The availability of counterfeit products and the inefficiency of the face shield in completely preventing the spread of the virus are expected to limit the growth of the face shield market. Products such as masks are still the preferred alternatives to face shields. A study published in Physics of Fluids by AIP publishing used visualizations to know how effective face shields are at reducing the spread of the virus, and the result showed that the face shield did block the initial forward motion of the simulated cough or sneeze, but the expelled droplets were still able to move around the visor and were spread out to the larger area. The availability of counterfeit products and the inefficiency of the face shield in completely preventing the spread of the virus are expected to limit the growth of the face shield market. Face shield manufacturers are using 3D printing machines to manufacture the face shield. 3D printing uses computer-aided design to create three-dimensional objects through a layering method, and it is also called additive manufacturing. For instance, in April 2020, Adidas worked with Carbon to manufacture a 3D-printed face shield, and the face shields are used to support healthcare organizations and underserved communities. Anatomiz3D is a 3D modelling and 3D printing company for healthcare in India. Anatomiz3D manufactured cost-effective 3D printed face shields for COVID-19 protection and delivered 3D printed face shields for frontline workers.

For instance, according to 25 Construction Safety Statistics for 2021, the American construction industry comprises 6% of the US workers but witnesses around 20% of the fatalities, the highest number of fatalities compared to any other industry. Inadequate safety and health measures have a negative impact on both the construction and built environments, resulting in fatalities, injuries, and diseases. Predictive analytics is playing a prominent role in the building finishing contractors market to simplify risk management, manage financials and resources, and allocate budgets. Predictive analytics refers to a technique used to process large data sets and infer actionable information and behavioural patterns. The software analyses data collected from subcontractors, materials suppliers, and design plans to examine and control risk factors. Predictive analytics helps the project manager to predict and avoid delays in manpower availability and equipment shortages; collects weather data; and predicts the conditions for the company to take preventive actions against weather changes to avoid loss of material and labour costs.

Automotive plastics refers to a polymer used in automotive vehicles to design and produce parts that provide mechanical strength, withstand shear stress, wear metal stress, offer aesthetic appearance, and are utilized in making the automotive body. These plastic components mainly replace the various metal parts in automobiles as they provide similar properties such as stiffness, flame retardancy, and others. The main types of automotive plastics are polypropylene (pp), polyurethane (PU), polyvinylchloride (PVC), polyamide (pa), and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (abs), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polycarbonate (pc), and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT). Polypropylene (PP) automotive plastics refer to a thermoplastic polymer that is tough, rigid, and crystalline. The various applications of automotive plastics are interior, exterior, and under the bonnet, which are used in conventional/traditional vehicles, and electric vehicles.
