Signal Exoskeleton market projected to grow fourteenfold to 2035
Summary
This signal tracks the expected growth of wearable exoskeletons that boost physical capability. The global exoskeleton market is projected to rise from US$1.4b in 2025 to US$19.7b by 2035, about a fourteenfold increase. EY suggests that even this forecast may understate how quickly physical augmentation becomes normal in industrial workplaces. It describes robotics and exoskeletons as spreading beyond manufacturing into healthcare, logistics and knowledge work. Reported deployments already show fewer workplace injuries and higher productivity. For organizations facing labor shortages, EY sees such augmentation as a complement to talent strategies.
