Airport passenger screening systems encompass the integration of electronic and mechanical systems, technologies, and procedures employed at airports to inspect individuals traveling by air. The primary objective of these systems is to ensure flight safety by identifying and preventing the boarding of prohibited items, potential threats, or dangerous materials.
The main types of airport passenger screening systems include metal detectors, advanced imaging technologies, full-body scanners, explosive trace detectors, and magnetostatic detectors. A metal detector is an electronic device designed to identify the nearby presence of metal. The various products involved in this category include passenger screening and carry-on baggage screening, which are utilized by international and domestic airports, including both commercial airports and military airports.
The airport passenger screening systems market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides airport passenger screening systems market statistics, including airport passenger screening systems industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with airport passenger screening systems market share, detailed airport passenger screening systems market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the airport passenger screening systems industry. This airport passenger screening systems market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The airport passenger screening systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.09 billion in 2023 to $2.31 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the expansion of global trade, economic growth, the boom in e-commerce, optimization of supply chains, and the volatility of fuel prices.
The airport passenger screening systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.32 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to initiatives focused on sustainability, changes in trade policies and geopolitics, recovery from the pandemic, regulatory changes, and challenges related to capacity. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of technology, advancements in technology, infrastructure investments, and a heightened emphasis on sustainability and green initiatives.
The anticipated increase in the number of passengers is set to drive the airport passenger screening systems market in the future. Passengers, individuals traveling by airplane who are not involved in piloting or serving on the flight, benefit from airport passenger screening systems that enhance safety and overall air travel security. As reported by the International Air Transport Association in March 2022, the total number of air travelers reached 47% in 2021 and is expected to reach 94% in 2023. Notably, North America recorded a 94% total number of air travelers in 2022, projected to increase to 102% in 2023. Consequently, the increasing number of passengers serves as a driving force for the airport passenger screening systems market.
The rising issue of smuggling in airports is expected to propel the airport passenger screening systems market in the future. Smuggling, the illegal transportation of objects, substances, information, or people across borders or in violation of regulations, poses security threats. Airport passenger screening systems, equipped with advanced X-ray and body scanner technologies, play a crucial role in aviation security by detecting and preventing threats such as weapons, explosives, and contraband. According to the Austrian Ministry of Finance in June 2023, Vienna Airport conducted around 45,000 custom controls in 2022, resulting in more than 4,000 seizures. Notably, 37.5 kg of various drugs and 659 narcotics in tablet form were seized during the same period. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of smuggling in airports is driving the airport passenger screening systems market.
The limited availability of skilled professionals is expected to impede the growth of the airport passenger screening systems market. The demand for expertise in operating and maintaining advanced security technologies, including airport passenger screening systems, exceeds the current workforce capacity. This shortage poses challenges in system implementation, efficiency, and overall security effectiveness. As highlighted by Advantis Global in April 2023, there could be a global talent shortage of over 85 million people by 2030, resulting in approximately $8.5 trillion in unrealized annual revenues. Thus, the limited availability of skilled professionals acts as a restraint on the growth of the airport passenger screening systems market.
Key players in the airport passenger screening systems market are introducing cutting-edge products such as OPENGATE to revolutionize people screening and boost market revenues. For instance, CEIA USA Ltd., a leading security screening devices provider, introduced OPENGATE in July 2023. This new-generation weapons detection system features an open design, enabling rapid and automated screening of individuals carrying items such as purses, backpacks, and luggage to detect mass casualty shooting weapons. With its lightweight and portable design, weighing only 25 pounds, OPENGATE installs quickly without cords or obstructions, providing a seamless screening experience.
In March 2023, Tek84 Inc., a security screening and surveillance company, acquired Integrated Defense and Security Solutions (IDSS) Corp. for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition aimed to enhance Tek84's High Technology X-ray Security Scanning Solutions. IDSS Corp, a provider of airport scanner technology, contributed to improving the passenger baggage screening process at airports through innovative solutions.
