The global safety switch market size is expected to expand a considerable CAGR of 4.11% during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of market is attributed to increasing demand of automated production equipment such as a safety switch.
Safety switch is a device used to instantly turns off the power supply if an electrical faulty is detected. By shutting off the power supply automatically, this decreases the chance of electrical fires, electric shock injuries, and death. These switches are widely used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, and aerospace and also many businesses use safety switches in workplace to avoid workplace risks, protect employees, and achieve corporate safety regulations.
The Covid-19 pandemic affected the supply chain of safety switch market. Lockdown across the globe, supply chain disorders and oscillating supply raw material forced manufacturers to shut down production leading to unfortunate decline in market growth.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Operator safety is most important for any robot and machine installations, safety switches are commonly found in automated production equipment, and they perform an important function, which are projected to boost the market.

Market Segment Insights
The non-contact segment is expected to grow at a high CAGR
Based on type, the global safety switch market is bifurcated into electromagnetic and non-contact. The non-contact segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to its application in accurate guidance of guards. These gadgets are usually long-lasting, need little maintenance, and are shock and vibration resistant. A non-contact safety switch is usually made up of two parts a sensor and an actuator. When utilizing a non-contact safety switch, the machine must be able to stop quickly enough because this sort of switch will not prevent from opening the door. Smaller and medium-sized machines have a shorter stopping time.
Industrial segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace
Based on end-user the global safety switch market is divided into industrial, commercial, and oil & gas. The end-user segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to safety switches are used in various industries, such as oil & gas, manufacturing, material handling, and power generation industries, which is projected to drive the market. These safety switches are essential for safe and efficient operation in hazardous environments such as grain elevators, offshore drilling, petrochemical and waste treatment plants, paint booths, and hazardous waste processing facilities. Safer working environment is a need of current market. According to JISHA, the mining and construction industries set a new record in 2017 with over 450 accident events (Japan Industrial Health and Safety Association).
Asia Pacific is anticipated to constitute a key market share
In terms of regions, the global safety switch market is classified as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Asia-Pacific is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the projected period due to highly-growing use of safety switches in the region. However, Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to growing industrialization, and expanding manufacturing activities help to drive the market.
