OSH India 2025: 13th Edition to Elevate Workplace Safety

OSH India Expo, South Asia’s largest occupational safety and health (OSH) event, is set to host its 13th edition from 16–18 September 2025 at the Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai. Over the past 12 years, the event has played a key role in elevating workplace safety standards by connecting international exhibitors, global experts, policymakers, and industry leaders under one roof.

The Indian OSH market, valued at USD 811.5 million in 2024, is projected to grow at a CAGR of 22% and reach USD 2,598.5 million by 2030. This year’s edition will be larger than ever, featuring over 300 brands, 150+ exhibitors, 1,500+ products, participants from 13 countries, 150+ delegates, 50+ speakers, and 9,000+ visitors. The expo will highlight innovations in PPE, safety equipment, occupational health services, and electrical safety solutions.

Major exhibitors including Udyogi, BisonLife, UTEX, Honeywell, Aktion Safety, Hilson Footwear, Arvind Ltd, Portwest, Torpedo Shoes, and HS International will unveil their latest offerings. Dedicated areas like the Startup Pavilion and Innovation Zone will spotlight breakthrough solutions, while the OSH India Awards will honour HSE officers implementing transformative safety solutions, with winners to be announced on 16th September at a grand evening ceremony.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India, said,

“The workplace safety sector in India is at a transformative stage, fueled by heightened awareness, regulatory advancements, and rapid adoption of innovative safety solutions. Personal protective equipment alone accounted for 60% of the market revenue in 2024, highlighting its critical role in safeguarding workers across industries such as construction, manufacturing, and healthcare. At the same time, the rising prominence of workplace safety services reflects a shift towards more holistic and integrated approaches to worker protection. OSH India 2025 serves as a pivotal convergence point for industry leaders, government agencies, and innovators to collaborate, showcase cutting-edge advancements, and exchange insights shaping the future of workplace safety. The 13th edition reaffirms our dedication to fostering safer, smarter, and more resilient workplaces that align with global standards.”

The conference will feature workshops and panel discussions covering critical themes, including first response to chest pain victims, using technology to redefine safety metrics, NABL-accredited safety product accreditation, transforming workplace safety culture, addressing occupational hazards faced by sanitation workers, and designing safe electrical installations in buildings.

Key partnerships with industry associations such as IAOH, ITTA, SAMA, IPAF, NFEES, and AIAI reinforce OSH India’s commitment to building a culture of workplace safety. Its collaboration with READ India as CSR Partner extends the event’s social impact by spreading OSH education to rural communities, equipping youth to uphold modern safety standards in future workplaces.

Adding unique attractions, OSH India 2025 will host OSH Everywhere, an initiative to boost safety awareness; the OSH Fashion Walk, showcasing the latest PPE trends; and the OSH Gurukul Conference, offering thought leadership sessions.

With its comprehensive visitor profile—EHS heads, safety engineers, CEOs, consultants, facility managers, policy-makers—OSH India continues to be the ultimate meeting point for the global safety and health community.

The Indian PPE market, worth USD 2.7 billion in 2024, is expected to grow to USD 4.7 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 5.86%, driven by rising demand for gloves, masks, respirators, goggles, and safety footwear. This growth aligns with stricter safety regulations and a growing commitment to protecting India’s workforce, solidifying OSH India’s position as a catalyst for change in the country’s OSH ecosystem.
