The global explosive trace detection market, valued at approximately USD 1.58 billion in 2023, is anticipated to grow with a remarkable compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4% from 2024 to 2032. The expanding adoption of Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) systems is driven by the increasing need for stringent security measures in critical infrastructure, transportation hubs, and large public events due to rising terrorism threats and geopolitical conflicts.
Explosive Trace Detection systems are pivotal in identifying trace amounts of explosive materials, ensuring public safety and countering smuggling activities. The rising global air passenger traffic, which increased by 36.9% in 2023 compared to 2022, has fueled demand for advanced detection technologies in airports and transportation facilities. Furthermore, regulatory mandates imposed by governments and international organizations to enhance public safety bolster the market's growth trajectory.
Advancements in ETD technologies, such as Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) and Automated Colorimetrics, have revolutionized the detection process, offering greater sensitivity, faster response times, and enhanced portability. These innovations improve operational efficiency in dynamic environments, such as border crossings, stadiums, and international events, where security requirements are continuously evolving.
North America dominated the market in 2023, with a substantial share owing to robust investments in transportation security and advanced ETD solutions. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is poised to register the fastest growth during the forecast period, driven by the increasing number of transportation hubs, expanding regional aviation, and heightened focus on public safety.
