Various factors, such as the need for more international airports, increasing passenger traffic globally and need for stringent security measures to combat terrorist activities are expected to drive the growth of the airport full body scanner market from 2016 to 2021.
The market is segregated on the basis of technology, sub-type, airport class, and geography. The technology segment includes millimeter wave scanner and backscatter x-ray scanner, in which the millimeter wave scanner segment is estimated to grow at the highest rate among other technologies. The millimeter wave scanner is further segmented into passive and active scanner. The passive scanner market is expected to hold the largest share due to non-emission of artificial rays to screen the human body.
By airport class, the AFBS market is segmented into Class A, Class B and Class C airports. The Class A segment is estimated to hold the largest market during the forecast period. This large share is attributed to high passenger traffic in these airports and need for sophisticated security measures to combat terror and criminal activities.
The millimeter radio-wave scanner is used in the international airports globally. The market is absent in the Middle East region due to privacy issues concerned with revealing images of passengers while screening. Whereas, the North America and the Europe regions have larger market shares in this segment. Europe is expected to show higher growth rate as compared to the Asia-Pacific region in the active millimeter wave scanner market. This is due to the non-emission of x-rays by the device that is harmful for the human body in the long term. The backscatter x-ray scanner is banned in the European region as the device can cause several malfunctions in the human body if used for screening.
The full body scanners are currently only installed in the international airports globally. The Class A airport is estimated to hold the largest share among all the airport classes. This largest share is attributed due to large number of installations in this airport class. As the passenger traffic is heavy in this airport class, it is a necessity to install high tech security equipment such as a full body scanner.
North America is one of the fastest growing markets for airport full body scanners considering the advancements in airports. This region has the highest number of international airports as compared to any other region where installation of full body scanners is a prerequisite.
This region is a leading manufacturer of security scanners, such as millimeter radio-wave scanner and backscatter x-ray scanner, and therefore, the demand for security scanners is huge at international airports, which has led to the rise in demand for airport full body scanner.
