiency in riot control operations, in comparison with direct contact weapon technologies (tear gas, rubber bullets, smoke grenades, and so on).
Asia-Pacific & the Middle East to be the opportunistic markets for non-lethal weapons business
The global non-lethal weapons market is dominated by North America, as of 2015, owing to technological advancements, and rising incidences of terrorism and civil unrest in the region.

This rapid growth of the Asia-Pacific market can be attributed to innovative technology solutions for non-lethal weapons and aiming to manufacture them at the lowest possible cost. The Asia-Pacific market is driven mainly by increasing investments in China, South Korea and India for the development of multifunctional non-lethal weapons in military as well as law enforcement applications.
