Airport stands equipment refers to the infrastructure on an aerodrome apron designated for parking aircraft during loading, unloading of passengers, and the provision of ground services.
The primary product types of airport stand equipment include engine access, landing gear access, wheels, aircraft entry, cabin interior, and others. Engine access systems are designed with an adjustable scissor lift base, providing the necessary height for accessing various areas on the aircraft. These systems are versatile and intended for use with multiple aircraft. They encompass equipment such as passenger boarding bridges, preconditioned air units, stands entry guidance systems, and electrical ground power units with fixed and movable platforms. These tools and systems are integral to aircraft operations as well as maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) processes.

The airport stands equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.21 billion in 2023 to $2.37 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the rise in air traffic, a heightened focus on improving passenger experience, the incorporation of modularity in designs, enhancements in safety features, and increased adaptability to the variability of different aircraft. These elements collectively contributed to the development and success of airport stands equipment during that timeframe.
The airport stands equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.1 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increased investment in research and development, measures aimed at enhancing safety, the provision of customized solutions, improved adaptability to diverse aircraft, and ongoing airport expansion and development projects. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of airport stands equipment with airport management systems, infrastructure upgrades, automation in ground handling processes, integration of smart infrastructure technologies, remote monitoring and control capabilities, and a widespread adoption of IoT (Internet of Things) and sensors to enhance overall efficiency and effectiveness in airport operations.
The airport stands equipment market is poised for growth, driven by the surge in global freight and passenger traffic. Rising demand for air freight transportation, particularly for speedy goods movement and relieving supply chain bottlenecks, complements the uptick in air passenger traffic due to economic expansion and increasing income levels. This surge necessitates robust equipment to sustain airport operations and cater to routine aircraft maintenance, thereby spurring the demand for airport stand equipment. As per the IATA's May 2022 passenger data, global air traffic soared by 83.1% compared to May 2021, primarily led by a significant resurgence in international travel. Moreover, international traffic witnessed a staggering 325.8% growth in the same period, indicating a substantial upsurge. Hence, the burgeoning global freight and passenger traffic are expected to fuel the expansion of the airport stands equipment market.
The escalating demand for cargo charters is set to propel the airport stand equipment market further. Cargo charters, referring to infrequent cargo carriers landing at airports less than fourteen times annually without scheduled service, rely on efficient airport stand equipment for streamlined aircraft parking, boarding, and disembarkation processes. This equipment ensures seamless operations, swift turnarounds, and heightened overall airport efficacy. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), aviation cargo volumes surged by 18.7% in 2021, accompanied by a 13.8% increase in available cargo ton-kilometers (ACTKs) compared to 2020. Hence, the surging demand for cargo charters acts as a driving force behind the growth of the airport equipment market.
Technological advancements represent a burgeoning trend in the airport stands equipment market, as major industry players strive to craft technologically sophisticated equipment for enhanced reliability, user-friendly operations, and streamlined maintenance, consolidating their market presence. For instance, in May 2022, Dabico Airport Solutions, a Dubai-based ground support equipment manufacturer and service provider, recently unveiled an innovative raft equipped with a 400Hz power supply and integrated operational control systems. Designed to aid airlines and airport operators in bolstering passenger and employee safety, operational efficiency, and sustainability, the Dabico 400Hz-eGPU offers reduced operational costs compared to conventional diesel-powered units. Moreover, it curtails pollutants and noise levels, thereby mitigating the environmental impact and enhancing the health and well-being of airport personnel and adjacent communities.
Major players in the airport stand equipment market are placing a heightened emphasis on the introduction of advanced boarding ramps, aiming to provide more sophisticated solutions. These advanced boarding ramps represent specialized systems designed specifically for facilitating seamless boarding and disembarkation processes for aircraft passengers. As an illustration, in August 2023, Aviramp, a UK-based provider of aviation ground handling equipment, unveiled its extended line of remote stand aircraft boarding ramps and bridges under the banner of the 913 series. Developed in adherence to the fundamental safety requisites for aircraft ground support equipment outlined in the International Air Transport Association's (IATA) Airport Handling Manual (Chapter 9, Paragraph AHM 913), the 913 series incorporates various enhancements in its ancillary features, including wheelchair-friendly low-angled slopes, aiming to improve accessibility and inclusivity.
