Globally, every process industry—such as oil & gas, chemical & pharmaceutical, mining, energy & power, and food & beverage—is required to follow safety measures formulated by the 1996 National Electrical Code, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC), and the Increased Safety "Ex e," along with various other certifications for products used in hazardous environments. These measures are followed by installing effective and efficient explosion-proof lighting products that maintain safety standards and allow smooth functioning of processes in the above-mentioned industries. This is a major factor contributing to the growth of the explosion-proof lighting market.

LED lights to dominate the explosion-proof lighting market, by light source

LEDs are the most energy-efficient lighting options and can be used to drastically reduce the overall operating cost in industrial facilities. They are 4–5x times cheaper as compared to fluorescent lamps while considering the total cost of ownership. Additionally, LEDs are not as sensitive to temperature as other lighting technologies and therefore can be easily operated in extreme hot and cold environments. Furthermore, the increasing number of industrial facilities is expected to influence the penetration of LEDs for explosion-proof lighting application.
