Shields are auxiliary defense mechanisms that shield the entire face from a range of dangers. They shouldn't be worn instead of safety glasses or goggles. Hitting the eye with space particles or sparks is by far the most common way that eye accidents happen. As a result, they provide a danger to the face, and this is where the shield is useful. They offer an additional layer of eye protection as well as more face covering. Thus, an increase in industrial accidents across a range of end-use industries is expected to spur market expansion.

In 2021, the face shield market's largest region was the Asia Pacific. During the projection timeframe, it is expected that this area will remain to have the highest growth. The main drivers of this market are the expanding populations of China and India as well as the expansion and upgrading of the medical services in Southeast Asian nations. The need for face shields in these sectors is increasing along with the growth of the building and industrial sectors in these areas.
