X-Ray Security Screening System Market - By Component (Solution, Service), By Type (Product Screening, People Screening), By Application (Government, Commercial, Transportation [Airways, Railways, Roadways]) & Forecast, 2023 - 2032

X-Ray Security Screening System Market Size

X-Ray Security Screening System Market size was worth more than USD 3 billion in 2022 and is projected to witness over 5% CAGR from 2023-2032. Surge in the number of large shopping complexes will accelerate industry growth.
 

Rising commercial construction activities, particularly the establishment of large shopping centers will propel the demand for sophisticated x-ray security screening systems. These devices enable faster and more accurate scanning of people as well as products such as bags, and luggage. Rapidly modernizing infrastructure and public needs have led to a substantial rise in the number of mega malls, and hypermarkets in recent years. As a result, advanced security screening systems are swiftly replacing aging inspection techniques as they are extremely time-consuming and prone to errors. The ability of scanners to effectively detect hazardous materials and weapons in hidden compartments of bags is accelerating the deployment of these technologies in public spaces.
 

Dearth of substantial capital resources to hinder X-ray security screening system market dynamics

Need for significant capital resources may impede the deployment of X-ray security screening systems. The entire process of procuring an x-ray scanning device right from purchase to installation of the security hardware and the cost of components is capital-intensive. These devices require frequent maintenance to ensure that the equipment is functioning well. Additionally, the process of installation and maintenance depends on technical interventions, which further adds to the overall expenses of these systems. However, ongoing innovation and integration of technologies such as AI, deep learning, and machine learning will enhance the performance capabilities of X-ray security screening devices.
 

X-Ray Security Screening System Market Analysis

X-ray security screening system market size from solution segment is anticipated to exhibit over 4% CAGR between 2023-2032. Over the last decade, screening authorities have accelerated the demand for high-performance solutions capable of identifying hazardous substances and objects to mitigate potential threats. Technological advancements have introduced full-body screening solutions designed for public venues that are often exposed to security threats and terrorist activities. Meanwhile, X-ray screening solutions are also gaining momentum across applications such as the scanning of cargo, and shipping containers. A surge in e-commerce freight activities is propelling the use of X-ray scanners to differentiate non-threat objects from prohibited objects.
 

In terms of revenue share, people screening devices are estimated to reach over USD 3 billion by 2032. A dramatic growth in the number of terrorist attacks has accelerated the need for accurate security scanners and detection devices. High rate of sophisticated crimes is compelling nations to deploy advanced screening systems to detect and prevent terrorist attacks. Airports are increasingly deploying body scanners to trace prohibited items on the traveler including weapons, drugs, and chemicals.
 

X-ray security screening systems market valuation from transportation applications is projected to surpass USD 3 billion by 2032. Airports, railway stations, metro stations, and bus stations remain the key target areas for terrorists as they are largely crowded spaces. Various developing, and underdeveloped regions lack a robust security infrastructure in metro stations, which increases the risk of terrorist activities. favorable government regulations and significant investments in public security are further accelerating the use of X-ray screening in transportation.
 

Asia Pacific x-ray security screening system market is projected to expand at over 5% CAGR from 2023-2032. A surge in the development of novel large-scale commercial projects and significant investments in infrastructure development makes APAC a perfect hotspot for X-ray security screening system providers. In recent years, the retail sector across India, and China has experienced sizeable growth with the rapid rise in the construction of mega complexes, and shopping centers. As a result, the need for X-ray security screening devices is high among APAC countries to ensure the safety of the constantly escalating population.

COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19 pandemic had a slightly negative impact on the X-ray security screening system industry outlook. The emergence of the novel pandemic led to significant disruptions on commercial, and industrial levels. Due to the fast spread of the virus and a surge in hospitalization and mortality rate associated with COVID-19, governments worldwide imposed very strict lockdown restrictions. These new norms led to a partial to complete shutdown of commercial infrastructures such as airports, thus reducing the need for security screening devices.
 

In April 2020, the daily security screenings at U.S. airports plummeted to 87,534 hit by the pandemic. However, with reducing infection rate, and easing pandemic-related restrictions, air travel is picking pace. For instance, the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) reported that the number of people passing through security checkpoints reached 2,081,297 on December 22, 2021, twice that of the previous year, and 7% more than in 2019.
