The global airport passenger screening systems market size was USD 2 Bn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 4 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 10% during 2023–2031. The market growth is attributed to the increasing number of terrorist and unfriendly actions throughout the world; governments are beefing up their customs and border protection.
A passenger screening system is a system that scans people before they board a plane at an airport. Even after going through the automated screening system, travelers are usually manually inspected by police officers using a metal detector. However, due to the increase in aviation traffic, the demand for safe and effective screening systems has increased dramatically in recent years.
Improvements in present screening systems are critical since passengers remain an important aspect of airport operations, and their efficiency may help boost the airport's timely performance and operability. Commuter screening methods at airports have recently received more attention from both the government and commercial groups.
The number of people choosing to travel by plane is rapidly rising, making it challenging for airports to accommodate such a large influx of passengers. Furthermore, when the number of passengers increases, the security measures that must be taken must also increase, necessitating increased expenditure on passenger screening equipment.
Airport security authorities are using narcotic and chemical trace detectors to make detection easier. Technology advancements have enabled higher precision, speed, and reliability in the detection of a wide spectrum of compounds than ever before.
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the demand and supply of the airport passenger screening systems market. Lockdowns across the globe, supply chain disorders, and oscillating supply of raw materials forced manufacturers to shut down production leading to an unfortunate decline in market growth.
Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market Dynamics
The global airport passenger screening systems market report has up-to-date insights that help in formulating a strategic roadmap about the estimated market scenario and performance during 2023 to 2031.
What are the Drivers of the Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market?
Increasing need for airport security
The increasing need for airport security screening is driving the growth of the airport passenger screening market. The number of terrorists and hostile activities is increasing customs and border security all over the world. Furthermore, rising demand for biometric technology from airports in emerging and developed economies is projected to fuel the market in the coming years.
What Restraints the Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market?
High installation cost and maintenance cost
High installation cost and maintenance cost of security solutions is expected to hinder market expansion. However, strict regulations imposed by the governments regarding the safety of airport passengers further restrain the airport passenger screening systems market. Moreover, the lack of skilled labor act as a key factor that can restrict the market growth during the forecast period.
What are the Opportunities in the Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market?
Development of terrestrial laser scanners
The development of terrestrial laser scanners (TLS) is estimated to create lucrative opportunities for market players. Airport authorities have become strict with the passenger’s luggage and baggage screening policies to maintain security and efficiency facilities, which is expected to increase air traffic in the coming years.

Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market Segment Insights
What are the Major Reasons for Rising Sales in Advanced Imaging Technology Segment?
Based on type, the airport passenger screening systems market is divided into metal detectors, full-body scanners, advanced imaging technology, explosive trace detectors, and others. The advanced imaging technology segment is anticipated to dominate the market, due to the increasing investments of airport authorities. It safely screens the passenger without any physical contact for both metallic and non-metallic threats. It uses the narrow, computed tomography, low-energy x-ray beam that scans the surface of the body.
The full body scanners segment is expected to expand at a significant growth rate during the projection period, due to privacy concerns. Full body scanners are prohibited in some countries, prompting the development of advanced imaging technology, which is an advanced body scanner.
Body scanners based on sophisticated imaging techniques are expensive and are presently being used in certain airports to replace full-body and metal detectors. As a result, the advanced imaging technology category is expected to increase the most throughout the projection period.
What are the Main Aspects for Boosting the Domestic Airport Segment?
On the basis of airport type, the market is segregated into international airport and domestic airport. The domestic airport segment is projected to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. The German government has ordered the installation of full-body scanners in the domestic airport, which is expected to increase in the global market.
Why is Asia Pacific Dominating the Global Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market?
In terms of region, the global airport passenger screening systems market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period, due to the modernization of existing airport facilities and the development of new airports, mostly in developing countries such as India, China, Vietnam, and Thailand.
