Visiongain has published a new report on Chemical, Biological, Radiological & Nuclear (CBRN) Defence Market Report 2021-2031: Forecasts by Type (Chemical, Biological, Nuclear, Radiological), End Use (Defence, Civil & Commercial), Equipment Type (Detection, Protection, Contamination, Simulation & Training). PLUS Profiles of Leading CBRN Companies and Regional and Leading National Market Analysis. AND COVID-19 Recovery Scenarios.

Global CBRN market was valued at US$ xx billion in 2020 and is projected to reach a market value of US$ xx billion by 2031. The market is driven by factors such as growing conflicts among nations. Further, stockpiling of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) by countries and threats from terrorist groups are the factors that are expected to fuel the market. Spending by military forces on increasing soldier survivability in the war zone against CBRN threats and emerging biological-threats among the general population are the factors driving the CBRN market.

COVID-19 Impact on CBRN Market
