The Global Cargo Security Seals Market was valued at USD 1.15 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 5% from 2024 to 2032. The growth of international trade and logistics significantly drives this market growth. For instance, in February 2023, American Casting introduced a range of customizable security seals designed to meet specific customer needs across various industries.
Governments and international bodies are enforcing stricter regulations on cargo security and safety standards. Compliance with these regulations often necessitates the use of advanced security seals that meet industry-specific standards. For example, the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code mandates the use of tamper-evident seals on shipping containers to prevent unauthorized access and ensure secure handling of goods.
The overall cargo security seals industry is divided into material, product, end use, and region.
The market is segmented by material into plastic and metal. The plastic segment is expected to surpass USD 1 billion by 2032. Plastic security seals are generally more cost-effective than metal seals, making them a popular choice for various applications. Their lower production and procurement costs also make them an attractive option for businesses aiming to secure cargo without incurring significant expenses.
Based on product type, the cargo security seals industry is categorized into bolt seals, cable seals, tamper-evident seals, barcoded seals, and others. The cable seals segment is the fastest growing, with a CAGR of over 7% from 2024 to 2032. Cable seals offer superior strength and tamper-evident properties compared to other seal types. Their robust construction, typically made from steel cables with a protective coating, provides a high level of security, making them ideal for high-value and sensitive cargo.
North America led the global cargo security seals market in 2023, accounting for over 35% of the revenue share. The strong logistics and transportation infrastructure, coupled with stringent regulatory requirements for cargo security, drives the demand for advanced security seals. Major trade hubs and ports in North America also require high-quality security solutions to safeguard goods in transit and comply with international standards.
